    You have to congratulate Woy, on having the balls to pick Townsend, who was the big difference in the last two games. But it was an easy group, one that should have been tied up before last night.

    Hopefully England go to Brazil, with no ridiculous expectation heaped on their backs, that Woy, picks players in form, rather than all the old favourites and more importantly players who are actually fit for the campaign.

    We won't win it...but FFS let's not be an embarrassment, yet again.

    True, but on the other hand we could easily have been four or five up at half time, which would have been game over long before Poland even got a sniff of our goal.

    Forster isn't a good goalkeeper, in my opinion.

    Jim O'Brien is mates with Darren O'Dea who is mates with James Forrest and Scott Brown, both of which are teammates of Forster. It all makes sense :D

    Agreed. That 98 team was very strong.
