    World Cup 2022 European Qualifiers

    10 groups for 13 places at the World Cup 2022 in Qatar




    Only Groups G and H look tough, the rest should be quite straightforward for the top seeds.

    England get Andorra AND San Marino in the same group . We can probably play Chitty and Dil up front in that group and still qualify.

    I don't fancy Lu's chances too much though.

    Group I looks totally open to me


    Group F will have a repeat of the insanely intense matches between Faroe Islands and Scotland.

    I reckon that if you read group F from the bottom up, it will give you the eventual standings.

    I flipped channels to see if there was any footy on and caught a couple of minutes.

    They had a bit of dramatic music *every* time a ball was drawn, followed by some meaningless statistic about the team.

    "Finland went four games unbeaten during qualifying in 2008" or some such shit.

    It was cringeworthy.

    England 1 up already against the worst national team in the world San Marino.

    Nothing less than 10 is acceptable against a side who's country is the size of Glossop.

    Southgate experimenting with a new starting 11 and no Man utd players.

    Nevertheless an entertaining try out.

    Stephen Kenny continues his run of 9 played 0 wins with a national managerial win % of 0.00%.

    The year 2020 saw 8 played, 0 won, 1 goal.



    It's actually quite impressive.

    "19 - Republic of Ireland's Gavin Bazunu is the first teenage goalkeeper to start a European World Cup qualifying match since Slovenia's Jan Oblak in September 2012. Faith."


    Might as well have faith, because there's fok all else to have.

    Well, at least he kept the famous footballing nation of Luxembourg down to just the 1.

    Ireland 0 -1 Luxembourg



    I think it's time to dig out the old "his dad had a pint of Guinness once" line.

    Oh dear . . .

    The following brings up two questions, at least:



    Why is Qatar in this competition?

    Why did Germany only beat Iceland by 3 and why are there no Eeeengerlund fans laughing at this measly result?

    Oh, I remember why:

    I'm not that bothered by In-ger-land if truth be told.

    My team is United and I really couldn't give a major fuck about England and our dickhead fans in all honesty. It was just a bit of fun that I had with Lu a few years ago, but I'll be happy if they do well. Nothing more if it's a win or a loss (most probably a loss).

    I'm still English after all.

    England fans, for me, are Brexit voters and City fans like Chitty. Right wing tossers who read the Daily Mail. I have nothing in common with them and most reds think the same.

    Not my cup of tea at all, but Chitty's a nice lad and I'd happily have a pint with him again. Despite the fact he's a Daily Mail reading tosser.
