Taking at least two players that aren't fit. Par for the course!

Mind you Wales are taking a bloke with a broken leg!

Just did that selector thing on the BBC for England and Wales (Tried to do Northern Ireland but didn't have a clue who most of them were)

Went for:

Hart

Bertrand
Cahill
Smalling
Rose

Dier

Sterling
Wilshere

Delle Alli

Kane
Vardy

And

Hennessy

Davies
Williams
Chester
Gunther

King
Ramsey
Allen
Bale

Vokes
Robson-Kanu

Was toying with going five in the middle but don't know anymore of the Welsh midfielders

seems harsh on Townsend, but that may work out better for Newcastle's chances of keeping him, so I'm not unhappy about his omission.

I think we play Wales in the afternoon of a week day? Our company normally allow you a couple of hours to watch it, as long as you make the time up.

Thursday 16th at 2.00pm. I'll be pre-occupied that day anyway. That's the day my grandson is due to arrive.

Looks like the England team may have been inadvertently revealed by Ray Lewington! Either that or a clever ruse.

Fancy Carlton Palmer Smalling tantalising us all by walking around with strapping on, only to thoroughly disappoint us all by revealing that he's absolutely fine

t0sser! :angry

for a while there I thought my prayers had been answered

I will be tomorrow night. My boy wants to watch it, but I just know he'll be bored after 20 minutes and will want to watch something else.
