Didn't even know this match was happening til yesterday
The Irish will take it a lot more seriously than us and will probably win 1-0.
this for me.
Not like there is Premier League or Champions League football to watch.
Surely England vs Ireland is much better than nothing?
I bet you lot are shitting bricks.
The press over here are trying to make a big deal out of it. A lot of my mates are falling for the 'it's not a friendly when you play England' but it is. I'll watch it as there's nothing else on the telly box. But I think people are a little be sick of football now. We had the climax of the end of season games, cup finals and play-offs. This is an anti-climax. Plus international football isn't the same as it use to be. The club game is the be all and end all now.
We are. 12 page pull out in the Star this morning. People calling it a massive game. TBH, I couldn't care. If we beat England, we only beat them in a end of season friendly. Means nowt.
In saying that the average person hasn't got a clue about the match tonight over here.

Why the?
Will you be throwing seats and singing 'The Fields of Athenry'?
Obviously not i know
More or less universal apathy at the though of a 'home'-ish international even if its a friendly.
Speaks volumes to me about how the mighty £/$ has reduced the game to the club football, corporate sponsorship nowt else matters level. Sky and it football overload is to blame.
Looks like we'll never again see Wembley's goal posts being tore down or trains full of marauding pissheids emptying out at Queens St/Kings Cross/Cardiff Central. Or Larne ferry port full of windmilling ne'er do wells.
For £55 a ticket, I'll be looking to bring the seat home with me.![]()

What do you mean "pretending"?
Despite being just a teenager, I was in the England end in 95'. Its still by far the worst trouble/atmosphere I've ever experienced at a football match. Thank fuck things have moved on
Tonight's match means nowt, hence the lack of interest.
