I guess it would be possible for all of the home nations to be drawn together for the WC2010 draw - that'd be ace.

It's actually in Stockholm, at Råsunda. Which may, or may not, be a good thing. Because Sweden have a very good home record under Lagerbäck (5 qualifying losses in 47 games, two of those at home), and there's some stat like how we've lost one game of the last 17 or so competitive games at Råsunda.

Well, the common denominator between those two stats? Latvia won 1-0 at Råsunda in 2003.

Though I wouldn't place too much weight on that really. It's true that the Swedish team suffers from some key injuries and suspensions, but I really can't see that happening again. The last time it happened we were already qualified and had nothing to play for. And while N.I have shown this campaign to never count them out, their wins against the big teams have come at home. The way Spain played yesterday they'd destroy most teams, and certainly N.I.

I could see one of these two things happening, however unlikely they are, but both??! I seriously doubt it.

Healy is fb for Norn Iron - of that there is no doubt.

However, put him in any other shirt and he goes walkies. After a good start to his Fulham career he has been found out, and has barely been seen since - pretty much like his Leeds career.

I like Healy. Shame he never did it for us.

why is healy so good for his country and so mediocre at club level?
