And that penalty wasn't a penalty

yeah it was outside the area but rooneys goal was offside , so they kinda cancel each other out.

Ah,okay..Didn't see the match, just saw the highlights, but they didn't mention the offside.

it wasnt a huge amount he was just slightly in front.
On The Edge of Insanity:
Scotland lost as well. May have no British teams in Euro 2008 at this rate.
K.Dub:
Norway is leading in Sarajevo 8)
Sweet & Tender Hooligan:
Dissapointing result. DOnt know what to say really, cant really blame injuries because Georgia were without there big names as well. Although i do feel Brown, Hutton and Mculloch are more influential then the georgians who were missing.
You can look at it 2 ways, either Scotland wont lose at Hampden because its Hampden, one of the most formidable and intimidating atmospheres in world football and Italy, France, Germany and Holland have all failed to win there in the last 5 years.
or
Italy will win because its Italy, with too much experience to bottle it and will do the business, get 3 points when they really need to.
EIther way, its the biggest Scottish game in 10 years, and when was the last time something like this happened to Italy? Its gonna be huge.
On a side note, just watch out for dodgy refereeing decisions in Italy's favour. I will leave all the conspiracy stuff to Seven, but what will UEFA think of the world champions not competing in the Europen championship? Will they feel that the standard and the reputation of the tournament has been lowered, and neutral fans wont come to see, say, Scotland versus Finland? Scotland will need 2 play very smart, keep their tempers in check and not give Italians an excuse to dive and roll around because IMO if there is to be a major refereeing decision, it will go against Scotland.
Oh and the thought of Scotland being the sole British team at Euro 2008 is quite frankly, pant moistening.
K.Dub:
We won 2-0 ;D
