wales v england

i think the football league are having the piss taken out of them anyway with this game being on a sat at 3pm and to make it worse its only on sky so me like many others wont be watching....id much rather be at gp and i bet many other fans feel the same.i dont actually care how 'we' do v wales
 

wales v england

If you don't care how we do then why are you bothered that it is on a channel you don't have and won't be able to watch it?

Fair enough that's your view but I think it makes sense. I'm a Brentford fan and an England fan so I want to be able to watch both games so having them on at different times and days makes sense. Away qualifiers have been on Sky/Setanta for years so it is nothing new.

i was going to watch it but clearly cannot so feel we have been inconvenienced for nothing and yes I could not give a rats arse about england and would happily not qualify for the euros in exchange for winning the jpt

I think you'll find a fair few Bees fans will be at the Wales v England game Hanworth. To some extent I do agree Hanworth - I'd like to see international games played on a Wednesday or Friday night or Sunday. However, with this one scheduled for 3pm on the Saturday I'm delighted the Bees game was switched to the Friday.

What IS wrong is that non-league football goes ahead with 3pm kick offs and this causes a dilemma to spectators at this level. It is grossly unfair that football fans have to choose between watching the national team or theirlocal club. The FA continue to show a complete disregard to grass roots football people.

I guess it's about being realistic. 3pm Saturday is obviously the prime spot for football, so it's inevitable that a international match is going to take precedence over non-league. Aside from arguments about the current England team or sky killing football, isn't it right that other the premiership/football league/non-league play around the national team for a few weekends a year?

There is also a big march, demo against the public service cuts in London on Saturday. 100K+ exepcted so no doubt police leave cancelled. I'll be there !!

''a couple of shock call ups''...............you're not joking!

What a weak looking squad. I'm not a big follower of the Premiershite but who is Kyle Walker?

Maybe Capello looks at the players in my list below with differant eyes but does anyone think they are international quality, would they get in the Italian or Spanish squads?
I think it shows just how far away from the likes of Spain and Germany we really are.
But surely we can't loose to Wales....can we?

Foster
Green
Baines
Dawson
Jagielka
Johnson
Lescott
Downing
Young
Bent

Some very good players in that list imo. They night not get in the World Champions squad but a few would certainly get in Italy's.

Having been born in Wales I certainly hope so. However, being realistic Wales really don't have a chance. England would have to have a massive off day and Wales would have to play well above their natural ability. But as they say football is a funny old game.

Kyle Walker is a Spurs youngster who has been loaned to Aston Villa, do well for them too.

We have to beat the Welsh, hopefully Bale does not show!!!

Thought Micah Richards would be ahead of Walker.

Anyone know if there's going to be any highlights on terrestrial tv? Nothing listed at the moment..........

Dreadful game neither side created many chances still can't complain about the result. Bees and England win can't ask for anything more:sorted:

England didn't have to come out of 3rd gear - a professonal performance against a very woeful Welsh side !

Midfield looked good - please no more Barry in the side .. !

Enfield Town KO was 1pm today.

Well that was easy. Boring game but you can only beat what is in front of you. Men against boys.

Fair few early kick offs in the Zamaretto, Ryman and Evo-Stik. I like early kick offs there. Can we have more of those please. Makes my life a fair bit easier.
