Anyway I dont think it matters a whole lot who we put out, Scotland are a better team than our best XI (which we wont be fielding - I count at least 4 out now, possibly as many as 6). They also rested their first XI last night I believe. It will take a huge performance to get a result on Saturday - I just dont see it coming, but we live in hope!

The rest of the team is completely interchangeable as they clearly don't give a sh*t. 

More nonsense from you.

Be thankful we didn’t get England, Holland or f**king Belgium; we’d be in danger of losing by 6 or 8 goals.

What do you mean be thankful? It was impossible because that's not how the the NL works. LOL

Mad we're not calling up Smallbone from the U21s for this, when we seem so short of creative midfield talent in the seniors.

Don’t be pedantic, you know what I was saying. *Had we been in a position to be playing teams of that calibre* we would be embarrassed.

Why is it mad. They've a chance to top their group and qualify automatically if they win on Tuesday against Italy

Portugal were appalling on the night, but still a good result.

Because it's a competitive game for the senior team - obviously.  And the one thing we are clearly short of is creativity.  

Using your logic, if we were to prioritise an underage game, we should send Knight, Parrott, Collins, Ebosele, Obafemi and Bazunu (if recovered) over to Italy with the U21s. 

In fact - maybe we should!  Give up on the senior team and go all out for the U21s!

(Actually, I'd like to see us field our strongest possible "under 21" XI if we qualify for the "U21" Euros).

That wouldn't be very fair on the lads who actually helped us qualify.
