He plays for Newcastle. The same way a player can be 82 on Fifa then sign for us and become a 74 and slower, weaker and less accurate <laugh>.

Scotland scored a blinder and played really well to take the 3 points but watch us utterly **** it up versus Gibraltar <disgrace>

More people watched the BBC quiz show Pointless than tuned in to England's Euro 2016 qualifier on ITV against Slovenia on Saturday <laugh>

And the EURO 2016 qualifiers are back this weekend!

Wales take on Belgium tonight and victory for the Welsh would make them top the table.

Ireland face Scotland on Saturday. Scotland need the win to keep pace with Poland and Germany but an Irish win would keep Ireland in contention for a possible play off place.

Northern Ireland play Romania and a victory for the home nation will take them top.

England face Slovenia on Sunday evening and a victory for England would make early qualification nigh on certain.

Best of luck to all the home nations... apart from Ireland ;)

I couldn't really care about international football until tournament time comes around but it would be pretty good if all the home nations managed to qualify. Has that ever happened before at a Euros or World Cup?

Scotland's national sport is disappointment <laugh>

<laugh> they've actually not been too bad this qualifying, it's just that Germany and Poland are way too strong for them, and I can't see them getting through the playoffs (that'll be from group A IMO - one of Iceland, Czech Republic or Netherlands)
I dunno

We've been close in the past but the national manager jumped ship half way through the campaign.

With Strachan in charge playing some emerging young players we seem to have a lot more belief about getting into a play off at least.

If we get there, we can at least compete.

Like how the Ivory Coast are 'competing' in the women's world cup?

I'd love to see all the home nations in all qualify for a change!
