Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I whakaae a Gordon Strachan i te Rātū kei te anga atu ia ki tētahi raruraru nui mō wai hei rangatira mo Scotland. Kei te whakataetae a Darren Fletcher me te rangatira o Celtic, a Scott Brown mo te whitiki ringa i mua i te whakataetae hoa o te Wenerei me Northern Ireland me te whakataetae Euro o te Ratapu me Gibraltar. Ko Brown te whiriwhiri a Strachan i te wa i ngaro a Fletcher me te mate pukupuku pukupuku, i runga ranei i te papa mo nga whakataetae o te ao. Ko te kaitakawaenga o Scotland a Darren Fletcher (maui) kua rite ano, kua rite ki te tiimata mo te taha o Gordon Strachan. Ko te rangatira o te kapa Celtic a Scott Brown te rangatira o Scotland i te kore o Fletcher. Mai i te wehenga atu o Manchester United ki West Brom i te marama o Hanuere, heoi, ko te 31-tau-tau te kereme ki te taapiri ki ana 66 kapa i nga keemu e haere ake nei. Na ka whakaae a Strachan: "He whakatau uaua taku ki te whakatau". Kei te ngana ahau kia uru katoa te katoa ki ngā kēmu. E hiahia ana ahau kia tika ki ngā kaiwhakahaere karapu. I tēnei wā, kāore au i kōwhiri i te kapa, nō reira kāore au e taea te kōwhiri i tētahi rangatira. Ka whiriwhiria e ahau te kapa, ka whai whakaaro ahau. E mea ana te kaiwhakahaere o Scotland, a Strachan, kāore ia i te mōhio ko wai tōna rangatira mō ngā tukinga e haere ake nei. I wehe atu a Fletcher i a Manchester United i te matapihi whakawhiti o Hanuere, a ko ia inaianei te rangatira o West Brom. E mōhio ana ahau ki te pūnaha, e mōhio ana ngā kaitākaro ki te pūnaha. Kei a au hoki ētahi atu whakatau hei whakatau. Ko wai te kaitiaki? Ko wai te mea nui i mua? Ko wai te kaitākaro whanui? He nui ngā whakataunga hei whakatau.<unk> Kei a Strachan te tata ki te kapa katoa hei whiriwhiri mo nga keemu e rua <unk> me Ross McCormack anake te karanga.
Ka tākaro a Scotland ki Ireland ki te Raki i te whakataetae hoa i Hampden Park i te Wenerei. Ko te kapa a Gordon Strachan e aro atu ana ki a Gibraltar i te whakataetae tohu Euro 2016 i te Ratapu. Ko Scott Brown o Celtic te rangatira o te kapa i te kore o Darren Fletcher. E whakaae ana a Strachan kei te raru ia inaianei kua ora a Fletcher.
