2018 FIFA World Cup qualification (UEFA)

it's alarmingly like watching Wolves under Big Mick

At least we'll be rid of Strachan and his inexplicable favourites like Barry Bannan, Chris Martin, Anya, this useless cunt Phillips. Darren Fletcher, go and pick up your pension ffs.

Mo Salah making sure Egypt qualifies for the first time in 28 years. Odd stat seeing they won the African Nations thrice in a row ('06, '08, '10) but didn't qualify for the WC those years.

Shelvey >>>> All of England's current midfielders

That was the most Scotlandy most Strachany thing I have ever watched. It's so predictable.

Indeed, they're unlikely to get an easier qualification group next time out, Sloveniaka and as top seeds a boring crappy England team full of comically overrated Spurs players, managed by Gareth Southgate into the bargain.

Any chance that this isn't total dogshit

Watching anyway of course. Good anthem

Brady's existential despair over the omission of Hoolahan is quite something

Not good so far!

We can't string three passes together

This is fine

Disciplined stuff. Possession isnt the aim

McClean a cheap thug as always

Christie could do a job under poch imo

yaaaaaaas

\m/

Ramsey is so shit

5 mins!

Fuck off Wales a goals no good to ye

McClean still a stupid thug

Stupid stupid thug.

George if you don't shut the fuck up

blow the fucking whistle!

I don't believe it.

Call trap. Tell him that's what negative but organised football looks like

That should be red from meyler

Trap out

fucking hell my heart

thank you Tom Lawrence

Ya dancer. Also Iceland, gud job ladssons

pleased for Ireland, Wales were as bad as I've seen them for years. Ramsey at Kane v Iceland levels of hubristic ineptitude

The volte face from dunphy and Brady after a win is fucking shameless. Tarts.

keepers who think punting it long is beneath them are a blight in general

pretty shameful stuff from Wales

only Welsh player that looked remotely up for it was the 17-year-old

Dunphy said we would win it at half-time tbf

Magine

Just magine

Having to try to explain tactics to Jeff Hendrick

Good lad but

lol I was charmed

some exhibition from duffy

God Wales were a lot shittier than I expected

COYBIG

How do these play-offs work? Can we get a Rep Ireland-Northern Ireland show down?

apparently yes, unseeded v seeded

yeah

there are four seeded teams and four unseeded

Nordies will be seeded

neither of these teams belong at the wc

Thankig youse.

So that's Bale crossed out for the WC. Wonder who's next: Ronaldo, Messi, both?

Saw a Dutch pundit saying yesterday it's not all doom and gloom for Holland because in Qatar there will be even more countries in the WC? Madness. For him to find a dumb silver lining, and for so many nations participating tbh

hmmm, apparently not

Shame.

Great stuff, the Irish + MON, having the Welsh go through would have been too much to bear. LOLz @ deems hate figure and Up the 'RA numpty McClean doing the business.

Thing is he's not at all half bad when he's not a liability but he's two types of liability, the violent will get sent off type as evidenced twice every match and the brutish oaf we saw thwacking the ball for the final twenty minutes of the game before last.

But not ineffective in a green shirt. I just really dislike him because he tries to hurt people.

I like McLean. Last night I was saying he's like the football equivalent of getting riled up watching In The Name Of The Father.

australia play off kicks off in 5mins
good luck syria!

0-1 Syria!
