Menga Bus Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Anyone know a good site or accommodations for bookings with free cancellations? Most places seem to be wanting full payment about a week before the booking which is obviously an issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distant Doonhamer Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Decent draw and could certainly have been worse. Wales, Ukraine and Austria will be thinking exactly the same of course. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven’t had a great record against them over the past 20 years. So putting it right in Cardiff would be epic. Eliminating Wales on the way to a World Cup was almost a tradition. One that I hope makes a welcome return. . 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergie's no1 fan Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Only thing we can moan about is the 2nd game (potentially) being away from home but other than that, bring it on. Any 4 teams are capable of qualifying. Would love to f'ck over the Welsh though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donathan Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Scotland, Ukraine, Austria and Wales are all pretty equal teams imo. None of the four area easy to beat but you can’t exactly expect to be in the World Cup without beating teams of this calibre. I genuinely think Wales are the slight favourites as they’ll have home advantage throughout. But it’s Wales 35%, Scotland 30%, Austria 20%, Ukraine 15% 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically they’re saying both semi-finals are 50-50, but whoever hosts the final has a 55% chance of winning it. Surprising to me that they seem to think HFA is significant for the final but not the SFs 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scumjob Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Any of the three sides are good enough to bum most Scotland sides trotted out over the last twenty years senseless. However this current side has been well moulded over the last couple of years and perhaps came of age fully against Denmark earlier this month. That side, Steve Clark's side WILL sweep these fodder aside if they can reach the same levels again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotland, arguably, are. Scotland are on the ascendancy. We have some top class individuals, but also a close-knit team on form. On paper, we are the best out of the 4. I think they'd all be happy they've swerved the big guns. But if they underestimate us, we'll destroy them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the group games we played were sometimes a hard watch , we got points when needed and slowly improved .. i doubt any of the 3 other teams could play the way we did against Denmark .. If we can even come close to that , we can do this.. never over confident , but its a team/ squad of players who i really believe want to win this.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant228 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Already been asked most likely, but if Wales get beat by Austria then is it still away in Austria, or would we then be at home? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMMjag Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 If we ended up playing Wales in the final it's already a mental victory. Playing at Cardiff Stadium = shitebags. Playing at Millennium = hounded off the park by a majority away support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're away in the final regardless. Not necessarily a bad thing, if you cast your mind back to our games against Austria. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making it to a Wales v Scotland play-off will bring back huge memories - some great, some bad (very bad). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
