    The bloke on the Guardian MBM is pretty much in tears at this stage. But deep-down, I reckons he's loving it.

    Barry Glendenning's take on the evening has been a interesting Twitter read. I think he may have had a few shandies.

    It is all a bit holier than thou when they're just as bad normally though. The Bulgarians need to be turfed out but a lot of these horror merchants could look a bit closer to home too.

    Yeah, it's so ridiculous.

    "We don't want to be talking about this . . ."

    Course not. So much guttedness that the game wasn't called off.

    Then again, the idea that this FARE bunch had 25 reports of racist abuse in England this year against 3 in Bulgaria makes you wonder if anyone involved in any level of this has any sense whatsoever. Some non-league game (Dover?) has been getting referenced a lot in that regard recently.

    Presumably there are FARE observers/twitter informers scrutinising that level of the game in all countries. Or not.

    As English people we should by now be used to the idea that the rest of the world is properly bitter about us.

    Barney Ronay had a quality piece the other day in which he compared racial abuse aimed at black England players to England fans singing 'Ten German Bombers', and suggested, with his tongue planted nowhere near deeply enough in his cheek, that the England side would be equally justified in walking off the pitch should that song be heard as they would be upon hearing monkey noises.

    Glenndenning made a similar point last night. Also, apparently booing the opposition national anthem is racist, and you know, not just booing the opposition.

    I was putting together a trvia fo Marcos Rashford and his goals per game ratio in the prem league since i saw a stat that Niklas Bendtner had a similar record in the league. Below, are just a few other players who have similar goals in the league (around 30) and goals per game (0.25)

    Marcus Rashford
    Sylvain Wiltord
    Nikica Jelavic
    Juninho Paulista
    Hamilton Ricard
    Henri Camara
    Rickie Lambert
    Djibril Cisse
    Nicklas Bendtner
    Mikael Forssell
    Jay Rodriguez

    My main memory of Hamilton Ricard (other than the dynamic duo of him and Brian Deane smashing us about years ago) is him attempting an absolutely dreadful shot from kickoff.

    Also when I Googled "ricard vs manchester united' this is what came up:

    Another mega signing for Woowar.

    This isn't to say he won't ever be any good, but whatever the reasons, Rashford's goalscoring record is properly crap.

    Glenn Murray 0.27 and Charlie Austin 0.32 played for shit sides and both have better goals per game ratios

    He has a lot of potential. It just hasnt taken off for him yet.

    Tammy Abraham is two goals short of his highest league total after eight games and four from all competitions (whilst playing in the PL, he’s got a lot more goals overall in forty less games)

    He’s just meh.

    The worrying thing about Rashford is that even though his end product has always been a bit ropey he usually looked, whether starting or as a sub, like he had a chance of making something happen but even that's fading.

    Vietnam won 3-1. Unfortunately, Thailand somehow best UAE at home, which isn't a great result for Vietnam.

    Elsewhere, Infantino and 0 fans watched the Korea's draw 0-0 in Pyongyang, China continued to be rubbish and drew 0-0 away to Philippines. Cambodia, coming off a 14-0 loss to Iran fared slightly better, going down 0-4 to Iraq. Africa's Herve Renard, now in charge of the Saudi's, currently 0-0 away to mighty Palestine.

    Australia battered Taiwan 1-7, India 0-0 Bangladesh having just kicked off. Japan dispatched of Tajikistan 0-3.

    They were making Nazi salutes and wrecking bars in Czechia last week so it's hardly time to be precious. Nobody is bitter about you at all, they just don't share the blinkered view that you have of yourselves.

    You weren't engaging in whataboutery when Lukaku got abused in Italy, were you? So why now? Because there's a deep visceral bitterness in many countries about the English ever being the good guys. Sometimes we are, sometimes we're not. We all need to get over ourselves - us about 80 year old world wars, and you about that.

    Having a few players abused doesn’t makes you the good guys?

    Of course if shouldn’t happen, but the uproar is massively hypocritical seeing as you lot have run rampage around Europe for decades now.

    This game is in Turku (probably because pre the decision our FA thought there wouldn’t be that much demand for this game). The stadium is shit, but at least we’re winning and so close to qualifying.

    Jesus, Mick Mc has just confirmed that he’s playing a back 3 with Enda Stevens as one of the 3 and James McClean as left wing back.

    Playing wing backs and Doherty on the bench

    Coleman is having his worst match in a long time and is a red card waiting to happen. Doherty would be absolutely ideal right now.


    EDIT: Didn’t think that’s how the red would come.

    Had no idea it wasn’t sold out so didn’t try to buy tickets. That on top of It being in Geneva will be your main factors. There’ll be as many Brits supporting Ireland as their would be neutrals.

    Also that stuff about best fans in the world. They’d all been drinking since about 2 and were mostly wankers. One of the eight blokes called Gerry I was around kept telling any woman within 5m of him that they ‘were fecking gorgeous do you want some?’

    All people are wankers. There's levels of wankdom, but we're all cunts about something.
