JLennon SG dodgy opponents. 3 points for England will be satisfying to me regardless of performance. If McClaren is gutsy enough, he should instruct the team to take the game to Macedonia instead of sitting back to hit them on a break.
Manager433 SG Englang giving handicap of 1.75 balls. Looks like they’ll only win the match by a odd goal.
JLennon SG Not really. England happened to be seeded and the rest of the unseeded teams happened to be minnows. They will face Croatia and Russia later I think and these guys aren't minnows. When qualifying for WC'98, England was not seeded and was placed in the same qualifying group as Italy. Against the odds, Glenn Hoddle steered the team to top the group.
zocoss SG England's group is so easy i don't belief it. No Sweden, no Denmark, no Turkey... McClaren have it easy. Macedonia Andorra Croatia Israel Russia Estonia With such teams, how to not qualify also i dunno?
The man who was death SG Russia is probably better than turkey now, turkey is on the down while russia with guus hiddink will be looking up. Israel is tough too....croatia probably toughest in the grp for england
zocoss SG Tought as they may be amongst themselves but they are definately not a match for a rank top 5 in the world side. If England have problems with such opponents then they might as well forget about winning Euro 08.
stellazio SG 3am start, now 0-0 at HT. but scv never show.. anyway france italy match quite exciting..
JLennon SG Caught the first half of the game. Didn’t seem like an easy one cos the Macedonians were quite organised at the back and were taking the game to England. This is the team which drew twice against Holland in the qualifiers for WC.
