Too bad Wales. Not alright on the night. Well played Ireland.

We played a team of Irish lads tonight in our 6 a side league. Obviously they weren't feeling confident. Should have stayed in though, we walloped them 5 - 2.

Presumably you had Callum McGregor in your team? Strachan, take note.

He'd struggle to get into our side. Although, he might have been a good impact sub, we put 11 past the same team earlier in the season.

Looks like only one team from the Scotland group going to qualify now, Slovakia are going to be the worst placed second placed team by the look of it and will miss out on the play off.
Now that is glorious failure.

Glad we got the disappointment in early. Chapeau WGS!

Just bought some kit for my six year-old.

I wasn't able to get to the clubhouse in time for the ordering so asked the parents of my son's friend to order the same as they were gettting and i would transfer the money.

Got a text - "That'll be £150."

For that he gets a training top and pants, a rain jacket, and gloves. The strip comes for free, i'm told.

Money is ruining football.

6 year old. That's way too much. Will grow out of it in a few months...but I will say, your the responsible adult who will pay this much...its football after all.

That does sound a lot @Stephenite, though does your boy's team have sponsorship of any kind?

 

[Stephenite]

Yes, he'll grow out of the kit soon enough. My first thoughts were not to bother with the team kit yet. But when i heard his best friend in the football club was getting kit i thought we had better too. Just wasnt expecting that much. Anyway, it's done now.

A few months ago he was really into wrestling!

There is a least one local firm sponsoring. Most of the money comes from the parents though, i believe. They are looking for parents to help out with the training. But i have no time. And i'm crap at football.

Strachan and McGhee have departed with immediate effect
