Population of England - 56 million
Population of Ireland - 5 million
FA revenue - £500 million
IFA revenue - £15 million

On what planet can people celebrate England football team being better than Ireland/Wales/Scotland/NI?

We don't. We couldn't care less how crap the other home nations are.

Poland should not be losing to Moldova.

Will never understand how anyone who hates the English so much can attach himself to an English football team.

I remember such high hope for him but I am glad he did just sit on the bench here then creep off to some meh in the Championship

Poland should not be losing to Moldova.

Just shows how UEFA is getting a lot more even when it comes to the lower-middle to upper-middle division nations

Moldova used to get destroyed in every game, but now they can get results like that on the right occasion

I think there might need to be change in attitude to results like this

Rather than it being seen as a bad result for Poland, we might need to start seeing it as a good result for Moldova and accept that the number of punching bag sides in the confederation are reducing

Oh, I can definitely understand that UEFA is getting a lot more even. That's partly why I didn’t include Luxembourg's "shock" result v Bosnia in Bosnia, as I'm self aware Luxembourg have a decent core of players coming through e.g. Mainz's player of the year represents them.

That said, while I respect the fact Moldova have a younger core than Poland, I just thought the Poles would hold onto their 2-0 HT lead with all the experience they have at their disposal. I guess that's where the real "shock" about the result sets in, the manner which it came about?

only a 4 match ban for mourinho, gets off lightly as usual

 

[gonetomorrow]

Oy Tyldesley! You're all right after all!

 

[Jamo Martinez]

I know his record isn’t great but supposedly the job he done at vallecano was brilliant with what he took over.

I’ve got nothing to back this up apart from reading twitter and they could be his agent.

Very promising manager.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

England battering some semi pros again I see… chapeau….

Who've beaten Italy and Germany in the past year.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Lahoz acting like an absolute madman in this France match

He is a madman.

So had we had gone down a few weeks back, we’d have either started the Championship season at Sheffield Wednesday (Southampton) on a Friday night, Coventry at home (Leicester) in a 12pm Sunday game or Cardiff at home (Leeds) on a Sunday afternoon
