3pm on Friday (lasts about an hour) BBC2.
Presented by Gary Lineker! Surprised he was given the job considering he has been a vocal twitter critic of FIFA.

Can you imagine the excitement and all the extra threads in here if we had made it.
Anyway I’ll probably watch it even though after the Denmark game I said I wouldn’t

Tomorrow will be the most depressing day since the Denmark game.

Makes me annoyed thinking about it.  This time last year we odds on to win the group. 4 matches to come at home. FFS

I'm sure I'll watch it and be enthusiastic about it next summer but I couldn't give a toss about tomorrow. Still too depressing to think about, let alone watch the draw.

Strangely I'm actually looking forward to it.

No interest in watching this tomorrow only reason I'd put myself through it would be if we were in it and had planned to book flights etc

This will be a case of Jim Bowen and look at what you could've won



And yes I will be glued to it.  And yes I am going anyway but really hope I don't get to see Denmark.

Was going to say this myself. This is going to really rub it in that we haven't made it. Cry
 
I'll watch it anyway. Still pondering myself whether to go anyway to Moscow for a few days and was going to wait to see how the draw goes (not booking anything before then in case England are drawn to play there - really keen to avoid their crowd after the last 'meeting' between them and the Russians).
 
If flights are too awkward or expensive though, I'll reluctantly give it a miss and watch it at home.  Are you all booked already or waiting to see what travel options are available?

Makes absolute sense tbh, he's been a leader in cleaning corruption in Fifa so having him part of the draw ensures the draw is clean.

For the lads mentioning Denmark and be crucifying themselves they got an easy draw - Gary Lineker did a rehearsal today as they've done everyday and they were matched with Brazil, England and Morocco. 
Serbia got the slightly easier draw of Peru, Iran and Portgual

I'm all booked with a schedule that shouldn't change or maybe change a little.

I'm not concerned re hooliganism.  Putin will want this to succeed.  He probably was happy re the issues in France.  read into that whatever you wish.  There is a terror threat but of course that could happen anywhere.
