Re: a 6th team, I'd prefer a San Marino all day long. Still a competitive game and there could still be a few changes without it being too drastic. Much prefer that then playing Germany and losing.

Re: Tbilisi and Geneva, I'd do it again in a heartbeat LOL

Re: a 6th team, this is a negative outlook but I'd prefer to avoid the risk of having to win a competitive game v a San Marino, Andorra or Lichtenstein! Imagine if we didn't...Shocked A 5 team group or a Germany would be better imo.

Imagine we get thumped 5-0 by Germany! No good for us to be seeking games where we might suffer a demoralising loss

give me a 6th seed minnow all day long . When mick or mon was in charge I’d dread those games but we should easily dispose of a faroe/Gibraltar/ San Marino type team with our style of play now

Wouldn't be overly confident on Faroe, they can be tricky for teams.

But anyway, it's set in stone that it's either San Marino, Andorra or Liechtenstein if you were to get a pot 6 team.

Faroe are actually Pot 4, only one behind us and higher than the Nordies and Slovakia!

You could get Faroe, Gibraltar and San Marino in a group this time around

That would seem easy hut actually would prob work against us as we’d hardly get 6 points against all 3 and no doubt our nearest rivals would

There was one draw made on a Sunday morning a number of years ago (might well have been Euro 2020 qualifiers) - fixtures were announced that evening. If it doesn't happen this time around, then it should be on the Monday. 
The nation holds it's breath...YES, WE'RE THERE!!!

Fixtures for WC were same day but no crowds with COVID so not sure if that made it easier .

I know somebody said 24hours but did I imagine the fixtures came out later in the afternoon on one of the other draws ?
