Much ado about nothing

[Toomtabard]

Maybe i s the anuual summer shortage of good football stores/isues but the current Scotih football media feeding frenzy over whether Scottish international fotball manager, Craig Levien should play a Third Division player like Rangers Ian Black against Austalia at Easter Road is truly much ado about nothing.
Especially to septuagenarians like myself who can clearly recall when England fielded a Third Division South goalkeeper in a full international match against Auld Enemy England at Hampden Park in April 1956.
He was the late Reg Matthews of then English Third Division South club Coventry City.
Despite being the only Third Divison member of an English side that fielded great top division stars like Fulham's Johnny Haynes and Manchester United 's great but tragic Duncan Edwards and Preston's Tm Finney, Matthews played a blinder losing only one goal when Scotland and Aberdeen winger Grahm Leggat
beat Matthews with a spectacular lob(England equalised in injury time when Leggat's future Fulham team mate, Johnny Haynes scored).
Third Divison player Matthews then went on to play four more games for England where he ensured that England were undefeated in all four games beating Brazil 4-2 in London and West Germany in Berlin by 3-1.
Now, if Craig Levein and his Scotlandd players could go on a four game run which included wins ovr Brazil and Germany would Scttish international team fans bother their bucky what league Back was playing in?
I very much doubt it.
So Third Divison players in full internationals? Strictly deja vu to an old codger like me.! So what's the fuss about?
