    @KBslittlesis @guinnessaddick @seth plum you are all dead to me until after these games 
    Eh?
    I support England in the football and Ireland in the rugby.
    It has always been thus.
    Especially since the Irish insist on calling it soccer ffs……..even though football is back on the kit 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤣🤣🤣

    No excuse not for England to win this group easily, though motivation may be a problem.

    Do you advocate that national teams only ever play EC and WC qualifiers and finals then Beds?

    Doesn’t it contribute to you qualifying seeding for World Cup and Euros?
    Yes... We'll be in Pot 2 for World Cup Qualification, so could end up being in a Group with France if we want to get to the 2026 World Cup

    Less than proper tournaments, more than friendlies.

    I find them interesting, it's great for smaller nations especially as an extra path towards qualification. San Marino drawn with Liechtenstein meaning a tasty tie which could see them get their first ever competitive international win

    Better than friendlies, important for seeding, the players clearly care about it, some smaller nations have seen real improvement because of it.

    plenty of reasons to appreciate it.

    16 teams qualify from Europe now, so it'll almost be harder for us not to qualify.

    Even if we were in a group with say France or Spain and came 2nd we'd surely still be good enough to get through the play offs.

    Not entirely sure about that. What's more interesting, next months friendly with Brazil or a nations league game with Finland?

    Nations league group B is pretty uninspiring let's be honest.

    I'm not particularly interested in the nations league but I think as what you have stated it has some strong positives.

    First Nations league was awesome, Kanes winner against Croatia and then the finals in Porto. 

    The last one was shit cos some of the games were in the summer when none of the players wanted to play after a long season.

    Nations League is a very welcome replacement to meaningless friendlies.

    Have booked hotels for Dublin, Athens and Helsinki.
