[QUOTE="ecks tartan army, post: 142832"] ok, only 5 games left for most teams in the Euro 2008 Qualifying Campaign - and with 3 home nations still in with a serious chance of qualifying who do you think will be going to Austria/Switzerland next summer? Ive lost track of Englands group - could someone update me on what englands chances are? as for Scotland, have done fantasticaly well in such a tough group and will be second going into wedensdays clash with france in paris. Ukraine play home to Italy the same day - and a home win or a draw would mean Scotland are still 2nd watever happens in the Parc des Princes. We then have a double header in October against Ukraine at Hampden, before travelling to Georgia - both winable games that would keep Scotland ahead of the Ukraine, and as Italy sit out 1 of these would put us 4/5 point ahead going into our final game. so all going well Scotland will have an all-or-nothing clash with the World Champions at Hampden, win or draw and were through, loose and we must hope Italy loose at home to the Faroes. Northern Ireland have done fantastically well to this stage - especially in beating Spain at Winsdor Park, but have they got enough steam to make it to the finals? they also suffered a real setback last night in Latvia - could this cost them a place at footballs second biggest meeting? And finally Wales - BBC say they are out, but could they find some miraculous form and scrape into next summers biggest party? but whatever happens, we have already seen some great upsets - both good and bad! who would have thought Scotland would overcome France that October night? (except the 50,000 fans that packed Hampden, we knew we were on the verge of something special) Who would have thought England would make heavy weather of an easy group? and perhaps most of all, who would have though Sanchez's men would beat Spains superstars? and does anyone know what odds you would have got on scotland having the most points out of the home nations at this stage? ;) [/QUOTE]
