Grandad. Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 As good as it would be, yes Hugo I am agreeing with you. It just wouldn't happen, ever.
LCFC FOX Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 thats just stupid. theres actually a case for competing as the UK. decent players getting the chance to play at world and euro championships for one. imagine if we could of had giggs and keane in our sides? imagine us now with bale no no no! It can't happen. Scotland and Wales laugh and always want us to fail. No way should we let them be apart of our success. England till I die
Finnaldo Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 I don't think the Welsh would ever let us live it down if we joined because they have world class players and we don't.
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 Why not just have 2 teams in 1 league, north and south. 5 a-side. Give the kids a chance.

Guest MattP Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 Exactly, cheeses me off they always get an ashes test at Cardiff while one of the more traditional English test grounds miss out. A 5 game ashes series should be played at Lords, The Oval, Trent Bridge, Headingley and Old Trafford or Edgbaston, should not go near Cardiff as generally the Welsh are not interestedi in supporting England. To be fair the Welsh seem to love the game just as much as we do, my only trip there the ground was absolitely packed and everyone was enjoying watching it. It;s very 'British' Welsh who seem to have taken to it and you'd be amazed how many Welsh (and Scots) follow us abroad as well, in New Zealand I'd say about 25% of our fans were from either. Completely right on the Ashes tests though, should be held at traditional grounds, I include not giving one to Durham in that either. On the subject of Wales at football though it's going to be funny to see how they even manage to **** up qualification with three spaces to get there and Bale and Ramsay in the team.
Finnegan Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 Well that's easy, Matt, they'll both be injured for over half the games and Coleman is awful.
Dan Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 We wouldn't because we'd probably rotate Bale with Welbeck and play Ramsey out wide.
Dan Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 Hahahahahahahahahhahhahhaaahhah. Ha. Nice one. I somehow imagine that this would've been our reaction if people would've said that USA would go further than us in 2010 and 2014. I'm genuinely scared.
Lord Nibblington Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 Having a flying Real Madrid forward player who pretty much plays anywhere and scores goals for fun, can obviously compensate for the alarming deficiencies that exist in the rest of the squad, especially in defence, and easily lead to a World Cup Semi Final place. I mean. Just look at how well that plan worked for Portugal...
Guest MattP Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 Dan is actually right. Bale would be on the bench for Welbeck, as he plays in the Premier league for Man and is obviously young, gifted and black. Ramsay would probably lose out to Henderson.
Finnegan Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 You laugh but Lofty and PotM probably actually think Henderson is better than Ramsey.
Corky Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 I somehow imagine that this would've been our reaction if people would've said that USA would go further than us in 2010 and 2014. I'm genuinely scared. We'll just cheer on Kingy.
Vacamion Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 One thing's for sure, the Sweaty Socks would have no part in it. In 2012 it was made pretty clear up here that any Scots who agreed to play for GB would be seen as betraying Scottish football (they are scared that FIFA would rescind their national team's status). We ended up with a team of English plus a handful of Welsh. It's never going to happen.
MooseBreath Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 You seen Bale on that advert with his Patrick Berger head band on? Think I'd rather be shit than have that girly little princess in the team. He isn't even a particularly good footballer.
Larry_LCFC Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 More importantly, what would be called? England & Wales is a bit boring. "Shit" sounds quite catchy?
Vacamion Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 More importantly, what would be called? England & Wales is a bit boring. Wangland.
Mikey Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 You seen Bale on that advert with his Patrick Berger head band on? Think I'd rather be shit than have that girly little princess in the team. He isn't even a particularly good footballer.
Grandad. Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 Nah I don't think Henderson is better than Ramsey, I just have a brain though and would get them both in the side. Good thing is though it will never happen so we don't even have to argue about it.
Hugo Sanchez Posted 3 July 2014 Author Posted 3 July 2014 Hahaha albert seriously the day they were giving out football knowledge, you must have been wanking into a sock because you haven't got any ! Jordan Henderson is a terrible excuse for a footballer and the fact you defend him and make out he's any good makes you look like a sausage.
MPH Posted 3 July 2014 Posted 3 July 2014 If we'd had Bale and Ramsey this summer then we'd of probably made it to the last 16 and that's it because our defense would of still been the worst we've had for 20 years....

Maybe a bit of Welsh magic would have got us out of the group.
