Everyone but England management wants it to happen
IIRC the argument is supposedly it gets us playing the wrong way, yes FA dimwits that'd be the entertaining way and the one the paying public wants to see.

No need to play minor nations....let them have local derby's againsts Iceland & The Faroe Isles, that is all they are good for.
If we have friendly matches it needs to be against propper opposition like France,Germany or Italy. Thumbs:

Only just.. I thought it would have been a total whitewash... redface:

In the end you were well beaten and that idiot linesman was a big help to you
But for 75 minutes it was a very close game. Strachan has worked wonders

He doesn't suffer fools gladly...
Reporter: "Gordon, can we have a quick word please?"
Strachan: "Velocity" (walks off).
I've got more important things to think about. I've got a yogurt to finish by today, the expiry date is today. That can be my priority rather than Agustin Delgado.
Reporter: "Bang, there goes your unbeaten run. Can you take it?"
Strachan: "No, I'm just going to crumble like a wreck. I'll go home, become an alcoholic and maybe jump off a bridge. Umm, I think I can take it, yeah."
"I tried to get the disappointment out of my system by going for a walk. I ended up 17 miles from home and I had to phone my wife, Lesley to come and pick me up."
Reporter: "Gordon, do you think James Beattie deserves to be in the England squad?"
Strachan: "I don't care, I'm Scottish."
Reporter: "Gordon, you must be delighted with that result?"
Strachan: "You're spot on! You can read me like a book!"
Reporter: "Welcome to Southampton Football Club. Do you think you are the right man to turn things around?"
Strachan: "No. I was asked if I thought I was the right man for the job and I said: 'No, I think they should have got George Graham because I'm useless.'"
Reporter: "There's no negative vibes or negative feelings here?"
Strachan: "Apart from yourself, we're all quite positive round here. I'm going to whack you over the head with a big stick. Down negative man, down!"
On good friend and former Aberdeen teammate Alex McLeish: "We even competed for the acne cream when we were younger. Obviously, I won that one."
Reporter: "So, Gordon, in what areas do you think Middlesbrough were better than you today?"
Strachan: "What areas? Mainly that big green one out there..."
Talking about Wayne Rooney: "It's an incredible rise to stardom. At 17 you're more likely to get a call from Michael Jackson than Sven Goran Eriksson."
On Eric Cantona's bizarre press conference: "If a Frenchman goes on about seagulls, trawlers and sardines, he’s called a philosopher. I’d just be called a short Scottish bum talking crap."
“Pahars has also caught every virus going except a computer virus and he is probably working on that even now.”
Reporter: "This might sound like a daft question, but you'll be happy to get your first win under your belt, won't you?"
Strachan: "You're right. It is a daft question. I'm not even going to bother answering that one. It is a daft question, you're spot on there."
Talking about being attacked by a Celtic fan while an Aberdeen player in 1980: "It's always great fun getting attacked. One of the highlights of my career. The fella who beat me up got fined £100 for that but they had a whip-round in the pub and he got £200!"
On his cooking ability: "It's embarrassing, I'm not proud of it. I can't even make myself anything to eat. I had to phone her and she said, 'I've left something to put in the microwave'. An hour later and I'm asking, "Where's the microwave?""
Reporter: "Is that your best start to a season?"
Strachan: "Well I've still got a job so it's far better than the Coventry one, that's for sure."
Reporter: "You don't take losing lightly, do you Gordon?"
Strachan: "I don't take stupid comments lightly either."
“I have discovered that when you go to Anfield or Old Trafford, it pays not to wear a coloured shirt because everyone can see the stains as the pressure mounts. I always wear a white shirt so nobody sees you sweat.”
On Sir Alex Ferguson while at Aberdeen: "He used to play tapes of Bill Shankly talking. I remember that and a singer he liked. I don't know who it was but it was crap. He played it on the team bus too, and all the boys hated it. Until one night it got chucked away. If he's still wondering who threw that tape off the bus, it was me. So maybe he was right and I'm not to be trusted."

Yep unless it's the Argies, Krauts or Jocks friendlies are boring
Good first goal, Rooney wasn't too good was he. Still we won.

Not too bad.
Peru defended for most of the match and it was just a case of how to play against a team that turns up without any ambition other than trying to get a draw.

Nope. noooo:
Rooney scored with a very good free kick......but then he missed too many other chances. noooo: They had a bloke sent off and I thought we might put some pressure on. noooo:
I ended up doing a Sudoku puzzle while waiting for the final of the darts to come on the tellybox.

South Africa's football captain and goalkeeper Senzo Meyiwa has died after being shot, South African police say.
The incident reportedly happened at Meyiwa's girlfriend's house in Vosloorus, south of Johannesburg.
What is it with South African international sportsmen and girlfriends? And is this going to go to extra time?

An exhausting watch. Not sure about lucky, the match was very even over the 120 minutes but we were so disappointing for 90 of them compared to what we should be able to do

Is disappointing ..posh for shite … rubschin:

Seriously underwhelmed by the Euros so far. Doubt it'll improve today.

Spain Germany was v good after a cagey first half but Portugal France was just an awful watch
Going back Austria Turkey was a gripping all action game.

Eddie Howe will be the one they want for it but why would he take on such a poisoned chalice?
Graham Potter seems more likely IMHO
