John B is taking a little break so he has handed over the podcast reigns to Josh once more. Joining him to look back at Scotland's visit to Croatia ahead of hosting Portugal are regulars Charlie, Dave and Krys as well as Andy of DUFC Stats fame.
The guys reflect on yet another defeat for the national side, meaning it's now just one win in fifteen matches, although they try to put some context around that.
Looking across the squad, they try to anticipate/hope what the team might be for the Portugal match and look for some of the positives that might have come from all the injuries. Mostly they start with "B" and end in "en Doak".
There's the inevitable discussion around what could/should happen if/when Steve Clarke's time is up, with a couple of left field suggestions for who might come in to replace him - be it after the Nations League campaign or after World Cup qualifying (and preferably the World Cup itself).
There's also a bit of fun at the end as we try to imagine who might be a good Scottish Football campmate in the jungle.

John, Charlie, Josh and Laurie are on as we reflect on the double header in Nations League A.
There is plenty of discussion with us starting off by analysing how we thought everyone played against Poland.
Clarke changed to a four at the back which fans were pleading for him to do. Did it make a huge difference in terms of performance levels?
Once again there is chat about Clarke's future and who the alternatives might be if he was to go. The pressure continues due to the recent record in competitive matches especially.
The introduction of Doak was a positive and leads to a strong reaction from Josh.
Once again on Sunday, Scotland were the victims of conceding a late goal which is becoming a worrying habit. We discuss the performance against Portugal and whether tactically the approach was correct.
Let us know your thoughts on the episode and make sure to give us a follow on our social media.
