The hype in on!
"England thrash Montenegro..."
"England... thumping victory over tame Montenegro..."
"England run riot on historic night at Wembley..."
I guess many have forgotten Iceland already.

Re: The hype in on!
Most of the England squad are young at International level. It's not fair to compare them from even the African World cup team we had they were at School. Look at the England skipper Harry Kane 26 Sterling 24 Rashford 22 Abraham 22. They can and will be a great team in the next few years times on there side.
Re: The hype in on!
Not at all an unfair assessment and a couple of Euro's and maybe, just maybe a WC over the next 8 or 10? Look at the precipitous slide of the all-powerful German national steamroller after Joachim Löw failed to invest in younger talent in a timely manner. They are hanging in at 16th in the FIFA rankings. Spain don't have that immense depth of talent on-the-day any more and despite serial hat-tricks, Ronaldo is not Portugal.vlad wrote: ↑November 15, 2019, 7:04 pmMost of the England squad are young at International level.

It's the overwrought media hype though. England were expected to steamroller Montenegro so it's like there may still have been nagging doubts leading up to the kick-off? The OTT reporting of the win must be akin to the incredible relief of the long-denied, masturbatory release of ejaculation, no?
Re: The hype in on!
No hype required for the perpetually good-natured but under-achieving Scottish team. After getting hammered last month by Russia at Hampden and thus losing the last vestige of automatic qualification, they took all three points away against Cyprus to bolster their playoff claim. They only need a draw at Hampden against the Kazakhs but here's hoping they get the win. Then I can experience the incredible relief of the long-denied, masturbatory release of ejaculation.

Re: The hype in on!
Another strange scoreline in the England Kosovo fixture along with many others (jocks winning).. at best a reasonable effort by England but leaking too many goals against lower level.footballing nations doesnt bowd well.for playing the bigg boys ..tamada wrote: ↑November 17, 2019, 12:01 pmNo hype required for the perpetually good-natured but under-achieving Scottish team.

Re: The hype in on!
Rumours surfacing that Giorgious Pistofosis head of the Cypriot FA is considering the sacking of the manager and half the team after their latest "shocking" defeat. this time to minnows Scotland. He stated on Cypriot TV that is was unforgivable and that the fans have the right to know that heads will roll. He went on to point out that many of the Scottish players even play their football in the Scottish Premier, a league he compared to the Cypriot 3rd Division

Re: The hype in on!
Good result tam, although the fact that the Hampden "crowd" was well below 20,000 speaks volumes, as does the fact that they were actually losing at half time, after already losing away to the Kazaks (the 121st best in the world) and were booed of at half time by those that could be bothered to turn up

We may be hopeless but were not all daft enough to go to Hampden in November!
I guess the half-time locker room pep talk turnaround isn't exclusive to the EPL either.

Re: The hype in on!
Good luck to Scotland in their playoff games ........ If they qualify for the finals it will at least guarantee England 3pts as they would be in the same finals group
Re: The hype in on!
So it's Israel at Hampden in late March then away to either Norway or Serbia.
Might still be needing the snowplows then.

Re: The hype in on!
Seems a bit pointless Steve Clarke's boys actually bothering to qualify as they already know they will be in England's group ... on the bright side, the train journey home wont take long

Coming from a Nation who have done nothing but cry and sack managers since 1966, perhaps you should start to look inwards a wee bit. Even I was a wee laddie the last time you won anything. Have fond memories of Jim Baxter and the rest of the boys hammering the World Champs at Wembly the next year 1967.
