just bought the new england shirt......very,very nice..even at £45,which is about the same that i paid for my england RL jersey...so i can't grumble




but it ain't a football shirt it's a high end 'fashion' polo shirt...without a doubt

I'm surprised by the stick it's got. I'd never buy an England football shirt but I do quite like it.

And what managerial experience does Hughton have? ? ?

Calderwood didnt exactly do brilliantly at Nottingham Forest either.

Would rather have someone there who knows and loves the club if we were to appoint someone with little experience.

Sod all, but to be fair he stepped in because the incumbent manager has a serious heart condition.

. ok . you try and go the south american games . see how you can on we won tonight 2 nil baby . world cup glory here we come

It's changed now anyway. The 5th placed team in the South American qualifying table now plays the 4th placed team in the North American/Central America/Caribbean table.

New Zealand have won the Oceania group and will play the 5th place team from Asia.


Anyhow the point is Australia is not in Asia so should not be playing in the Asian qualifying group full stop. They can't just move continents because playing a South American team every time was to difficult!!!

Do Israel still play in the European qualifiers?

Just as Israel is in Asia, yet they compete in the European qualifiers.
