Jype 6,398 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 KTF you sound like Scotland Scumpool or the GoonersHard to be optimistic about our chances when we have never qualified for a major international tournament before and there certainly has been easier groups in the past. At the moment our aim is to qualify for Euro2016 when 24 nations qualify instead of only 16. Hopefully we'll finish third after Spain and France to increase our chances in the 2016 draw!

Jusek 2,031 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Finland v France in a few hours. I think it's safe to say we got screwed in the draw with Spain and France both in our group. Oh well, there's always the next qualifying campaign. And then the one after that...lol c'mon Finland!!! I'm just blindly optimistic.

LukakutoStamford 779 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 good luck ....its tough when you seeded lowCertainly but a lot of it is luck. Drawing Spain and France when both are traditionally pot 1 teams is unfortunate. There are many groups where the pot 1 team is beatable if not vulnerable. France is certainly no guarantee but had the Fins landed in just about any other group their chances would be a bit better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

France is certainly no guarantee but had the Fins landed in just about any other group their chances would be a bit better.Yes, the draw is pretty much down to luck. It makes one hell of a difference if teams like Norway and Slovenia are drawn to your group from pots 1 and 2 instead of Spain and France which were no doubt the hardest from both pots. The title holder of two previous Euros as well as the WC and an underachieving giant who are better than most teams seeded in the Pot 1. Belarus and Georgia are both beatable even to Finland, but third is the best we can possibly do from this group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
