    Very hard group for Serbia, but I'm happy because I wanted Scotland in our group. Game against Croatia will be crazy as always, but I hope that there won't be any troubles on and off the pitch. Looking forward to see Tartan army in Belgrade. :bbpd:

    I beleive we can play the game without riots. Forbid Croatian fans to come to Belgrade, forbid Serbian fans to come to Zagreb (probably) and the problem is solved. It will not be interested game without the fans, but it is better to watch boring game without the troubles than interesting one with riots.
    Looking forward to see Tartan army in Belgrade.

    The no away fans solution is ok. But who says the players wouldn't do a big brawl? a harsh tackle could spark violence of unseen proportions.

    FYR Macedonia, Serbia and Croatia in the same group??? * *!!! Don't see Scotland qualifying from that group. Serbia and Croatia will both pump Scotland. We'll struggle against Macedonia as well I think

    as for belgium splitting. even if it does happen soon, i think the Francophone part of the country will ascede to France so there would still only be one Belgian team, Flemish Belgium

    Scotland will fare better than both Serbia and Croatia, because these 2 teams have lazy players. Players not giving a * about the NT will ruin the favorites.

    I can't wait for the qualifiers. Mainly because I expect them to go the same way the 2006 qualifiers went for Mexico. They're walking to the WC.

    They are professionals, and as I can see, Serbian players do not try hard for their national team like they do for their clubs. I think the players will behave properly.

    I agree.

    Maybe FIFA tries to make impossible that 3 teams from ex Yugoslavia qualify for WC?
    When we talk about Belgium, if they split, Flemish part could ascede to Holland?

    Really looking forward to this. Looks like a real competitive group with any team able to take points of each other. Think Scotland have a slight chance but will most likely finish 3rd or 4th. I think Belgium will surprise quite a few people, they have a really good young team with a lot of potential.

    Belgium will suffer because of separation issues. I fear little from them. Scotland will be first. Sweden is unlikely to lose to Croatia, but they won't win, either. Same against Serbia. Likely standings: 1. Scotland 2. and 3. Serbia and Croatia, don't know who'll be in which place. 4. Sweden 5.-7. The rest.

    The only reason England have such a high ranking is them getting *-easy groups in every tournament qualifier. They squeeze through and their ranking gets higher. It's a vicious circle.

    Quite happy with the group to be honest, I think on our day with a full strength team we could take points off anyone in the group.

    What are you on!?

    Sweden is not in our group!?:56:

    There will be no riots in Croatia-serbia games, 'cos it's been a long time since we got rid of their * country:bbpd:, and frankly nobody gives a * about them anymore. We just love them the way the Scots love the english:47:.
    In fact, I expect both games to be quite dull affairs, both probably ending up as draws.
    Macedonia away could easily be our biggest threat, as they won't play against serbia as hard as against us.
    Personally, I'd love us to win the group, with Scotland up in 2nd, and serbia at the bottom, but it would defo not end up like that.
    If we get rid of Bilic and play our football, we'd finish 1st easily.
    Sadly, and realisticaly, I don't think Scotland can finish in top 3 here, maybe even in top 4.:54:

    I think we can qualify. Will be tough, especially against Croatia, but we can beat any one of those teams at home. So we just need to pick up as many points as possible on the road.

    it was great game last time when we played in zagreb against macedonia... we were 1-0 down and then srna stroke from free kick and after that eduardo scored for 2-1... but croatian don't have problems with macedonians and their fans...

    and i think that croatia will fight serbia for 1st place and scotland, belgium and macedonia will be competing for 3rd place.. wales will be at the bottom of the table...

    possibly but i think flemish seperatists/nationalists are stronger than those who want to join nederlands

    did crvena zvezda vs dinamo and bobans kick at a bosnian copper (who he thought was a serb) not symbolically mark the start of the war?

    with that history and the fact that serbia v italy had to be abandoned due to riots, i dont think croatia vs serbia will be pretty
