Other European Qualifiers

I was very confused when I turned on Virgin Media and saw Damien Delaney talking about the first-half. I assumed it was some kind of repeat. It won’t be over until well after 11 at this rate.

Scotland on a great run of form. Be great to see how they fuck this up. Clark will probably take over at Wrexham.

Robertson and McTominay outstanding.

Gerry Armstrong is a bit of a Quisling; incredibly biased towards Scotland and against Georgia.

Armstrong is an ape but Scotland have been excellent.

Other than Austria going well and beating Sweden, it’s been a very bad round of fixtures for Ireland in terms of a Nations League place.

Poland losing to Moldova and Bosnia losing to Luxembourg are complete disaster of results. Because we can’t rely on the Welsh, they’re shit.

As it stands (admittedly at a very early stage with plenty of games in hand for certain teams), we’re two teams away from a play-off place with Slovenia ahead of us.

Presumably Spain will get in the top 2 of Scotland’s group and push Georgia out, they’ve only played two games yet. Same with Croatia in Wales group to push Armenia out. You’d hope that if we don’t make the top 2 that at least the Dutch will and push Greece out.

And then if either Italy or Poland make the top 2, we’d then squeeze in as the last play-off place but in a slightly tougher route.

Scotland already 1-0 up in Cyprus. A win here and they’ve 15 points from 5 games and in such a good qualification position that only Scotland could throw it away

And it’s 2-0. 11 mins in and both sides already drenched in sweat.

Jesus Christ how will Scotland manage to balls this up? They are absolutely flying

Luxembourg lining another memorable scalp. This time against Iceland. 1-0 up with 20 to go.

Iceland ain’t what they used to be

2-0 now. Stephen Kenny will be purring that we won in Luxembourg.

An 88th minute equaliser for Turkey denies a famous Armenian win in the genocide derby. 1-1 the result.

Gives Wales a squeak of getting back into the qualification mix.

We need the Welsh to qualify to get into the Europa League playoffs I think

It would help a lot. I expect we’ll either get in by one place or miss out by one place.

You’d really have to wonder how Ten Fags can’t get a tune out of Mctominay

Wales have both Croatia and Turkey at home still to play. There’s an outside chance they can still do this but they’d probably need wins in both

The two Harry’s starting for England.

We really need Israel to beat Romania tonight, and Poland to beat Albania tomorrow.
