I guess the English will go and steal Ferguson now just to top it off.

I don’t think that’s possible as he’s played in several competitive games for Ireland.

Mike, it is very BNP to be doing threads gloating about Scotland and Ireland losses

Given that they all pray for England to lose every game we play, this suggests that all Irish, Scottish and Welsh people are BNP.

Personally, I always want all the GB and Ireland teams to win except of course when they play England. I'm very much hoping the Ireland win the RWC because they deserve to.

I thought he was still under the threshold for it, I know the last time they played there was a lot of talk about it.

He’s already publicly said there’s no way he’d play for England I think

Said specifically - it wouldn't be a good fit as he doesn't bottle penos. lol

I don’t know what the rules are, but it would be absolutely stupid if he was allowed to switch now.

I do not pray for England to lose, how ridiculous.
I make sacrifices

Its not a matter of praying, its a simple matter of just waiting.

I saw that Luxembourg have 11 points in this qualifying campaign. Very impressive given their population of just 640,000 and I don’t think they’ve ever had a professional footballer that anyone on this forum could name. It’s also just 1 point less than Ireland have managed in the past 2 campaigns combined, whose population dwarfs theirs. Well done Luxembourg.

Luxembourg have been performing admirably but to say Ireland’s population “dwarfs theirs” is a bit of an exaggeration

It's almost 10 times bigger?

A belated congratulations to Argentina, winning their 3rd World Cup in 2022, to go with their 15 Copa Americas, making it a whopping 18 international footballing titles with a population of only 40 million people.

Great lads for a peno, it has to be said.
