Clarke's ambition is clear after World Cup qualifying draw ahead of what will likely be his last campaign
Steve Clarke saw Scotland’s road map to the next World Cup drawn in Switzerland –then promised to lead the Tartan Army all the way to the finals in two years.
“We appreciate the Tartan Army wants to be there as well. We know that when we do qualify for a major tournament the Tartan Army are desperate to be there. They showed that in Germany in the summer and hopefully we can take them to the USA, Mexico and Canada. “The fact we’ve already seen so many supporters renewing their memberships, it shows that the supporters buy in to this team and what we’re trying to achieve.
Ironically, Scotland drew at home to Portugal in October to set up a double header with the Greeks in March in the play-offs for a place in the top level of the Nations League. And Clarke also oversaw a 2-0 home win over Denmark in October 2021 in the last ill-fated World Cup campaign. “We know the Pot One game is going to be difficult but we’ve shown over the past few games that we can handle teams at that level. Looking at Denmark, that victory at Hampden in 2021 was a memorable night.
