Celtic's Shaun Maloney has withdrawn from the Scotland squad for the match with Japan and has been replaced by Dundee United's Scott Robertson, the SFA have confirmed.

Scotland boss George Burley had already lost Danny Fox, Robert Snodgrass, Kevin Thomson and Garry O'Connor from the squad for Saturday's friendly game in Yokohama.

Defender Lee Wallace of Hearts was called up to the senior squad for the first time, joined by striker Lee Miller of Aberdeen.

  4. i knew this would happen with Scotland as soon as the­ qualifiers were over, all of a sudden everyone and his­ granny are injured for the friendly in Japan, yes you­ can argue about going all the way to Japan but if you­ dont have your full squad available for the friendlies­ then dont expect the manager to get it right first time­ when qualifying comes round again, im afraid we're­ back where we started, and it's not looking good,­ it's very annoying when you think how well we­ played recently, i dont envy George Burley, and as for­ the people who want him sacked, who would they have, oh­ yes Walter Smith, who, like the players, enjoys the­ qualifying games but chucks it when it's over,­ fantastic.

  6. doesnt matter at all who he puts on the field. You­ cant make a chicken sandwich from chicken @#$%. The­ SFA has had no vision at the youth level to create­ players that can compete at the international level.
