ÈcosseFCUK Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 Who would be up for a regular fixture at the end of each season with ROI....it would have to be home and away you couldn't wait 2 years to go to Dublin...but then again playing teams regular does bring in a bit animosity....would prefer to play ROI than england ...too much hassle playing those overrated bile spewing '*#!}$
At U Peter Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 I'm not in favour of playing any team regularly tbh

ParisInAKilt Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 I'm not in favour of playing any team regularly tbh This, as much as I loved Dublin
radian_13 Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 I personally prefer not playing teams again so soon, going to Dublin or London so soon having played them wouldn't be anywhere bear as good. Need to be a few years in between.

If you want to go to Dublin on the ran dan once a year there's nothing stopping you...
Charlie Endell Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 What would be the point? If you want to go to Dublin on the ran dan once a year there's nothing stopping you... Aye, and it'll cost a fraction of the price - RyanAir do return flights from Glasgow for 20 quid provided there isn't a major event on e.g. rugby or football. Great city - never once have I been and failed to enjoy myself tremendously.
scottincarlisle Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 Definitely would get boring. Wembley in 2013 was a novelty for some, the fixture last year came too soon for most.
Green_Tide_Rising Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 Would take the edge off when we do meet competitively Two great sets of fans - who when get together create a fantastic atmosphere and have great banter with each other Regular fixtures would only dilute it - leave it in the lap of the gods as to when we meet - will keep it more of a special occasion
wanderer Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 Nope..... Last week had the edge of it being a qualifier, to play a regular friendly would just get boring very fast (look how fast the prospect of games v England lost interest after the game last year!). Only when UEFA/FIFA draw us together or a friendly once in a blue moon
Bristolhibby Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 Go over and watch Scotland play rugby every second year. Was over there last year and it was great craic. J
euan2020 Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Go over and watch Scotland play rugby every second year. Was over there last year and it was great craic. J ther's his solution - go watch the rugby freindlies would lose peoples interest
fridge Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 It was a good weekend but Jesus Christ what all this Irish love in about
blackcountry jock Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Worst idea ever imo Leave to qualifiers as said before to much gets boring unless they bring back home nations comp them that different
slasher Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 It's not that long since folk on here were complaining about plastic paddys etc. what a difference a weekend makes! Dublin was awesome but let's leave it till fate puts us together again ;-)
DoonTheSlope Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Bad move. For years I was desperate for an England game, we then got Wembley and had one of the best few days following Hibs or Scotland IMO. Played well for an hour then lost our way, then we got the return game a year later and failed to turn up and they didn't need to break sweat. As good a time we had out in Glasgow last November it wouldn't bother me if we never ever played them again

DoonTheSlope Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 If we are going to have a friendly at the end of each season and it's not for the benefit of the team for an upcoming as its the end off the season unless there's a tournament then let's branch out and play Uruguay, Ivory Coast or someone we've never played or not faced for years
jimstroma Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 International challenge matches/ friendlies do not have the same appeal as qualifiers. Dublin was a great trip, but Warsaw and Dortmund have also been brilliant trips so far this campaign with Tbilisi and Faro to look forward to.

Robroysboy Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 We had three games in dublin in the Carling Cup, then re-visited last weekend- thats four times in 2 years? Plenty more countries to visit and hopefully one of those will be Paris next year. All international freindly dates will be taken up by a " league format" to be rolled out by uefa. It will result in alot of more games and less opportunity to choos your opponents. So its a non starter.
