The Football.....

Is it time for a team GB in international football? England and Scotland have won nothing on their own (ignoring the dodgy 66 result which is the exception that proves the rule) whereas together, these two nations created the largest Empire the world has ever seen.

If marmion says yes we can all get behind it. So no then. Not a chance.

It would be better if Scotland were there (obviously) but I have come to accept that I'll maybe never see that again - unless Mr Strachan has other ideas!

Marmy! Not even the powers that be would be able to swing it to get Scotland to the World Cup.

there aren't any Scottish players worth a place in a combined team.

It's the first chance I've had to watch Iran. They're looking pretty solid against Argentina.

I'm shouting for Iran <I'd best not let anyone in the Politics sub-forum know or they'll be trying to have me thrown out of the country>

Me too. It's not just an underdog thing, they're worth the support.

Just as long as you keep out of England!

You're welcome to Norway any time!

Messi! Who else?

Heartbreaking for Iran, though.

Stunning goal from Messi, Iran must be gutted after their display to not get something out of the game.

This World Cup just gets better and better!

 

[Pro Tour Punditry]

KLOSE! Get in there you old legend!

A proper strikers goal.
