Thought I'd start a football blog, we might keep this going until 2010.....England doing well....did not see the match or even the goals....I'd like Michael owen back in the squad though....and I think Peter Crouch would make a very good substitute...remember against Argentina in Geneva a few years ago....with Michael Owen and some very good movements on and off the ball...they caused havoc.....did see Scotland's missed chance....that could be very costly losing those 2 points !.

Trig.I am a football puristif Scotland beat England and they deserved their win I would say soI would drink with the ScotsI have family members that are ScottishI think you will find most of the problems are the other way round.nuff said!!!!

i have some family that are english...bless them....it is not their fault

You have just proven my point Trig.

What a terrible thing to have to live with Treb.

My deepest sympathies.

tabby glad i could be of service.

dil...that did actually make me laugh out loud :-)

Made me wanna cry.

:-)

Dil/Trig.I like the WelshScottishIrish.North/South/East/West.why shouldnt I like my fellow British friends?

Difference is tabby ... we are likable :-)

Did you miss IMHO?

No ... its a fact.

So that makes you likeable.does your wife know that theory?

Celtic out !, they really are hopeless.....only Rangers left in the uefa cup, and they will need to play a lot better to reach the latter stages.....terrible lack of good footballers in Scotland at the moment.....need to be taught better passing and improvisation when they are young not the kick and push which you see all the time !, English clubs fairing a little better, might be annother year with one of the big four in the final !, I doubt if we will have an all English final again.....need a bit of luck to go with the draws as well as very good play !.

Its all park football up there RF.Trig likes a good day outplenty of boozesinging Rod/Andy Stewart songsplenty of funny momentsfinished off with a good old-fashioned punch-up.bingo!

My mistake, went through all the groups in the uefa cup stages and I can't see Glasgow Rangers anywhere....knocked out presumably, missed that.....very bad year for Scotland !, must say that they were very unlucky not to have made the European finals last summer !.

tabby....away and get yer missus to work some overtime behind the tills.

requiredfield...scottish football in the doldrums at the moment...the national under 21 team is a disgrace also so the future is not looking bright

ps rangers got beaten in a qualifier fr the champions league and that knocked them out of europe totally

Good results all round, Man city ,Spurs and Villa will all go through but I have my doubts about Pompey....they have to beat Wolfsburg, tricky !.

Well congratulations to Ronaldo.....to win a France Football "ballon d'or" takes some doing, last person from these shores to win was Michael Owen (I think in 2001), let's hope the reds can win the World Club Championship (new format) in a few weeks time !. Beside the soccer the England Rugby Union team in my opinion have a difficult task with Scotland and Argentina !, "boy" they will have to improve....luckily this is 3 years away : 2011 !. Why have the draws 3 years before the games are going to be played ? crazy !, in football the draws are made 6 months or so before : that gives plenty of time to prepare !.

Portsmouth blew it !, as I thought they would, really can't see them getting back into Europe next season, I don't like singling out players, but what do people see in Defoe ?, out of 10 goal chances : he might score once !.

Apart from being a great Hollywood actor ?, (not the same person possibly) ?!.
