“A thread of soon to be deleted comments” – The Anthony Ralston trolling spectacularly backfires

There really is no more to be said than what the title highlights.
As Vital Celtic reported last night, Anthony Ralston, was given his first, and long overdue, start for Scotland.
A scoring debut and a Man of the Match performance didn’t really come as a surprise to the Celtic fans, but to others, they were simply unhappy about the full backs selection for the 2-0 win over Armenia.
And they were not shy in saying so as highlighted by this twitter account:

Some of the comments though should, at least, make these ‘football fans’ reevaluate some life choices.
For example, maybe football isn’t the game for them?
Enjoy this unadulterated thread of complete and utter lunacy from the Scotland National Teams official Twitter thread:
Ralston in because he had a good game in September.

Idk how to feel about this team. The right players taken out, but for the right players?
Also, Ralston over Patterson? 1-0 down already https://t.co/OWqkYcAgN1

Ralston wouldn’t get a game for an amateur team wee man.

You would think that all these ‘Scotland fans’ would be happy to be proved wrong? Right?
