chonabot Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 I was thinking it might be a good time to have a bi-annual football international competition. Now the gap between the home nations is ever closing it might be something else to watch in the lose season, even let Rep of Ireland come and play if they wanted? Any thoughts ?

mrbojangles Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Come off it Chon. England are way too busy playing in big European and World Cup matches to be able to do this sort of mini cup. I suppose we could send the Rochdale side along instead, to give them a game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeungKen Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 It will probably be obligatory soon if the Home Nations don't come up to scratch.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrtoad Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 I think we could have something along the same lines as the old Rugby Five Nations, but split into Two Divisions with no France. Premier League: England Scotland Northern Ireland Jersey Cornwall 2nd Division Isle Of Man Isle of Sheppey Isles of Scilly Guernsey Wales I think that would be fairly even.

redrus Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Bring it on, I think at least bring back the Auld Enemy games v the Scots. I think it would go a long way to bringing some much needed passion and urgency (which the Scots display admirably) into the England side....! They've got the pride you can see that but, what's pride without passion especially on a Football pitch....? redrus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
