Norwich City duo Russell Martin and Robert Snodgrass have been called up to the Scotland squad for next week’s friendly against Australia.
The duo are part of a 24-man squad for the game at Easter Road on Wednesday, August 15 just three days before the Canaries’ Premier League bow at Fulham.
Norwich’s summer signing Steven Whittaker is not included in Craig Levein’s squad with the former Rangers man set to miss the start of the season after damaging ankle ligaments in the recent friendly win at Celtic. City boss Chris Hughton could also be without the likes of John Ruddy and Steve Morison for part of the the final week of pre-season with England and Wales also in scheduled friendly action next week.
• Scotland squad to play Australia, Easter Road, Edinburgh
Charlie Adam (Liverpool), Barry Bannan (Aston Villa), Phil Bardsley (Sunderland), Christophe Berra (Wolverhampton Wanderers), Gary Caldwell (Wigan Athletic), Don Cowie (Cardiff City), Graham Dorrans (West Bromwich Albion), James Forrest (Celtic), Daniel Fox (Southampton), Matt Gilks (Blackpool), Grant Hanley (Blackburn Rovers), Alan Hutton (Aston Villa), Jamie Mackie (Queens Park Rangers), Shaun Maloney (Wigan Athletic), David Marshall (Cardiff City), Russell Martin (Norwich City), Allan McGregor (Besiktas), James Morrison (West Bromwich Albion), Charlie Mulgrew (Celtic), Steven Naismith (Everton), Matt Phillips (Blackpool), Jordan Rhodes (Huddersfield Town), Robert Snodgrass (Norwich City), Andy Webster (Heart of Midlothian)

Thing is Dubai, Holty only cost us £400K and while we got him from a L2 club, we were only in L1 ourselves at the time, and Holt had played higher than that for Forest, too.. £5.2million is a LOT of dosh for a player who has not yet performed above L1 standard.

Perhaps a 'Supergrass' song might suit... ^_^ Why would Huddersfield want to sell or trade their top scorer anyway? I had a Huddersfield fan mate back home that said they ran the club as a money making business, if they sell him I guess he was right...

I had to look up "Make way for Noddy" It's pretty funny and there is an obvious tempting rhyme...but you couldn't do that to our new man.

Nice one, Swiss. I'm working on...Snoddy, the little man with the green and yellow heart (struggling with that last word). Ideas?

I agree Dubai, we do need another striker and 2 full backs. 5.2m is a lot for someone with no proven goalscoring record in the Championship let alone the PL, but I suppose Holty proves it can be done. Hopefully, McN and Hoots are working on it. No doubt the boys at Ar-can't will be last to know.

I see, and there is no rioting in our inner cities this year due to the Olympics. Hmmm, maybe there was a overseas encouragement scheme sponsored by the Government to export this product this year. Now, can we please sign Rhodes and 2-3 Quality defenders ?

Getting the inside scoop on the latest transfer deals is hardly something that is likely to come out of a session in the Woolpack. What is happening with Jordan Rhodes - Huddersfield just rejected a £5.2m bid from Blackburn. Surely he wants to play in the PL ? Come on Chris, get the chequebook out - and while your at it, we still need 2 or 3 QUALITY defenders too ! OTBC

While England`s FA has silly old fools in blazers running it, Scotland`s has silly old fools in blazers & kilts. Over what extravagant dinner did they dream this one up? Almost beyond belief.

Goodness me, I hope our guys don't get crocked in this rather meaningless and badly timed friendly ! Whittaker is already crocked and will miss the start of the season - as well as this 'silly' game. Lets hope they come through unscathed. OTBC

Don't count on it, Ghana. I will be surprised if GH gets called up and, though it would be good to see GH in a England shirt, Heskey will probably get the call before he does.

Agree about the timing bluelight. They did the same thing last season, and we had less involvement - which of a sign of the good progress our squad is making. I'm always pleased to have internationals in the team. If the GB Team boys are a bit tired, maybe Holty will also get considered this time??

Never heard anyone complain about weekend sweetoilings before, haha. I understand the frustration though! I remember losing emails that'd taken me ages to type with no drafts or anything. Was a nightmare, what started as long thoughtful emails turned into angry one liners...
