Back down to a brace again, his first has been ruled an own goal.

The world qualifiers just confirmed my thoughts on each of the home nations and Eire

England do just about enough might even beat a decent team in Russia. No further than the second round

Wales too reliant on the pace of bale. Have played to their full potential and remain a little short

Scotland need a decent manager and to treat every game as if they were playing England

Northern Ireland typical championship team some good players but miss a class striker. Their overall performance in the first leg of the play offs was poor hence good night Vienna

The republic. Unable to step up against better teams.

The Argentina match was in Krasnodar, Russia. Makes sense to try to acclimatise, I guess.
I think there is a bit of difference in November and June temperatures so not much point in acclimatising now.

That sounds familiar a bit like if they are managed by Martin O’Neil.

He might need a neck brace after the gormless fuckers piled on top:

Very overrated player.  His brother is doing time for armed robbery

I seem to remember that Sir Graham was very keen to sign him from Milwall, he must have been about 10:years old at the time.  Very gòod in the air

Sunderland have sold 210 tickets so far for our game on Tuesday. Quite mad how their support has gone.

No, it was Sir Graham. Gregory was trying to sign Muzzy Izzet forever.
