Croatia vs Ingerland -5.00

Scoreline hides the fact England's defence has been shocking.

Well done Reg.  Nailed before HT.  Be a different game 2nd half

Its the GORDON SHOW
0-4

movement and passing been as good as I've seen from England

Croatia are so bad England look fantastic.

jeez you England fans are a hard lot to please 4-0 up could have been 8
and moaning about the defence... who have been untroubled but for one slack ball

As bad as Croatia have been, England have been tremendous.

Gordon missed two sitters which is a worry

Saka did nt pass the ball first time which is a worry

WOW

ome lady just tweeted england are 3up

If England had any decency they would let croatia score at least two for the kids

1 more to land the -5 in fred title

Kane Bellers Gordon Saka are a decent front 4

Keepers Collapsed

Awful miss saka for them on over 6.5 goals.

Engerland have broken betfair,..

C R A S H

6 goals 6 assists.  All goals from open play.  Not often you see that.

7 up

M A G N I F I C E N T

Love the mumsnet-style message while people are sitting with open positions and a 175 pulse.

Back soon

We’re quickly pausing Betfair while we bring you a smoother experience.

Come back soon and we’ll see you then.

Best in running game for me for a while, kept going higher on goals
Just hope they don't void any in play markets with the crash

What
EXPERIENCE?

Had some voided on other games.

Hope it sticks for you on this game,Reg.

Cheers, yhtl...did all my bets pre half time so should be OK...posted on this thread, not aftertiming...had a few decent bets, for me anyway

As I said earlier,  Croatia so bad, like a non league team, if that

Just looked, all bets settled...
Just told the missus to get her coat, we're going out to eat...anything off the set menu, obviously

not sure if there was VAR tonight but beatibg VAR 7 nil is a far  better effort than beating croatia 7 nil

1tp...I thought the ref tonight was brilliant, the best I've seen for a while...was letting the game flow, letting good old fashioned tackles go. Not blowing up for every small thing

Nice one Reg.

Looked as if Croatia defence shot themselves
on foot dropping deep on wrong side of pitch so engerland front 4 could run wherever they wanted with almost zero chance of being offside.

Yhtl...Croatia were just so poor in every department, I don't want to take away from England doing OK, but I genuinely think that Croatia tonight would have lost to Gibraltar or Andorra
They were just second best, slow, clueless

...anything off the set menu, obviously

Reminds me of the Royle family when Jim is going out. 'Get yer coat Barb!', Why, you taking me with you?, 'No, I'm turning the gas fire off!'

Millridge, I'm not made of money...
But we'll finish off with a couple of drinks in Spoons
I know how to treat my women

Enjoy!

to quote del boy to rodders
croatia supplied the school kids, england suplied  the 7 UP

BORO legacy game tomorrow sold out, looking forward to watching a game with no pressure on and the little fella produce a bit of magic,BORO just dont do big testimonial/charity match crowds ,should be a good day, walk on role from ravenelli had a bad leg break apparently few yrs ago

Ironopolis was always a brilliant name so I'll be cheering them on, (from safety of forum) should be a brilliant day 1tp,i love
that sort of stuff, wolfman to score the winner!

i used to drink in the IRO NOPOLIS club before/after game since boro,s 1st game a THE t RIVERSIDE, but i also used to go in THE ERIMUS pub in cleveland centre for a few games of ool before hitting the town back in the day so conflicted
both now gone,THE ERIMUS long gone

Excellent performance from England this evening. 7-0 away from home and yes Croatia are on a poor streak of form, but all you can do is beat them and we didn't, we thrashed them. England still need to find a way to defend better, because a better side, as Spain showed us last week can outscore us. If we cand do that this England team can look forward to a few successful years (hopefully)

Croatia v Spain on Tuesday...
Spain 1.4....after tonight that is a gift

thats why gordon was subbed now on bbc 2 singing YOUNG AT HEART with THE BLUEBELLS

England were very good, Croatia abysmal. You can never read anything into victories like this. England have been great at trouncing poor teams in qualifiers since the Hodgson days and this is below that level. Big team in KO matches at the 2 majors is the only barometer for how good England are and the last one was even worse than Croatia or Italy in terms of capitulation and I think even Tuchel was surprised at that.

It's easy to be very good against an abysmal side.

