🌎 🏆 World Cup Group Stage Draw 🌎 🏆


Recommended Posts

Tougher prospect than some are thinking IMO... plus 'Home Nations' factor and some diplomatic fireworks... although as it progressed still better than ending-up in H alongside Portugal + Uruguay + South Korea.

That'll be fun if we make it.

If we were to dump England out the World Cup and force another Iceland 2016 type period of national mourning as well as the delicious post mortem that comes with it, i'd probably just pack it in with football as nothing would ever come close to it again.

Was the best of the 4 options available by a distance.

Do we play England last if we qualify?  If so then win first two games and then a free hit...simples [emoji23]
Indeed.

Yanks first on 21/11 then Iran 25/11 and England last game of group 29/11

For whoever qualifies out of us, Ukraine or Wales.

As someone said before - 150 years and a day since the first international match.  That would be a great spectacle.  Surely reason enough to give us our place at the World Cup.

Would England play their reserves against Wales/Scotland in the last game if they're already through?

Southgate did last time against Belgium.

But id much, much rather just beat their first XI and knock the c***s out the tournament

Belgium, Morocco, and Croatia.  I'll take that.  I was really worried we would get Spain and Germany

Good luck to The Canucks. A long time since they qualified for a World Cup. Was it Mexico 86?

Yup, and back then we lost all 3 games (against France, USSR, and Hungary) without scoring a single goal.  I think this group gives us a good chance to at least compete.
