Big game tonight

Are you standing with your host nation, Geezer?

Seeing as mrs G is swedish dude looks like I,ll have too if I know whats good for me

Not doing too good JK , the Finns that is , Zlatan on 3 and some good serves from Källström , WH sign him up FFS , I,ve been wanting him at UP for about 4 yrs , runs his balls off like SP

Shameful. 5 cheap goals. My son's IFK99 side could have defended better. At least they know which side to be when marking an opponent at a free kick. And surely there must be a better keeper in Finland - they should fast track Finnish nationality for IFK Mariehamn's Josh Wicks. Worse thing for me is seeing Zlatan score a hat-trick - I can't stand the self important prat. I guess thats some revenge for the ice hockey.

Thankfully I'm still English so I don't have to feel the pain!.

:oops:

With you there dude

You are right about Källström, G. I haven't seen him play for a while. I remember saying we should sign him when he was still playing in Sweden (at Djurgården I think?) Who does he play for now?

Your right JK he was at Djurgården now he Plays for Lyon

turned it over after the 3rd goal was painful to watch some of it

You didn't have to suffer that match in the UK did you 3W? It would have put the conference to shame!

Finland had the makings of a decent side when Hodgson was in charge. Tight defence, hard working midfield & Litmanen still pulling a few strings in the hole. The only problems were pace at the centre back positions with Hyppia & Tihanen & the lack of a goalscorer. It's all gone to shit since he left. Okay some players have retired but they had a Euro qualifying u-21 side & have completely failed to take advantage of that. Some of the errors made yesterday would see a schoolboy dropped. My son didn't even want to take the offer to stay up & watch once the goals started rolling in.

On the plus side the Swedish manager does a very good impression of a 1970's northern club circuit comedian.
