Got given some tickets for this by a corporate bod...flying down on coach from bromsgrove.

Anyone else going??

Should beat these but they are getting a half decent side together

i will be attending......in the welsh end! Yes you should beat us but when you have players like bale ramsey and bellamy you never know!

Think it'll be a very tough game considering this is the only game in international football Wales actually care about (not belittling them either, its reflected by their attendances against everyone but England) still they are in awful form, so we really do have to be looking to win.

WBASPE77 · « **Reply #3 on:** March 18, 2011, 07:54:29 PM »

It should be a close game but I expect England to win.

Baggies · « **Reply #4 on:** March 18, 2011, 08:52:31 PM »

It's in Cardiff and we all remember what happened in Belfast a few years ago.

Wales have a good side but were still better on paper and id expect to win. After dropping points in the last qualifier, we probably need to win this one but a draw wont kill us.

wba1993dave · « **Reply #5 on:** March 18, 2011, 08:58:28 PM »

As a Welsh Baggie

i am hoping for a draw , we have some good young players but they need time to gel ,in a few years the future looks bright with the likes of Bale, ramsey , Myhill

, coming up the ranks, i feel sorry for Bale , i just hope he dosent end up like giggs and never gets the chance to perform in the world cup.

Prediction

Wales 1-2 England

Bellamy for wales and Terry and Wilshere for england

Pretty sure England will win, Wales will be up for it but the difference in class between the 2 sides is massive. "Derby" or no derby, it is unacceptable for England to lose this one.

He's been made permanent captain according to the news just, Capello with yet another farce of a decision. Its that kind of thing that has lead to me going from someone who used to go to Wembley for the home games to someone that doesn't even bother watching them on TV anymore.

Wales 4 - 0 England

Then that clown of a manager who I believe is actually asking to be sacked can be. His bizarre rants, statements and actions are truly baffling.

England are trudging along now blindly when we should be planning for the next World Cup. The side needs rebuilding and youth blooded in important games not sticking with the old guard who have constantly failed and bottle it in tournaments.

LiamTheBaggie · « **Reply #14 on:** March 20, 2011, 02:28:05 PM »

Have to agree with Kris about Capello asking for the sack, to drop the captaincy as a punishment for his actions only to reinstate him twelve months later is horrific and bizzare to say the least. Especially as he didn't ring Rio Ferdinand to tell him.

Wales 0 England 2

I was looking forward to this match. I usually despise the England team but against the home nations I will bring myself to support them. However, after the clown that is Fabio Capello re-instated Terry as captain I have gone back to despising them. I could never bring myself to support another national team though.

Jarvis is a good player , but i think a england call up is a bit strange , Jerome Thomas has scored the same amount of goals as jarvis and has the same assists, and has played less games, Jerome tore Sagna apart at the emirates , and caused Man United problems at home , Thomas is very similar to Lennon though maybe thats why he wont get picked.

Dan · « **Reply #22 on:** March 20, 2011, 09:23:29 PM »

I don't think Capello has actually seen us this season either. I've seen him at quiet a few wolves games in the highlights and what not, but never at an Albion game.

WBASPE77 · « **Reply #23 on:** March 20, 2011, 10:02:28 PM »

Here is the full England team, I thought Matt Jarvis has derserved a call up, he has done very well this season.

Goalkeepers: Ben Foster (Birmingham), Robert Green (West Ham), Joe Hart (Man City).

Defenders: Leighton Baines (Everton), Gary Cahill (Bolton), Ashley Cole (Chelsea), Michael Dawson (Tottenham), Phil Jagielka (Everton), Glen Johnson (Liverpool), Joleon Lescott (Man City), John Terry (Chelsea, capt), Kyle Walker (Aston Villa).

Midfielders: Gareth Barry (Man City), Stewart Downing (Aston Villa), Matt Jarvis (Wolves), Frank Lampard (Chelsea), Aaron Lennon (Tottenham), James Milner (Man City), Scott Parker (West Ham), Ashley Young (Aston Villa), Jack Wilshere (Arsenal).

Strikers: Darren Bent (Aston Villa), Andy Carroll (Liverpool), Peter Crouch (Tottenham), Jermain Defoe (Tottenham), Wayne Rooney (Man Utd).

Hart

Barry Wilshere

Lennon Carroll Rooney

That would be my side against Wales. No doubt Crapello will go boring and predictable 4-4-2 with someone like Milner on the left.

PortsmouthBaggie · « **Reply #27 on:** March 22, 2011, 11:29:55 AM »

I think Jarvis should get some part in the game. He's something different, the way he plays reminds me of a few players in La Liga. It's nice to have a player in the side that has performed with trickery and skill and a few goals that doesn't play for a top side.

Hart/Foster
Johnson Terry Dawson Cole

Barry Wilshere

Lennon Young

Lampard
Rooney

I think that would easily take apart a poor 1 man team. 4-0

Mister AT · « **Reply #28 on:** March 22, 2011, 12:28:11 PM »

I think Carroll and Rooney will start up top.

Lampard, Milner, Lennon and Wilshere in the middle.

Still to this day dont understand why Milner is so highly rated.

Poor decision I think, he should just be concentrating on getting fit again (which he didn't seem to be agains us really) and getting back to his best rather than throwing added pressure at him, particularly when there's people like James Collins who are surely far more suited to the job.

On another England related note, England under 21's beat Denmark under 21's 4-0 away from home, impressive result even if first half and early second wasn't that good. Sturridge seems a very good player though.

I disagree, he is young and has a lot to learn but I like him as a player. Definitely not worth £35m but I do think him and Rooney could be a very successful partnership for England

If he can sustain a place in the England side then there is hope for us all. He is painfully slow, the amount of times Wilshere slid balls through that he didn't anticipate was ridiculous, he never got close to winning a header all game, he must have a right foot like a pitching wedge cause everytime he touched the ball it went straight up his nose and yeah he scored but he nearly bloody missed from 6 yards.

Dont forget we are ranked 6th they are in the hundreds

The fact that England are ranked 6th tells you how useful those rankings are. If England are the 6th best footballing nation in the world then we are good enough to qualify for the Champions League.

World rankings get a lot of justified hate in all fairness. You look at the rankings and say who behind England is better? France maybe, but they shouldn't be ahead after struggling to qualify for the world cup, then doing awful in it, and currently having a worse qualifying record. Italy have also been comparable to England, but hardly better.

The rest are all worse than an England team who world cup aside have steamrollered their way through the past couple of years and are justifiably sixth. That we struggle against the teams ahead of us is a given but generally we're much better at beating the smaller teams than people give us credit for.

Take yesterday and that WBADEVON guy bizarrely wanting Capello out after the most comfortable 2-0 you will ever wish to see. People will moan about anything. Even if we did somehow win something the same clowns would be moaning we didn't score enough goals or the defence wasn't good enough. Its like the same people who criticise people for being overly negative about Albion then do the same about England.

World class side? No. Better than people give us credit for? Comfortably.

After the match went back to coach park too find our coach gone...we was 30 minutes early at 530 coach was leaving at 6...

Anyway the coach next to us was still there and it had an 0121 number so chanced a lift back..we got lucky and it just happened to be an Albion coach from Tipton...quality few faces id seen before on there from away games so had all good...anyway if any of you who were on there post on here then thanks again lads..saved us...

And in the normal seating in front of our box sat 4 lads 2 were albion and 1 wipe that snot and a dingle...nice enough lads but the dingle had no banter at all i was giving Hennesy some stick and he kept turning round with a face on..idiot
