well thats typical! If England do get that slight chance of qualification on Wednesday, they now have to score 3 goals against Croatia without Rooney and Owen! (previding Russia draw or lose and Croatia lose to 2 shite teams)

I know we can say it after the events, BUT, what was the point of this game?

Israel 2 - 1 Russia
A point and we're through. I think I've just cum.

How do you work that one out? You're talking about winning the group. Macedonia are beating Croatia 2-0 at the moment, so if we beat them 3-0 on Wednesday we will top the group!

thats very lucky, russia really should have won
a) israel was running their second team (sort of) and
b) israel's coach is russian (i think) and wanted russia to qualify.
would be so class if england didnt qualify

Their coach is Israeli. Why would it be class if England didn't qualify? More people around the world are going to want to tune in in summer and watch England play than Russia and Croatia put together... or is it that colonial chip on your shoulder talking :p

can see the shares of pubs and offies rising as we speak! I'm welsh and would hate england to win the whole championship but as a football fan would love to see them in the finals, as I just love the buzz! (in other words all the games will be on ITV1 and BBC1 and not ITV4 and BBC3)

always good to see some high profile team get screwed over by the littleun's. As for that colonial chip on my shoulder, why should i care about some soccer team after last summer's glorious ashes series, fixing the ****-up best described as a miracle that god knows how occured and resulted in England winning the ashes

I'm also Welsh but I'd love to see any British team win. It's all better than France, eh?

Ridiculous idea having a friendly so close to such a potentially important game. I'm much happier now we're back in the running but if we don't qualify and it was Mclaren's idea to play Austria then he should definitely go for ballsing up our chances!

Because the England manager is really a semi-decent club manager and not an international manager. He really is Sven in disguise.

He is worse than Sven. At least Sven is a decent club manager
