Richey Edwards Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 I actually think we'll take them. Am I just a blind optimist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grass Is Greener. Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Why not? I reckon we could get a lot of joy from their defence, we've got the players and game plan to cause them problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_K_97 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Heading to this with my Dad, justified the cost by giving him the ticket as an early Christmas present. Going to West in Bridgeton for a couple of lagers and a scranchester before heading round to Parkhead to collect my tickets. I'm optimistic about it - while the odds are (correctly) against us, the England team doesn't exactly strike fear into me. It'd be good to see the likes of May and Russell come on as subs and show what they can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordopolis Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Bookies have england as strong favourites so I'm hopeful more than expectant. We'll probably see a spirited and tidy performance only to be outdone by Barkley, wellbeck or sterling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banana Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I expect England to win this by a goal, perhaps two. I reserve the right to change my mind once the lineups are known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityDave Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 The match will be shown live on ITV1, programme starts at 19:30. £50-60 is a disgrace, rip off. I hope the money is going to a good cause. Checked the SFA website only 28 seats left in the North Stand Upper as I post . http://www.scottishfa.talent-sport.co.uk/PagesPublic/ProductBrowse/standAndAreaSelection.aspx?stadium=CP&product=ENGL14&type=H& Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're jumping in there with the assumption that I had the idea the gate money should go to something outside the SFA. I never said it should.

I never said it should.Accepted, but I think it's fair to say that in normal parlance referring to money going to a good cause would be suggesting it's going to an external charity.

CityDave Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Accepted, but I think it's fair to say that in normal parlance referring to money going to a good cause would be suggesting it's going to an external charity. I don't know if some of the gate money will go towards the Ebola Charity or any other external cause, but it would be safe to assume the gate money would be split and some would go towards SFA interests such as coaching and youth development. There will be donations made towards Unicef's Ebola Charity and the UK government have said they will match up to 5m of public donations. There will be a phone number available if people want to make a donation and an appeal that will go out before and during half time during the broadcast on ITV and Sky. I would assume there will be people collecting outside the ground before the game as well. http://news.stv.tv/scotland/299807-uk-government-to-match-ebola-charity-donations-at-scotland-v-england-game/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throbber Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Its not being too optimistic, bookies have us at about 3/1 and i would strongly recommend anyone to jump on that England won't be as up for it as we are, plus we're on the back of a great victory from Friday.
