I only saw the highlights but yeah, losing Fletcher was a blow but hardly an excuse for the overall performance. Scotland are now in the embarrassing position of being lumped in with nations like San Marino that more people are arguing should now have to pre qualify for major tournaments. Common sense for San Marino but a total humiliation for Scotland. Not that I think it would've made a huge difference but I'm surprised Joe Jordan wasn't given the task of rebuilding things after Craig Levein went.
