The Euro 2016 qualifiers thread

[SALTIRE]

Think this will end up a draw or a narrow Ireland win. Can't see us winning it today though stranger things have happened.

 

[Stevencc]

Rab will disinherit you!

I'll buy him a fish supper to smooth things over.

 

[SALTIRE]

These ref's are definitely favouring the Irish so far. Plenty of suspect corners here.

Dinnae forget the Irn Bru!

 

[SALTIRE]

Got to suffer that traitorous prick on commentary also!

 

[Stevencc]

Walters!!!

 

[SALTIRE]

Always poor to concede from a set piece. Maybe though it'll spring us into life.

 

[SALTIRE]

Thought for a sec Roy Keane was going to come on there!

 

[SALTIRE]

Both sides have been poor here. Hopefully we can raise our game in the second half and get back in this.

Portugal 1-0 down in Armenia. Why are they so shit at qualifiers?

They're not a very good team full stop really, not a patch on the early 2000s.

 

[GodsGift]

Goal music for the away side?

 

[SALTIRE]

Gordon Bennett I go for a shower and miss the equaliser!

 

[Stevencc]

Huge slice of luck for Scotland there, they probably deserved it after Ireland's offside goal though.

 

[You Orns]

That was the weirdest away goal celebration I've seen, why play goal music.

Such a chronic lack of basic technical ability in this match, it's painful to see. Just a load of raggedy arse Championship level players charging around the field fouling each other.

Indeed I was a
Watching Chile v Ecuador the other night and both were playing great stuff. To then see this is pitiful.

What was Armenia thinking letting Ronaldo steal in for that second. His third was a cracker tbf.

Poland have scored too stretching their lead in the group.

To think I once had to debate with a few on TFF that Wales are a million miles better than both Scotland & Ireland.

 

[SALTIRE]

Will take that.

 

[GodsGift]

Lewandwoski has just scored an injury hat-trick!

 

[rudebwoyben]

Lewandowski has scored a hat-trick in the space of 90 seconds!

Well you aren't.

You're also two injured players away from being much worse than both.

Well Williams & Allen would stroll into the majority of top European nations squads so that's a silly statement to make.

Anyways you're missing the point (very English mistake to make) We're not the UK's best footballing nation because we have an abundance of better players. We're the best because we have an ethic & identity that embodies streamlined efficiency, insatiable dedication to achieve & pure unadulterated swag to play the best nations off the park.

this is all very true but the simple fact of the matter is that that Wales squad struggles to score goals in the Championship if you take Bale out of the equation.

Whereas in actual real life factual events England can't score against Ireland, Costa Rica & Honduras.

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

Odd to be poking fun at the English when so many of your players are English.

if you think you're talking to some rabid st george flag-wearing patriot you've got the wrong bloke. i wouldn't be at all upset to see some of the so-called 'lesser' home nations get their shot at a major tournament instead of our shower.

 

[SALTIRE]

Schweinsteiger misses a penalty against Gibraltar who are still drawing with Germany after 25 mins. Go on Gibraltar! !!!

 

[SALTIRE]

Spoke too soon unfortunately, Schurrle scores. Always scores in big games.

 

[Stevencc]

Third hat trick in three games for club and country for Ronaldo.
