austria vs england

[Stevie H]

the most pointless friendly in the history of pointless friendlies? and why is it on a friday night at 8pm? and why has mclaren picked a midfield of beckham - gerrard - lampard - cole? particularly when only two of them are playing regular top-level football? and is anybody going to watch it?

[Guest petelfc]

Go Austria!!

[Hassony]

its amazing that beckham got back in the squad after scoring 2 goals against a bunch of actors in a charity match!!!

 

did argentina try and call up maradonna after he scored in that unicef game last year?

 

 

what happens if england win, I suppose SCS will be happy that he can drop SWP and Barry to bring back his mates

[Guest petelfc]

Whatever minsicule crumb of support I had for England has quickly evaporated with the inclusion of that footballing fraud, Beckham.

Cobs.

At least he gives a s*** and produce something on the pitch for England. Not that I care much, I have Swedens game at the Bernabeu to "look forward to"..brrrr. If we get a point there I'll be very proud of the boys.

i'm guessing

 

 

1) for practice for next wednesday, which depending on The Russia/Israel game may well prove to be utterly pointless

2) to give an extra day's rest to the players for next wednesday

3) see point 1 above

4) 3 of them are playing regularly, Beckham is just ace.

5) yes and i bet you & Gilps do too

[Cobs]

cobs is at home already

i work from home you bell

And it wasn't even the cast of Escape to Victory...

I'm sure the sponsors insisted...

[kenny7]

One of our many youth keepers is playing for the Bulgarian U21's at the mo, and Beckhams only playing in order to get him close to 100 caps he'll definetly be playing against Croatia barring injury.

Thanks to ORF2 I can actually watch it.

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

Macca's prediction:

 

A really f***ing dull game, won 2-0 and completely unconvincingly by ENglaND

[anfield11]

I wonder if they are effectively out by tomorrow, if they will load up the team with Mancs on Wednesday?!?

[LondonLiverpoolFan]

This is absolutely dire.

 

I'm actually considering putting Children in Need back on....

[LondonLiverpoolFan]

Edit: double post

 

Oh and there's England's first real effort. 32 mins in.

owen off?

[Guest JV]

Owens injured

[LondonLiverpoolFan]

Thigh strain according to Geoff Shreeves.

 

Bet the Geordies are happy.

Owens injured

He's not injury prone

[CarraLegend]

Comical. You just expect him to get injured everytime he steps onto the pitch, it's ridiculous. And people would still have us paying about £10m and 100k a week for him.

[Guest Kaizer]

owen off?

 

You could not make it up.

 

Well thats him out of the Newcastle game then probably, I was hoping to get to see him again next Saturday.

[LondonLiverpoolFan]

Fair play to Manninger there. Diving in at the feet of Joe Cole and not writhing around in agony after the save. Jurgen Macho was meant to have swallowed his tongue earlier after the clash with Crouch wasn't he?

 

Goal for Crouch from a corner.
