**Upbeat Mood Returns to Scotland After Clarke Navigates Nations League Challenges** Key players have regained their form, and manager Steve Clarke has demonstrated impressive skill in his role following a dramatic victory over Poland.

However, a disappointing performance there—particularly the way the team exited—sparked discussions about the need for a new manager ahead of World Cup qualifying. The team's three consecutive defeats at the start of the Nations League only intensified calls for change. It’s important to remember that Clarke was the one who initially raised expectations, achieving tournament qualifications that his predecessors had failed to secure, despite receiving significant media praise.
