  • World Cup Draw - BBC 2 @ 5pm

    England are ranked 4th favourites, so wont meet the other big guns until the semi-finals. You'll get an easy opening group befitting your world ranking.

    Scotland, I guess will come out in Pot 3, so will have it hard.

    Republic of Ireland will come out in Pot 4 if they win their two play off games. It will be a dufficult WC group should they qualify.

    Wales still have to beat Bosnia & Italy just to get there, but we'll soon know who we could be facing. We'll be coming out in Pot 4, so it will be a difficult group for us. Hopefully NI can beat Italy in the first round play off for a Wales v NI play off final in March.

    Plenty of Qpr interest, with RND & Dunne. Not sure on the Caribbean & African front.

    It all depends on the play offs but we could also have Paul Smyth there if N Ireland win , Burrell and Hayden if Jamaica win , Tylon Smith and Richard Kone. So we could have seven players at the world cup finals in the summer but still ca'nt beat a #### Norwich team.

      I gave up after 30mins viewing. It was sickening to behold.

      I don't like fact that boxing has loads of governing bodies, WBA, WBC, IBF etc etc but effing hell, someone urgently needs to start up an alternative to FIFA.

        It was very OTT and a lot of egos getting stroked!

        Wales got a great draw, if we can get passed Bosnia & Italy / NI. Italy are where they are based on current form, but im sure there'll some dodgy decisions to help a big country through. With FIFA Rankings, we got Switzherland (17), Canada (27), Wales (32) and Qatar (52). Very lucky to get one of the home nations who are ranked quite low.

        Scotland got a stinker with Brazil & Morocco

        Happy with the England draw against Croatia, Panama & Ghana?

            They have made it as easy as they can for Mexico, Canada and the U.S.A. to get through , as you say some groups weak and some quite tough

                Flight booked 8th June to 13th July @ New York for £415 with Norse and back leg can be changed for £100 fee.

                Hostels booked for Wales games should we qualify and 100% refundable if we dont.

                              BMO Field (which may be renamed Toronto stadium for the WC), is right on the Lakeshore, if it's a windy day, wear a thick jumper lol.

                              And remember in NY and Toronto, a jumper is someone who is suicidal
