St Mirren keeper Paul Gallacher is not too downhearted about his Scotland prospects despite the possible return of Allan McGregor to the international fold.
After George Burley was sacked on Monday, SFA chief executive Gordon Smith revealed that his replacement would be free to pick Rangers keeper McGregor, who, along with Barry Ferguson, was banned from representing Scotland after flicking V-signs at photographers during April's World Cup qualifier against Iceland.
"When a new man comes in and if I'm playing well and I get in then, I will be absolutely delighted," said Gallacher. "But at the moment there are three goalkeepers ahead of me."
The former Dundee United and Norwich City player was drafted into the squad for the friendly against Wales in Cardiff last week, after winning the last of his eight caps in a 1-0 win in Estonia in May 2004.
Burley sent for Gallacher after number one Craig Gordon pulled out with a fractured arm but David Marshall played in the 3-0 defeat with Jamie Langfield on the bench.
"I think there are three friendlies before the next championship qualifiers kick-off," he said.
"It was because Craig Gordon got injured that I got back in the squad but nevertheless I was back in and it was something that I didn't think would happen again.
"If you look at Craig, the performances he has put in for Scotland are second to none.
"Nobody can say that he doesn't deserve to be the number one, he has been fantastic and the Tartan Army adore him and rightly so."
