England's Euro 2008 qualification hopes...

[2Pax]

Hanging by a thread. Apart from Rooney's goal it was a shocking performance, second half was dire. Russia are two points behind with a game in hand, not looking good. Anyone think we can pull it off?

 

[stefanwzyga]

England will still make it.


They need to bin SM though, he's a dud! He done nothing to get the job in the first place.

Depends if you win against Croatia in London.

I bet on a draw.

But then again, Russia has to play Israel and Andorra.

Now the standings are like this

Cro 26
Eng 23
Rus 21

To beat Croatia, you have to win by more than 2-0. Say you do.

Eng 26
Cro 26 (Game behind)
Rus 21 (with two games behind)

Croatia will play Macedonia away. They will win, and my guess is that Macedonia will give that game to Croatia.

Cro 27
Eng 26
Rus 21 (with Andorra and Israel to play away)


Statisticaly, your faith is in Israel's hands. Israel will beat Russia at home, well because England has to go through and Israel's FA is highly connected with the UEFA.

So Croatia with 27 and England with 26 points.

^Depends if Russia beat Isreal and Andorra away from home..and if Macedonia get a result at home to Croatia.

I didnt see the match, heard it wasnt great.

Hopefully Scotland will win tonight and qualify.

A team like England should be qualifying easily. Look at the players they have to chose from. If Russia win their last 2 games then they are through regardless of how England do. Israel could beat Russia though.

 

[hizzle?]

Also, I hope Scotland wins today!

Portugal won in the last minute 2-1 away to Borats national side...They so badly need a striker, they just produce wingers.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Fuck, Scotland are 1-0 down with half an hour left.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

2-0...

 

[hizzle?]

Fuck!

Macedonia will not beat us. We qualify with even a draw, and I don't expect England to beat us either. In Bilic we trust.


Scotland losing 2 - 0

 

[Bachaveli]

Georgia beat Scotland 2 - 0 lol

Good result. This shakes things up in group B nevertheless.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Ireland managed a 1-1 draw at home to Cyprus courtesy of a injury time equaliser from Steve Finnan. i have never seen anything as bad, or wait i have, this time last year when they beat us 5-2. Cyprus should have won by about 3-1. Ireland are a disgrace. They cant play football at all and the manager plays half the team out of position. Im really embarrassed by them.

 

[hizzle?]

^^^I know how you feel mate.

Bosnia-H 1-3 Hungary
Bosnia-H 0-1 Moldova
Moldova 2-2 Bosnia-H.
Hungary 1-0 Bosnia

Thats 11 points lost to AWFUL teams!!!

We would've had 24 points!!!! First or 2nd in our group.

 

[Flipmo]

We're first.

 

[hizzle?]

Go eat shit you mule.

 

[dillaxx]

ah i love the footy.. im like.. an hour away from Georgia..

 

[Bachaveli]

Weak..

 

[stefanwzyga]

Good result. This shakes things up in group B nevertheless.

I dont really think it does. Just means we have to beat Italy instead of a draw. It was always gonna be very difficult for us anywayz.



My calculations were wrong. I belive England are going out.

 

[Bobby Sands]

It is possible that no team from Ireland and the UK will qualify.
