Maybe not the right thread  but there's a really good article in The Times today about 1958 World Cup and certain events in the qualifiers etc. 

RIP Tony Waiters too. 

RIP

 

I watched a few matches he managed when he was in Vancouver. He also managed Canada to our only WC in '86.

 

Struck me as a decent human being, to boot.

He was our goalie coach, late 60s early 70s?

Positive covid test in Brazil squad.

 

Menino.

 

Hopefully has been kept well away from our lads.

 

 

"In the tests carried out yesterday, Gabriel Menino tested positive for Covid-19. All other players in the group tested negative," Brazil doctor Rodrigo Lasmar explained.

"It is important to note that, on Monday, when the players arrived, all members of the delegation were tested and the results were negative.

"We have already informed the medical department of Palmeiras. The player is asymptomatic, is already isolated and has been cut from the squad.

"All protective measures are being taken. We will perform a new round of tests before our trip to Uruguay, after the game [against Venezuela].

Jesus Adrian to the rescue. Vardy could get a hat trick in a 4-3 win for us.

How long is the black lives matter kneeling thing gonna be kept up for?

Until racism is completely eradicated obviously.

[Bjornebye]

Scotland not doing too bad here. If it stays like this till 65 mins and Griffiths comes on I'd fancy them to win 

 

EDIT: Ooooh no Robbo missed a sitter! 

 

EDIT 2: Ryan Christie !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1 nil 

[polymerpunkah]

Decent goal by Christie there.

 

Keeper a bit asleep/unsighted? Or perhaps how shitty the footing is.

 

Credit to Clarke, Scotland are a much better side now.

Yeah, he didn't state that. It''s an international game. It's happening all over the world still. Clown. 

 

If making a stand against racism is virtue signalling in your world then you're a pretty questionable human.

It's a game being played in England, involving England. I'm sure Section can pipe in here if I've got the wrong end of the stick.

I think at this level, ie international, then the protocol is more UEFA/FIFA , the FA will be responsible for the pyramid at championship division and below.

 

However, in answer to the initial question of when will taking the knee for Black Lives Matter end?

 

 arguably that’ll be when Black Lives Matter 

[Bjornebye]

Nervous times for Scotland. NI have just equalised on 87 minutes 

[Bjornebye]

Fuck sake Scotland. 1:1 

[niallers]

Then no doubt two Nations League games in Slovakia and Israel 

[an tha]

Oh ffs....all we need is Robbo having to go through another 30 mins.

 

Fucking unreal - 3 games in a week and one of them goes 120 mins.

 

[Creator Supreme]

Fucking hell, late goals in all 3 qualifiers being played now - Iceland leading from 11th to 88th minute and now they're 2-1 down to Hungary!
