Bulgaria and Croatia losing actually opens up for Norway grabbing that last qualifier spot if they can win their last two games, Slovenia away tonight and Iceland at home next week.

 

We should beat Iceland at home, but Sovenia away might be more difficult, I predict a 0-0 draw.

A Forest Fan mate who hates us just told me that he reckons if Sturridge and Suarez stay fit this season we'll get top four. Think people are starting to take us seriously.

 

Watching Andros Townsend today, I couldn't help but think that Sterling, possibly Ibe and definitely Wisdom all need loan football to raise their game to the level we think they're capable of.

Trivial question, but anyone know why some national teams don't have the names of the players printed on the back? I noticed it watching Montenegro last night and the South American and African world cup qualifiers.

 

guess its just a choice thing like most clubs do in friendlies, when it comes to competitions where they have set squad numbers for the whole thing I think they all have names on then

Coady starting for Sheff United vs Coventry on Sky Sports 1, in 10 minutes.

 

had a cracking afternoon watching Lower league football this afternoon, turned Barnet v Wrexham on at the 80th minute mark and saw 3 red cards including for Edgar Davids and former red Stephen Wright, and a cracking goal from a free kick then Cov v Shef United with Coventry racing 3-0 ahead and could've been more and was really impressed by their strike duo and as a whole they looked an excellent side for a bunch of kids supplemented by the odd journeyman then Sheffield United got two back and made a game of it in the end

 

much better than bloody internationals

Senegal's 2002 World Cup coach Bruno Metsu has died from cancer.

Bruno Metsu, the French manager who stunned then-world champions Les Bleus at the 2002 World Cup with Senegal, has died after a long struggle with cancer.

 

Metsu, 59, passed away on Monday night at a clinic in his native northern France after losing his battle against colon, liver and lung cancer.

 

A former professional player at Valenciennes, Lille, Nice and Beauvais, he shot to global prominence 11 years ago when his Senegal side defeated his native country, who were also reigning European champions at the time. Pape Bouba Diop's goal in the opening game of the finals in Seoul sealed a 1-0 win for the Lions of Teranga, launching a campaign which saw them become the first Afican nation to reach the quarter finals in 12 years.

 

After leaving the Senegal job later the same year, Metsu spent the rest of his career coaching in the Persian Gulf in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and latterly at Dubai-based club Al Wasl, which he left in 2012.
