Lulling you in to a sense of security
Made me lol this.
Tbh I can't remember England having such a bad squad. No disrespect to Rickie Lambert & Southampton but its not good when a 31yr old is getting his 1st cap.

Agree in part. Just think Woy could have picked some younger options. Hooper for one, maybe Austin at QPR amongst others. Would not be shocked in Scotland won actually. It is their cup final after all

Won't be watching it - two distinctly poor teams playing a 100 miles an hour, struggling to keep the ball or string more than 3 passes together! Added to that lots of pointless comments of "typical British game" and "lots of passion and commitment" from whichever boring non-entity is commentating on the match. Dull, boring and technically light years behind the top European and South American nations.

Going to watch the Alan Partridge movie instead. England friendlies are so dull.
Amazing how I can go from not being bothered about an England friendly to being the most excited person during the WC. I was even thinking about going to Brazil but the place looks dangerous, the grounds are too far away from each other, and they should never have been given it really.

I wonder if, as usual for this fixture, there will be more Scotland fans than English.
Just hope they behave themselves.
Interesting story that it was the SFA chairman who pulled the plug on the fixture and not the FA.

Ditto.
Lost interest with England a couple of years ago, used to be an England member as well and watch every game like it was a WC final.
No more.

I'm nervous and rather excited about the game actually - even although I have lived in England for 30yrs and have absolutely no vested interest in Scotland (according to some). Come on Scotland. Get intae them...
Zero interest in this kick about....none at all.
I rarely miss a game but I don't see me catching any of it this evening.

Actually Im going to attempt a game of golf this evening rather than watch this!! We (6 of us) booked a tee time so we wouldn't have to watch all the game!! We are all PL footy fans normally..... says it all really.

You would rather watch a bunch of cheating overpaid foreigners than your own country, yup says it all.

Passionate England fan and will always endeavor to watch every match no matter how poor. I'm a Blackpool fan, more than used to it.
Think it's evident that there'll be a higher percentage of Scots supporting their team tonight and can't help but feel this is a contributing factor to where we fall short on the international scene. A lot of England 'fans' are only interested when we're playing at championships or against big teams and don't give a toss when we're playing in Eastern Europe for qualifiers. More than happy to get on the high horse though if we fail to win.
Makes you wonder if this sort of mentality filters through to the pitch a little ... there was certainly not much fight in the draws against Montenegro, Poland or the Ukraine.

Gong out for a curry in few mins,hope to get back for the start or at least before first half finishes.Anything less than a comfortable win,will be a disappointment to me, and would then have great concerns about getting he result required in Ukraine later in the year.

No chance. Ive been all over the world watching England and the support of the people who actually go to the games is always superb and the team know it.
Its all the armchair/pub generals who only support England when it suits them. They are the first to stick the boot in as well even though they dont even go watching!!

2-0 Scotland, might give Roy etc the kick up the backside and reality check they need...
I reckon England will win 3-1 though
