RUL Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Fk Hampden, what a game that would be and some trip for those that like to travel. Bit odd that the FA are considering a game in 2013...in 2011? Link to comment

RUL Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 The article says the FA are considering an England V Scotland game in 2013.....but here's Brazil talking about playing Scotland in 2011, end of March, don't understand why England and Scotland can't get a game together before 2013?

vanderark14 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 "The behaviour of Scottish supporters would be of particular interest, with the FA keen to stage an England v Scotland friendly at Wembley in 2013" WOW just WOW on another note,it will be interesting to find out the price of tickets for this game Link to comment
Monkey Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 I can't agree at all this is all about cash and as usual the fans of the team playing mean the square root of f**k all.The SFA again are chasing the cash rather than thinking long term. Now much as the FIFA rankings are a pile of pish they are used to seed teams for the big tournaments. So why are we playing games against opposition that we have little chance of winning whilst we slip further and further down the list?Against Argentina Hampden was only about 60% full so it's not as if these ties are pulling in the fans. Why not have games against the teams above us in the rankings that we might have a decent chance against?Play these games in Aberdeen or Edinburgh and you'll get a fair crowd and boost chances of qualifying for tournaments in the long term and then reap the rewards then.I'd fancy our chances against the likes of; Tunisia, Iran, Austria, Burkino Faso, Honduras or a rematch with Costa Rico, all teams above us in the rankings. These games if played at the weekend would have a good attendance as we would gave a decent shout of a win.In the past glamour friendlies attracted fans as where else would you see the world's best players. Nowadays with TV there is less of a draw to these ties and people would rather go and see a game where there is a chance of a win. Link to comment

tup Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Taxi for Maicon, again, in London, when Commons rips him a new arsehole. It's about time we got some high profile exposure like this. My only wish for our national team going forward is that we campaign for a new stadium to replace the jaded, dated and frankly rubbish Hampden, and we could have the ground and team we deserve again.

I love when Hampden is full but we do need a better stadium. We missed a trick when they revamped it on the cheap. Even the welsh have a better ground than us but thats maybe helped by the fact they share it for egg chasing. Link to comment

tup Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 feel a bit silly about my "moral stance" now since I'm booked up to go Not sure we'll get many more opportunities to see our team playing Brazil in a competitive match in our lifetimes so it's the right decision. Wish I could go, it will be a cracking day out. Link to comment
