A2 and to a slightly lesser extent A4 would have seen us take some serious horsings. We've definitely landed slightly lucky with who we've drawn. There's definitely a chance we could finish ahead of Poland

Especially if Lewandowski retires after the Euros, as rumoured.Β  Talking of potential retirees, surely Modric will go as well, then you have to wonder if Croatia aren't beatable.Β 

Not going to be easy this, it never was going to be, but we can be cautiously optimistic.Β Β 

Either way it'll be an interesting experience following a newly-promoted top division side.Β  Can't imagine we'll ever experience that with the Dons.

What is the story with the format it looks complicated on wiki

Bottom team gets relegated, second bottom goes into a relegation play off. Top two go into a knockout to win the whole thing.

Great draw, we're going through to the knockouts.

In the lower leagues (lol) the top team gets promoted and the second placed team goes into a playoff (with the team finishing second bottom of the higher league). Southgate doesn't fancy a playoff. And given that one of France, Italy and Belgium will be in that playoff, it's not hard to see why.

I was hoping that we got Poland. Fuck knows how they are still in Nationalism League A.

They were gash in the Euro qualifiers, Moldova beat them. Watched that match, Poland were comical clown shoes.

Croatia aren't the machine team they once were, not a scary side to me. Love them as a nation, great players, though.

Portugal were phenomenal in the Euro qualifiers. How they perform in German will dictate how tight to clench my airse.

Aim for 8 points. Aim not to lose a match. In all seriousness, parking buses, bolting doors, hacking the VAR with coat-hangers might be the order of the day for many teams and just go into the World Cup qualifiers with a guarantee of a place in the playoffs should we finish in second place. But regardless of all that, the World Cup qualifiers will be all-time squeaky airse time. Away games to Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Belarus, North Korea, Faroe, Iceland, Serbia, Albania, Romania, Moldova, all them gyppo counties will be Dirty Dozen missions of steroids, crack and meth.

Every match save ones with Gibraltar, San Marino... fuck even then... someone will shit the bed. Italy have done so twice, ffs and it was less-shittable back then, yet still diddeth Italy shitteth.

We canna shit it. Need to storm Turtle Island three summers fae knoo. Taylor Swift will be President by then, Yankland will have no evil white people by then. It will be great. Canna David Ginola that shit like in 1994. Why was he playing right-midfield for us against Bulgaria anyway that night? One of the mysteries of life.
