@hankjam You might have a few postponed matches this week when the wintery weather hits. Stay safe up there mate.
Cheers for this JB.
Car going in for service on Tuesday, inside heater not working, hoping it is not too frosty in the morning...
It will be!

Going to be Interesting for England this afternoon. If they win they will get promoted to Group B1. Greece are on the same 12 points and they play Finland also at 5pm. England need to win for sure. Should be a good game. It's on ITV 1.
Scotland need all sorts of things to happen.
First they need to beat Poland, after throwing away the home game...
We will see

Beating Croatia was a bit of a bonus, finally put a true winger on the park and hey Presto!

Happy for home countries teams to win.

Scrappy first half. Need better in the 2nd half. Greece and Finland drawing. The last thing we need is for a play off.

5-0. What a way to end Lee Carsley's Rein. Thomas Tucel takes over for the next International in March when we start the Qualifying for the 2026 World Cup and when they next compete in the Nations League it will be with the likes of Germany. Happy days. Back to our good old League footy and weather permitting our lads take on Charlton at Home on Saturday.

God Save the King booed and ‘Lizzie’s in a box’ sung ahead of England vs Republic of Ireland​


Absolulty disgraceful is all I can add to this news story. Both sets of fans have no shame.

Poland 1 2 Scotland

93rd minute two ex Dundee United combine to get an unbelievable result. In all there were 5 ex Dundee United players in the squad. 2 play for Vancouver White Caps!
1.5 million watched in YouTube and none of the regular broadcasters think there's anyone in Scotland who wants to watch the national team.

Oddly we get to see all England's games on ITV* and C4.


* how does Sam Matterface have a job commentating anywhere let along on ITV... :banghead:

The Scottish FA, should take the blame for this.
And of course it's about money.
Which pay for view channel on the games on, other than YouTube?

Should have got something from the home game, lost 1-0 so hoping for better and fingers crossed.

I hope all our teams are on the up after the break.

A few postponed matches today. Touch wood ours is still on. It's wild and heavy rain out there. If you are going to a game stay safe out there.

We won 2-1. All the other results went in our favour so we jump to 5th place. Just look at that table how close it is. Next game Away to Leyton Orient on Tuesday night.

Well, we were awful, not a threat at all, fans not happy and defo in a battle at the bottom.
They scored late on. We would still be playing to next week, and still not score.
I wouldn't mind if Cheltenham were any good, they are poor, and we were worse.

Home to the wombles Tuesday. Let's see if anything improves, I doubt it.
