[VMS]

Well done England. first two goals were gifts,but the better team won :emoticon-0167-beer:

Both teams should be applauded for dusting themselves down and getting on with it when heavy challenges went in. :emoticon-0137-clapping:

Scotland played better the second half, and when you look a nation of only 5 million take on a nation of 56 million the odds have to stack up against to be fare so the percentage was 20% for Scotland being able to pick a wining team, where as ENGLAND has a far greater percentage of about 80% to pick players that have came through football school coaching classes. and even going by hight Scotland still have only about 20% of big type players to pick from in the uk

when you have more of a choice you have more of a chance of winning like buying 80 lottery tickets to the scots buying 20.

who is the big mob fliers in your club tony, you seem to hold yer own most weeks

[Tony C]

I started of this year racing 22 old birds and 37 youngsters and yes held my own against those sending twice as many old birds and half as many again in young birds. I guess if I were a defeatist I wouldn't send.

Talking of odds, New Zealand seem to do well in rugby with a population of under 5 million

I heard the welsh are able to turn out a decent rugby team as well. Their football team has had periods of being quite handy also.

[Guest bigda]

Scotland used to be good at rugby, and football at one time
