Gordon Strachan is not a happy boy.

His side have let their advantage over Ireland in Group D slip. The Scots now one point adrift of Martin O'Neill's men with three games left in the race for the third-place playoff spot for Euro '16. Their loss to Georgia on Friday evening was somewhat of a choke at the wrong time but the manager wasn't happy as he gave a tetchy post-match press conference. https://twitter.com/mrewanmurray/status/639868434034114560 https://twitter.com/mrewanmurray/status/639868533564964865 But his night probably got better after the questions from a critical media. Right? https://twitter.com/mrewanmurray/status/639881555469565953 Not so. The Scottish are stranded in Georgia after someone somewhere cocked up their return flight. They won't arrive home until 6am on Saturday morning. Then they just have the small matter of playing the world champions on Monday. Good luck to the poor lad who had to break that news to Gordon. https://twitter.com/tedermeatballs/status/639881677217624065
