Chipper as ever then, Rocket? last year premier sports had all the qualifiers on.

Has there been any news about TV coverage for this tie?

Was thinking the same. Hopefully he'll go to a better team than the hunnery.

Croatia deservedly beat Spain, quick move for the second goal. Turkey beating the czechs mean them and the norn Irish qualify!

That's it confirmed that Rogers will also go out on loan. I hope it's to another premiership team, that's the level of experience he needs. Also hunsport reporting that the Arabs are after Cammy Smith on loan

England is going into meltdown about hodgson making changes yesterday especially since they wanted to top the group. Especially removing arguably the best player in the side this tournament, rooney. Wales were thoroughly deserving of the 3 points, such togetherness, unity and players and management knowing what they're doing. Well worked goals too.

If any deal was to be done, apparently it would need to be done by the end of the month due to their transfer window. Would be available on a free in December.

Beat TNS 3-0 in St Andrews by today, with harvie, stockley and Shankland scoring the goals

Watched Eddie the Eagle the other week, really enjoyed it!

Decent set of fixtures really!

From the P&J:

Apparently we're playing TNS of Wales in a friendly down at the St. Andrews training camp today.

Rovaniemi is a nice place, everyone can go visit Father Christmas. Santa is a Dandy afterall

Sounds like dirty Sevco trick that they inherited from their predecessors. Did anyone also notice that Accrington or whoever it was they're signing Windass' kid from are refusing to let them go until the compensation has been paid? Seems like they've been briefed well

France almost scored one of the best goals of the year but payet hit the bar. Decent enough Watch.

Murray currently one set down to Raonic, but has done much better in the second. Hopefully got himself wound up sufficiently to go on and win this.

Ireland pumped 3-0 by Belgium who finally clicked. Even lukaku scored two goals!

Welcome aboard!

Bilic said as much after the game. Considering he was the Croatian manager it would seem that he should have some idea of it all. Changes the perception of everything though. Yes they were scum bags that did it, but clearly, they did it for the right reasons. What better way to try and force their hand?

So with the announcement going to be made on Monday, who is everybody hoping we get / avoid? Agree with mbt, somewhere close would be beneficial for the first round at least.

I read that on twitter and haven't been bothered to check! So it's definitely not certain.

Think he's the first Don to score? Mad final 15 minutes of the Croatia - Czech game, czechs looked completely out of it but managed to get a draw after scoring a last minute penalty. Croatia are gonna get a serious fine for their fans though. Chucked about 10 flares onto the pitch, fought amongst themselves and then chucked a fire cracker onto the pitch which a steward stupidly tried to pick up, it obviously blew up in his hand.
