    Would it not have been easier to just ask this question in your original thread?

    for ROI i reckon the best possible group would be

    Greece
    Bulgaria
    ROI
    Moldova
    Albania
    San Marinio

    IF we get one of the top 2 teams here then id say we should do well.
    doesnt work out like that tho!!!!!

    Sorry I thought it would be better having a seperate thread for the two teams. If the mods dont agree then they can merge.

    Yes, You are supposed to pick one team from each group. That will leave eight groups with six teams, and one group with five teams.

    Right you are, i get it now. Its going to be even tougher to qualify from than the euros with only one definite qualifer per group. :eek: I give us sweet fa chance of making it, and England only a marginally better chance.

    It is a legitimate question but this forum was busier on Wednesday night than it has been in years. I heard about 5 different people mention the England match yesterday on telly and radio.
