Winston Biscuit No offense to the Welshies on here, but I really hope Scotland make it through.

There is a huge difference for us in playing Scotland or Wales. It would be great to experience an England Vs Scotland match in a WC.

Agree. Scotland always give us a better game, way more in it when we play them. Hard to get yourself up as a player when you play Wales, not really much competition for England.

Yeah true enough. Last time we played you in the same qualifying group in the Finals we won the group. Guess you are worried that will happen again.

I’d prefer Wales to qualify as they deserve a crack at the finals esp. after the “unfortunate” way they lost out for the finals in 78 and 86.

By the way what order do England play the other countries in their group ?

A poxy last minute winner and you still didn’t win the group. Once again I am thoroughly ashamed of you OMA. Please consider your position.
