Even in this it looks like he's in the middle of a round of golf and is stuck in the bunker with the pin.Happy to qualify but the pitches look a bit rough…

Yeah was thinking about that after I posted.It is a lot easier to qualify now as there are more teams in tournaments. During Bests time there was only 16 teams qualified.
Fine margins then, massive shame. Nice one for the research.Did some research. I don't know anything of his NI teammates so cannot comment on their quality. They had a great chance in 1966 but appear rather average/weak going forward.
1966 - finished second to Switzerland; needed a win the last qualifier to match the Swiss result ten days prior - gave up a late goal in a draw - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1966_FIFA_World_Cup_qualification_–_UEFA_Group_5
1970 - couldn't topple the Soviet Union in head-to-head - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1970_FIFA_World_Cup_qualification_–_UEFA_Group_4
1974 - finished third including a loss to mighty Cyprus - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1974_FIFA_World_Cup_qualification_–_UEFA_Group_6
Yeah, that was nice to see. Both the Welsh fans and Ukrainian fans were great. It was a nice change of pace from the typical adversarial/goading (not that I'm against that all the time) that you typically get at the end of such a match. Just nice to see Bale going to a World Cup.The VAR decision was awful. I’m happy with Wales though, the effort was outstanding and the stadium was buzzing. All the players went to the Ukraine section to clap them, was nice to see. The Ukrainian supporters were great.
But no ones gonna hate Wales for it? Never on the agenda unless you are Wales fan absurdly claiming it. The pressure was all on Ukraine.What could we do ? We were going to be hated for knocking Ukraine out but I’m absolutely buzzing right now and cracked the first of many beers open to celebrate our little but beautiful country making it to the World Cup…never thought I’d see it my lifetime and after a shitty season or ten with my beloved United then I’m gonna milk this for all it’s worth… CYMRU AM BYTH
Thorsby seems to have mastered some theatrics at Sampdoria.If we don't beat this Sweden team we need to permanently retire our NT.
Good to be on the right end of a shit Taylor decision for onceThorsby seems to have mastered some theatrics at Sampdoria.
But Taylor shouldn’t be fooled like that.
You think you’re kidding but I would not be surprisedMessi hat-trick against second string Estonia side. Benzema can kiss his balon d'or goodbye.
Yeah right about the VAR decision, it was an awful call. Hennessey was outstanding, really came through. The defence as a whole was very good, I think Conte has had a great effect on Ben DaviesWell done Wales.
Now do the same to England in November now please (same applies to Iran & USA)
Thought Ukraine were unlucky with that VAR decision but Hennssey was fantastic in goals! That save near the end from Dovbyk’s header was something else.
I was shocked the little bastard passed Portugal looking really sharp after a rocky start!Jota forced to assist this time.
You can be against Scottish nationalism and support Scotland. I'm sure you know this and are just being a typical " we are so superior " England fan.Out of curiosity, who does actually support Scotland?
From what I can tell, all the Celtic fans either support Ireland or nobody, and all the Rangers fans don't support them because they're against Scottish nationalism/independence, and that's probably 80% of the football fans in the country.
Did they show Yma O Hyd on the telly? It was Incredible

No, he’s a superior Welsh fanYou can be against Scottish nationalism and support Scotland. I'm sure you know this and are just being a typical " we are so superior " England fan.
I will grant you that most Celtic supporters do support Ireland. Even the ones with no Irish connection whatsoever. Something that has increased dramatically in the last 25 years.
Yeahh 5 goals todayGOAT things on scene right now boys !! What a rocket
Starting laughing there then stopped and thought ...............Messi hat-trick against second string Estonia side. Benzema can kiss his balon d'or goodbye.
he’d have like 200 by now.So this is what Messi would do if he faced cannon fodder in Europe
Yeahh 5 goals today
Stonewall penalties not given.Got to love English refs
If Benzema doesn’t win then they are better to give the trophy to Messi until he dies of old age. What the hell he did this year? Salah, Benzema the Polish striker with a mile long name were way better than him.Messi hat-trick against second string Estonia side. Benzema can kiss his balon d'or goodbye.
Nope, I'm Welsh. I got that impression from a Rangers forum (was browsing to get an idea of how Amad was getting on) and saw a thread on the Scottish national side and how most of the Rangers fans on there said they didn't support them, and even the few that did were saying they fecking hated the Tartan Army.You can be against Scottish nationalism and support Scotland.
