Victimhood status where everyone else is to blame. Ahm no 'avin' it Beeky.

Really not looking forward to the match. Although 9/1 for my not so Bravehearts to get the win looks quite tempting, but so will England -1.

Plus sides of a hiding are that Strachan will go.

Switzerland have qualified for 9 England 14 and Scotland 8
Switzerland played the first 3 ,England didn't and Scotland didn't

Iceland have never qualified for the world cup

Bosnia have qualified once since their inception in 1992

Slovakia have qualified once since their inception in 1998

Albania have never qualified for the world cup

These are piss poor examples Lawnsy

Population of Switzerland last count 2013 -8.081 million
Population of Scotland last count 2011 -5.295 million or approx. 35% more in real money

Del del del. Those countries have grown and developed in the last couple of decades. They're punching above their weight, have limited profile, players played in leagues outside. I never hear them whingeing like the Scots and blaming everyone for their ills whilst trying to scape a consolation win to make out they got into gear slightly late. Pull the other one del.

Switzerland playing world cup football since 1934 hardly fledging
Slovakia originally part of a powerful nation steeped in football.
Bosnia originally part of Yugoslavia another powerful football nation
Iceland no world cups
Albania no world cups

As stated your examples are a shocker .Must be able to come up with better than that.

I was thinking to myself, I hope Scotland win. Then I remembered it would mean Alan Brazil would probably be happy and I don't want that.

I'm a bit like Steve, just can't get excited about England.

Have to say though if England manage to lose to a nation of overweight glue sniffers it will be a solemn day.

Scotchland have been told they'll be fined two points if they wear the Poppy this evening. They've asked if they can pay those points in instalments over the next twenty years.
