. . . funny but understandable.

It says right there next to the fixture.

I've always thought of United as being more 'right wing' than City, due to their more yobbish fan base and their SE England following.

Chitty is the exception that proves the rule.

Can the FAI bring back Roy Keane?

Not as manager, just to smack the head off Stephen every time they don't win.

Luxembourg.

That's embarrassing.

They should follow Big Jack's approach and get loads of players in who aren't Irish.

How's yer long ball play Syb, center back or deep lying playmaker?

Ears are burning here

England cruising against Albania with FOURCity players in the 11.

Why do peeps have to bring politics into sport?

Nice to see Hal coming out of hiding until the Tottenham away game

Because the Kraut has a hard on for Brits and Hal, well he's a lovely leftie boy.

Well that explains why they could only put two past them.

I take it Sterling was playing then.

How many did the flat track pony miss this time then?

That Harry Kane interview afterwards was funny.

After every sentence he said "erm".

I'm no Cyrille but he must have said "erm" 50 times.

^ you'd struggle to get into three digits IQ wise with most starting 11s

Seems football 'powers' are no longer that . . . though Denmark . . .



Kazakstan, Romania, Bulgaria and Albania . . . embarrassing results again.

Reminds me of the Ian Rush quote about his time in Italy...

We went 1-1 against Israel in a statistically even encounter, though the reports suggest we had the edge.

It must've been confusing for my step father, who is a born again, pro Israel, rangers supporting, flat earther, unionist hun cnut.

Denmark though.

Left of centre me, it's the only logical way to be.

Scotland should have won against Israel.

Nice to see fans back in a stadium.

It seems possible that you don’t understand football.

That's putting it mildly.

I don't know much about European football, and I don't follow the news much, but, when did Israel move to Europe?
The Palestinians must be relieved.

If it's said once and in jest, why would there be a problem - if it's incessant and nasty then that's a different issue. I didn't react to NPT's 'kraut' snark because it's a football thread and he hasn't gone on about it.

Simple.

Because I included England in the 'power' line - true, I was being kind. (I did forget to circle Spain's sad win)

Same reason they're in the Eurovision and others . . . can you imagine them playing in certain ME countries?

Republic skipper Seamus Coleman offered a withering assessment of the game by describing it as a "horrible and embarrassing" night.

Kenny has been given the dreaded 'chairman's backing'.

Should be sacked after these fixtures are done.

Roy Keane as manager would be good for a laugh.

I think playing Qatar tonight could be a defining moment.



(P.S. Scotland play the Faroes tomorrow... )

Annnnyyyway, setting aside tribal differences.

England's game against Poland tonight, luckily Lew, Lewad, Lewandoffski, Leward...oh FFS lables. Anyway Poland's top striker is out which given how they've scraped by Europe's sex and drug trafficking specialists and some province in Italy that's a good thing.

Qatar are quite a strong team.

I presume VAR will be part of WC2022.


What's Paddy Power giving on all 17 group stage goals against Qatar being ruled out?
