SOURCES AT THE SFA INDICATE THE FUTURE OF CRAIG LEVEIN WILL BE  TO BE DECIDED SOON

With the national team's hopes of playing in Brazil in 2014 all but over, will Levein be given the remainder of the World Cup qualifying campaign and beyond to restore some national pride?

Or will he pay the price with his job for recent poor results which see Scotland prop up Group A?

Craig Levein's Scotland record

  • Euro 2012 qualifiers: P 8 W 3 D 2 L 3
  • 2014 World Cup qualifiers: P 4 W 0 D 2 L 2
  • Nations Cup: P 3 W 2 D 0 L 1
  • Friendlies: P 9 W 5 D 1 L 3

 

There are few signs of progress, despite Levein's repeated claims that the team is heading in the right direction.

Three wins from 12 competitive games is a dismal return, and leaves Levein's record less impressive than much-maligned predecessors Berti Vogts and George Burley.

Had Scotland been going down with a brave fight or showing glimpses of brightness the outlook may be different, but the team have looked limp, staid and devoid of ideas in recent games. Thus supporters are becoming increasingly uninspired by the thought of following a Scotland side under the former Dundee United manager.
