You OBVIOUSLY dont understand the tactics of the SFA.
The plan it to never actually win the cup.
The true plan is to qualify, thus letting thousands of Scots blokes wave the wife bye-bye for a couple of weeks abroad.
Scotland then MUST be knocked out in the 1st stage of the finals.
It then means that the cash that would be spent on tickets is then available for spending on beer and having a good time in foreign climes.
This can be done safely as you can pretty much guarantee that getting knocked out of the tournament will NOT send the Scots fans on a murderous rampage of violence (look at what happened to thap poor Croydon Tram in the European Cup a few years back) but will encourage better international relations as they have a few more drinks with the locals.
Its all about caring for your fans.
