I hope you didn’t go. It was absolutely diabolical.

I’ve decided what is bothering me now. I have been thinking that things are a bit better under Berti, but I have worked it out now. Under Criag Brown, he picked terrible players. Every time a squad came out, I shook my head and complained. But then, throughout the majority of his reign, he got those terrible players to over-achieve. Now, Berti Vogts is picking the players I want. I liek the squads, I am enthused by them. And yet the players under-achieve, almost don’t even try under him.

Why can’t we have both?

But I was thinking last night, when we fail to qualify for Euro 2004, and we will fail, even if it means losing through a qualifier, and Berti loses his job, who are we really going to get to replace him? Seriously? I couldn’t think of a single suitable replacement who would actually take the job. Strachan/Moyes etc would all be great, but it ain’t going to happen. I think that worries me most. That we’ll end up with Willie Miller in charge.

But we went with a flat back four in the second half, and it seemed better. But I’m a fan of that idea, always have been. As Souness said on Sky last night at half time, all our defenders play in a back four week in, week out, so surely that should be the system we play?

We were better in the second half, but still not good.

I don’t want to talk about it any more. It makes me weep.

I think I would go for Tommy Sheridan. Instil a bit of pride? I bet he’d get them going for the England matches.
