When we missed out on Euro '84 we toured South America and John Barnes scored 'that' goal against Brazil. We might do something like that again this summer. No doubt with a fringe squad, couldnt really blame anyone on that. I'd rather we had a good long rest over the summer, England-wise for the players involved in the squad but you know the FA are plotting something to make some money as we speak
| probably, and it'll probably be Asia or the US again.

I know Eng are reluctant and I think they are right.
R Irish , N Irish, Scot, Wales and Eng all play similar styles and ethos and most of the players play in the EPL.
| I think you are wrong. Wales don't play with any style.

Something I would watch and therefore a good idea
Dont really care if England are in it or not, they will either gloat or moan anyway.

Substitute Wales for England and it'd be a cracking tournament (albeit less Celtic).

Great, plenty of opportunity for Gerrard and Crouch to pick up injuries.

We're going to end up playing pointless friendlies anyway (e.g. against France on the 26th March next year) in the international breaks, so might as well swap them for something interesting like this.

Amazing, Gordon Brown is in favour of it even though his beloved England aren't as yet due to take part.
