    Tell yer what my "Plaid Frock" wearing friend

    looking at the various groups I reckon there is a good chance of the British Isles having a good representation in the 2018 cup... Scotland and England can easily take the two qualifying slots... Wales have decent chance in their group as do the both the Irish teams... I so really would love to see a World cup Or European one have all the British Isles teams in it.... has that ever happened ?

    You might make the play - offs this time Ian. You're at least on par with Slovenia and Malta. Them Lithuanian's could be tricky though :)

    Archey this is Scotland we are talking about. The great underachievers. We will shoot ourselves in the foot as usual.

    But until we do we will all believe that we will win it. ALA Ally McLoud. LOL

    Slovakia are better than Scotland.
    I don't understand everyone saying it will be easy when Slovakia have won all their games in Euro 2016 qualification in a group that includes Spain.
    Plus, England only just beat Slovenia last time.

    Not saying we won't qualify or anything, given the right selection and tactics we're a good team, but I doubt it'll be as easy as everyone is already saying.

    And saying both Scotland and England can easily take the qualifying slots is crazy, England maybe but Scotland over Slovakia? Will be quite tough for them.

    You not been around Merchant Square. Honestly had a great night there and actually managed a few conversations with the natives who although at times through gritted teeth seemed friendly enough.

    I've had plenty nights out in Glasgow mate. That was just my we bit of tongue in cheek remark.

    Although I am surprised you managed to survive your visit what with being English. LOL

    It's not normally the top 2 either. Europe get 13 places at the world cup.
