Football Banter

Just to point out to you English, in 1974 and 1978 England did not qualify for the World Cup whilst Scotland did, another factor in the reasons why Scotland are finding it notoriously difficult to qualify for major tournaments now is the fact of the matter is we allways get put in absolutely bastard groups unlike England who allways seem to be placed in relatively easy groups compared to ours. We've had teams such as Italy and France to overcome so the odds have allways been heavily stacked against us and England would struggle too if they were in the same predicament as what Scotland allways seem to find themselves in all the time.

Silly season has started... with all the players and football clubs on the summer tranfer merry go round.

Elmander is suggesting that it's time that he move on. Stuart Downing won't commit to Villa and is being mentioned with Arsenal. (2nd rate player and won't be missed at AV)

And Crouch is wanted by Sunderland............. and there will be more to follow.

This is called seedings, something you gain when your a good team & before you start Italy & France are shit aswell but you still implemented these teams as better than Scotland.

I can't believe the Premier League... Sorry football season hasn't even been finished a week yet the England Scotland rivalry is kicking in already & I don't even know if you Scots are in the U21 Euros, you've gotta love football lads you wouldn't get it in any other sport.

just like senor torres ? as soon as one of the big boys comes a knocking he'll be off mate

how will reina feel when he's dropped from the spanish squad when de gae signs for UTD ? he's likely to be dropped isnt he because the keepers who play for the big teams automatically get called up and with only 3 places available.................well you do the math
