Good night from me in Ronny's book but on this show it's not goodnight from him

Clarke and his Scotland story not at closing credits yet
Good night from me in Ronny's book but on this show it's not goodnight from him

LISBON is home to the world's oldest bookstore Bertrand, tucked away in the Chiado neighbourhood, opened its doors in 1732.

To this day, it is visited by authors from every part of the globe. A literary gem.

Last night in the same city, you couldn't help but wonder if Steve Clarke's story with Scotland might be nearing its conclusion.

That was before kick-off.

But after this curious tale of a football match, you have to say it's not about to end just yet.

If anything, after this Nations League performance in the Estadio da Luz against Portugal, there could well be a few more chapters left.

What happened here wasn't in the script beforehand... because no one would have quite believed it.

Going into this game, the fairy tale of that qualification campaign for Euro 2024 felt like ancient history.

And arriving in Portugal after a heartbreaking defeat to Poland three days earlier, this Nations League plot was already in danger of turning into some sort of tragedy.

Whether Clarke would get to start the next part of it the qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup - was up for debate.

Which seems strange given the epic saga he's written for the Tartan Army up to this point.

Let's go back to the start.

When he took charge of this Scotland team, it almost looked like a pointless, thankless task.

Never mind books, every painful loss inflicted on us could have been turned into a disaster movie.
