Its been mentioned a few times, there was an alternative thread but folks grabbed this one. If we had mods then perhaps they could rename this one.

There was a found on X-twitter, he sells knock offs and customs. It arrived yesterday at my Mums. I'll look for the website.

I can't argue with facts. Not sure I would be happy with just a win, the context of the game will determine how that goes. We need to fight for everything and see if we are good enough.

From the highlight reel and a quote from Dick Advocaat, it seems they may take pit shots from anywhere. We need to defend well and not spill many loose balls that they jump on quicker. Defensively they seemed disorganised and lacking a disciplined shape......from a highlight reel. Im not fearing them but we need to respect them and play our game. I want to cone away with a +3 GD after this match.

Does anyone know how to contact the folks about the school bus run in Boston for the Morocco game? I have seen plenty articles but not a single mention of how to contact them. Thank-you

The players will get a baptism of literal fire, playing a semi-competitive match in the heat. Any of us who have been on holiday in America, could you imagine a 90 min kick about within 6 days. It will be gruelling. So, any and all players need to get something on Saturday even after all of the practices this week. I dont know how we can acclimate to a competitive game within two weeks. I am glad the Haiti match is first.

I am cynical about this call up, Tyler was already with the squad and it was convenient. Did Fletcher play decent on Saturday for a half? Yes, yes he did. Did he train well and impress last week? Yes I am sure he did. At best though, he has a decent half of football and a week's training. I don't think that is enough to bring him over Miller with 4 caps (not that far ahead) but at least 4 weeks coaching, not including the weeks he didn't play. Miller has also impressed on the few occasions he has been given. Talk of balance and what not seems irrelevant, Miller is not an attacking midfielder though can play there - can Gilmour? It's a gamble taking him, I don't think he will get much game time during the World cup. I will concede I am not a professional coach to know what they see.

We have the top three threads all talking about the same situation. Our site would do beter if we focused our chat in the same place. Ive been coming here for over 25 years and we almost lost our site a few years ago so keeping it thriving is something I am passionate about.

Theres already a thread discussing injuries. @Mod11 we dont need another

Hakimi is back for PSG today. We need some news on Gilmour but worst case, Lennon Miller will get called up surely.

I reckon Paterson will come on for Hickey at HT. He has had a physical half. I dont think I would change anything else just yet. BGD can get another 15/20 mins

Hoping Hickey doesnt have a broken jaw, would have preferred it was 11v11. It would be a better contest for us

Hickey was out in 2021 for 5 months with a shoulder injury. I was just concerned when he went down and took a whole to get up and has been rubbing his shoulder a lot

Remind me, didn't Hickey have a shoulder injury a few years back or am I mistaken?

Calling Hirst dung when he has done more than Shankland in 20 minutes is very harsh IMO. He has been in good positions but been crowded by defenders.
