Scotland will stay humble as they look to battle past Cyprus and keep themselves in the driving seat to qualify for Euro 2024, according to former national team striker Charlie Nicholas. Steve Clarke’s men are aiming for a fifth straight Group A win in Larnaca on Friday night, which, if other results go their way next week, could see Scotland’s place in the finals confirmed. Nicholas, who played for Scotland at the 1986 World Cup in Mexico, believes Clarke will not allow any thoughts of having already booked a ticket to Germany next summer as his team focus on showing the required mentality in the heat of the AEK Arena. “This is the first time I can ever recall being in a position of comfort in a group like this. It is a kind of weird experience,” Nicholas told the PA news agency. “Steve Clarke’s business as a manager is being serious, so the boys will stay humble – and I do think they will get it tough in Cyprus. “Now this becomes the most important one, because it would give us a really nice buffer if we were to win it, but it will be tight. “It will be in the heat, which obviously doesn’t complement us, but we have put ourselves in a great position so we must not let it slip now.” Scotland’s assistant coach John Carver has branded the current squad the “most focused group” he has ever worked with, having seen them beat Spain at Hampden Park in March and then win away in Norway. Nicholas added: “Looking at these guys, what you have got is a lot of important players playing at top football clubs – even with Kieran Tierney’s move, it is to a top club in Spain (at Real Sociedad). “There is a lot of knowledge in there and also with that desire – they will be told the whole truth when it comes to these qualifying games, because we are so close to it. “If we go and win in Cyprus, that doesn’t guarantee us (qualification), but it more or less does – and in Scotland we have learned never to take too much for granted. “They are a well-respected group with what they stand for together. There is no faking with these guys, they are bang on the money and know where they are trying to get to.” On September 17, Nicholas will be joining broadcaster Jeff Stelling when he takes on a 34th marathon Football March for Prostate Cancer UK, from Wembley to Wycombe Wanderers, in honour of the late Bill Turnbull. Former Celtic and Arsenal striker Nicholas lost his father, Chic, to prostate cancer, which affects one in eight men, in December 2009. The Scot stressed the importance of early diagnosis, which brings with it more options for advanced treatments such as radiotherapy and better life outcomes. “I think we (men) are a bit afraid about it, because you don’t want to turn up at the doctors and think you are going to get bad news,” Nicholas said. “It is scary and it is not nice to go and find out – but the thing is if you have symptoms, then just go and get it checked. “Because if you sadly have got it and they can spot it early enough, that actually puts you in a good position. It might not sound like it, but you really are.” :: Jeff Stelling’s Football March 2023 is sponsored by specialist cancer care provider GenesisCare.

An Amazon delivery driver quickly learned why the customer asked them to leave their package outside the fence after two large dogs came charging. For some homeowners, their dogs are not only seen as pets but as guardians to protect their property from intruders. When ordering online, this can create issues for delivery drivers, as one discovered. A viral clip was shared by @culiacankennels who wrote: “When the instructions say leave the products outside the fence.” The delivery driver, seemingly missing these instructions, proceeded to gently try and place the parcel on the other side of the fence. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter But, before he had time to put it on the ground, two large dogs came running over, and one jumped and grabbed the parcel from the delivery driver's hands that were through the fence. The two dogs then tore the cardboard box to shreds on the front lawn. @culiacankennels Wait for it…. #fyp #canecorso #culiacansinaloa #dogsoftiktok #italianmastiff #tiktokdogs While some appeared concerned by the dogs’ behaviour, others just felt bad for the delivery driver who was just trying to do the logical thing and avoid the parcel being stolen. “Yeah, seems odd to leave those instructions. He thought he was being considerate,” one TikToker reasoned. Another said: “Train those beasts sheesh.” Someone else wrote: “Poor guy. He was trying to make sure the packages don’t get stolen and it backfired lol.” One TikToker joked: “I love unboxing videos.” To stop it from happening again, someone else suggested: “Maybe specify WHY to leave packages outside.” “‘Package handed directly to resident’,” another said.
