  1. The world at war. Has there been a better series about ww2. I'm watching at all again.
  2. Nope. I'm enjoying watching the show. Crack on sir 🍿 🍿 🍿
  3. Scotty2Hotty is verging on chripper territory
  4. I wish we could wrap him in cotton wool till the euros
  5. I'm regretting getting involved in this thread. It's a fucking car crash
  6. That guy seems to be unhinged or perhaps that's a spoof account
  7. so in reality Clarke has three potential teenagers he could've called, none of which are particularly deserving of a call up more than their competition except they are younger. Mainoo - a revelation for Man Utd lately. any nation would call him up Yamal - a once in a lifetime 16 year old with 29 appearances for the Barca first team since April 2023 Endrick - again e is a regular for Palmeiras, the Brazilian champions. The only teenage sensation we have come close to is Doak who hasn't done what any of the above did. Gilmour was started at Wembley by Clarke at the age of 18 so there is evidence that Clarke will give debuts to speciall talents, patterson also started age 19. until looking into the above I thought Clarke was very stubborn and the whole Doak, Doig and Conway argument only arises when we perform poorly because everyone on here thinks they know the answer
  8. I am not in denial, not sure why you think anyone who disagrees with you is in denial. Clarke will be telling the players different things to what he tells the media and he will be backed by the captain and vice captain we did go 451 and it worked to a certain extent, Patterson was in acres of space at least 5 times down the right wing. He did get any crosses into dangerous areas, he was clearly struggling last night. on another night he wouldve whipped is some great crosses. Tierney also found a lot of space down the left with armstrong Fraser could make a difference, there several balls through to Patterson and two to Shankland which in my opinion were tailor made for Fraser. The question around him is whether Clarke believes Fraser will upset the team ethic within the squad
  9. I'm convinced shankland will start. I haven't been on board with the screams for him to start because I felt he was just a finisher and that type of player isn't suited to the way Clarke plays however he is winning me over with these last two performances. He needs a goal against but he didn't slightly better than dykes and adams
  10. I don't think anyone has a problem with them being Northern Irish and rangers fans, there are plenty of other teams fans in northern Ireland. I'm guessin the problem is with scottish rangers fans being in there. I'm sure you are right, they looked to having a great time acting like plastic English fans, booing celtic players despite there likely being celtic fans from northern Ireland in their end.
  11. Of course malcolm witnessed a hate crime 😆 I can imagine the Billy brit on the phone the cops 24/7 reporting hate crimes despite constantly moaning about the hate crime bill
  12. Wales performed well because they had a global superstar in their ranks who scored for fun and they had more solid defenders, it wasn't down to just blooding teenagers. I'd also argue it was down to them having a lack of depth. Which teenagers have England Spain and Brazil played recently? At the moment we have 3 names often mentioned on here. Doig - he will only sit on the bench like Taylor. Is it better for him to continue developing with the U21s or sit warming the bench? Doak - currently injured and since being back hasn't been in the Liverpool squad. Who do we drop for him? Conway - there's an argument for him to be called up as he plays at the same level as dykes and adams but he is not much more prolific. I guess a a goalie could be left out for any of the above. We don't need 4 GKs. Who else is there?
  13. For those going on about Wales and Northern Ireland playing teenagers. Neither of those nations are going to the Euros. Wales may have been unlucky but they ain't going. Looking back on last night, Northern Ireland are fucking pish. They played out of their skin in a friendly but they did absolutely nothing, scotland beat themselves. I reckon if we played them again on Saturday we'd batter them or if it was a qualifier we'd batter them.
  14. When they weren't giving it last night at the proms they were like the crowd at the Ally pally during the world darts championships.
  15. I'm not sure why you refer to top nations. Nobody argue that we are and IMO we never have been top Nation No nation at our level would sack their manager after qualifying the way we did.
