It was all about them assuming the top seeds won the other groups, while England strolled through.

Archie McSquackle Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Not sure if this has already been posted but it's a great thread. He's put together a lot of examples. A lot of good examples there but I can sort of accept they're changing captions all the time and mistakes can happen. The debate about calling Ryan Fraser up to the England squad is something else though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 England will absolutely win their group. They are rightly the highest seeded and strongest team in it. In the last two major tournaments they reached a final and semi final. They've been on a mad unbeaten run. They are clearly a very strong team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 I've spent the past three days shaking my head at Scottish football. VAR, Colts, play-off final on a Monday night. Just stupid decisions that make things worse for the fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely better to illustrate the story with a team likely to be playing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are clearly a very strong team. They are indeed a strong team. But looking specifically at their chances of winning the WC/getting to the final (which is what SSN were plotting), then although their progress in the last two major tournaments as well as qualifiers/friendlies can't be overlooked, neither can their failures to beat fellow strong teams at tournaments. England tend to be true to form/fine at disposing of run of the mill teams (or the occasional draw such as with us) but when it comes to the likes of Italy or Belgium (I am loathe to pluralise them), when they meet these top 5 or top 10 teams in tournaments they are more often than not found wanting.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love big Boydy and I just laugh at his whole Rangers schtick however you’ve absolutely nailed it here. He does that every game at least once. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBF, I have been saying for years that they need to move the Juvenile and Amateur KO times so they do not clash with the SPFL times, it would mean hundreds of extra supporters would be able to go and watch. Missed revenue imo. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The regular live games aren’t available via PPV, so what possible reason could Sky have for wanting to block other games being made available?

Ross. Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 1 hour ago, Clown Job said: Not sure the blackout makes any difference to crowd numbers. From my point of view it would be horrendous if they reintroduce it. Been getting to watch most Bankies home games on live streams and if the blackout is brought back in that will stop. There’s a couple of hundred quid a year lost to the game, and plenty of others will be in the same situation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They paid for exclusive broadcast rights, and the success of any club broadcasting endeavours could lead to a potential competitor for them down the line. It's like saying, "Sky have only picked 48 games, why don't the SPFL just let BT Sport show some other ones". Is it even profitable for the clubs anyway? I'd guess Killie might sell, what, 100-200 PPV streams for an average game? Edited April 6, 2022 by craigkillie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