Croatia were poor on the night but are not a poor side.  Should've beaten a very fortunate Portugal in the WC only four games ago.  Never been out of League A in the NL and their WR of 13 was probably about right, although after that performance you'd be thinking it will drop

England were outstanding on the night but it's only 1 game.  XG was over 6 and all the goals came from open play.

Spain are 10/11 with Denise to score 3 or more against Croatia on Tuesday...that's regardless of the final score/result...
Unless Croatia have a miraculous turnaround in 3 days, I think this is a great bet and have availed myself of it
Only the basic match markets up on the exchange atm, I will watch with interest when that same market comes up on BF

Great team when the pressure is off. Bit like Ars*nal in that regard.

But not Spurs

Why bring Spurs into this? Goes without saying that Spurs are rubbish both under pressure and without pressure.

They were a bit spursy against Argentina last
15 minutes or so.

Pipe down with the Spursy talk. You're a Newcastle supporter.

Played one season in the CL in the last two decades and have spent more time in the lower leagues than the PL in those two decades. Newcastley doesn't really roll off the tongue though.

Ooh, doesn't like spursy.

Spursy Spursy Spursy.

nice end to golf eason backed A MERONK at 125, and 110, ew to pocket £290 and even better new as i was at THE RIVERSIDE and wasnt following wasnt tempted at cash out/lay offs

JULIO ARCA might make the bench for BORO on sat,still got it

Nice one.

Arca not much older than ronaldo

yeh could till get around the pitch, i tell you who couldnt get around the pitch but didnt matter as he couldnt when playing,but is till a real maverick with all the skills is LEE TOMLIN

Reg, just noticed this, was that a typo or do you have more than one!

Wrighty looking like a cross between Norman Wisdom and Frank Spencer.

The Scots play their own anthem so do the Welsh. Why do we play the durge that is 'God save the King'?

We should adopt Elgar's 'Land Of Hope And Glory'. Far more uplifting!

evening all

I feel the same with the Northern Ireland anthem.

England seem to a bit slow tonight, N Ireland ran out of steam last night albeit we have a very small pool of players. 4 games in 11 days is great in one way gets most of it done, however feel it has had an effect on most teams.

Republic of Ireland U21 3 - 1 England U21

Nice OG,

That was terrible, more difficult to score than just leave it

This could be 7 again

They were 1-0, is that full time.     Czech defender had a decent finish there.

Thats 1 of my 2 bets, had a couple of pounds Trent anytime goalscorer and had a biggish bet over 1.5 pre-match was only 1.12 so hardly worth getting moist for it.

Croatia showing they are no mugs at home to Spain

Just gonna say about that, Clydebank
Doing my conkers on that game at the moment
Not watching it...how are Spain not cruising it after Croatia efforts against England?

Good luck Reg hopefully they will turn it on in the 2nd half.

Stu^^^^12.38 post...just the one, that's enough

As for Wrighty on the box tonight...is he on Allo Allo later?

Alien, not watching it, but can't see them scoring 3 second half if nothing 1st half

I know stats are not everything,  however Croats had more shots. Reckon Spain will turn it round, just 3 goals might be tight.

Michelle Dubois aka Wrighty : Listen very carefully, I shall say this only once.

Renee : Well, in that case, could you please speak slowly?

I thought wright was wearing a syrup when I first glanced him, lol.

Must have landed some bets wearing that.

I was a bit to young for the Series Secret Army, in fact never saw the series until 2 years ago, apparently in comedic Way Allo Allo was based on it....loosely.

SCOTLAND 1-1

How can Spain be losing to a team thumped 7-0 a few days ago?

Allo Allo is fantastic, imo
Not PC...brilliant
Taking the mickey out of the krouts ,French and ourselves
And just ridiculous storylines but well written

Spain just got an EDWARD WOODWARD if there is no VAR

Reg someone out there will offence even if they are nothing to do with ENG/GER/FRA.

yes Alien ....the  Albino game a shocker

started at 1.08 to the Albanians

Poor San Marino

gutting

Just followed it on B365 Saw was a penalty, looked like they missed as it did not show a goal ball was in midfield and suddenly showed 2-1

says iots still playing 93' penalty

full time

sterling effort from the Marino boys

Damn they lost. Fair play to them. They lost reverse fixture at home 3-0 so unlucky away from home.

Take care all until Messi time.

i was intrigued how they got into group C  in the first place       thought i  was seeing things .

calling abba  ....goals forecast in the Argentina game
