consecutive yellows in qualifying games

Oh dear she's been trying to get people to go to the england game I know at leeds and the league cup she was asking people if they were going.

I'll give you all a wave if I am on TV in my A Scott shirt

We'll be watching out for you

Thanks mate

I really hope they don't start aluko in front of Lianne again? Lianne is nearly at 40 goals this season Aluko has not reached double figure yet...

I bet they do start with her though

Maybe if she doesn't always get to start, it will motivate her to practice putting the ball in the net.

There's only gonna be one change Thursady night and that's for Smith. It's now between Aluko and Sanderson for that one spot. I'm praying she goes for Lianne , her goal record speaks for itself this season.

Sanderson to play definately! Please Hope, please Hope, please Hope see the sense!!

PLUS it's on BBC3 wooooo hoooo

Have things got so bad so bad now that it's time for begging JM

Please pick lianne I can't forsee it though

Same, honestly Aluko does not bring as much as Lianne in term of all around play so it's a mystery to me why she is chosen. Actually it's not its because she is faster. Or maybe Lianne does not defend enough

It has indeed! I'll be infront of the tv on my knees poking Hope in the eyes if I see Aluko in the starting XI

You'll be hoping she takes her specs off then

I think they will pick that team :

Chamberlain
Scott White Phillip Stoney
Asante Williams Scott
Carney Aluko Yankey

personally I would get this one

Chamberlain
Scott Stoney Phillip Unitt
Asante Scott
Williams
Carney Sanderson Yankey

Thiw ay you can use Lianne strentghin front instaed of relying on pace exclusively to get behind the opposition defense.

It'll be interesting to see how they cope without Chapman and Smith. One of em has always been there with Williams.

Team selected is close to shlj's choice, apart from White for Unitt, and Westwood for Jill Scott.

I'm sure we're all happy with Hope's choice to replace Lianne with Eni at HT
Johnno on for Philip too, although they mentioned a possible knock.

Pretty disapointing.

All credit to the Czech's though, they had a great game plan and England were pressured out of everything.

Felt sorry for Lianne, she didn't get her chance tonight but her time will come.

Why was she singled out though? Why not one of the players who wasn't getting the ball through to the striker(s)?

Yeah, I understand your point the midfield were finding it difficult although I don't think upfront many runs or great positions were being made hence why the ball was regularly passed back. On the other hand, I think the midfield found it hard to get their head up and see the pass because before they could do that the ball was gone!

I suppose Hope thought that as the Czech's got more tired Eni with fresh legs could run at them with her pace.

0-0 was fair in the end.

Yes - it was fair enough - neither team deserved to win.

I did not see the game, but england did not create enough basically?

They didn't create much at all - Faye White had a couple of chances from set pieces, and Alex Scott had a late chance, but that was about it.

They reckoned that Faye should have been given a pen after a shove, but it was the sort of thing that are sometimes given, sometimes not.

alex missed a sitter

Yes - had to hit it just right though

I went to the game and it wasn't that good to be honest not to mention really cold.

Apparantly kelly smith had to que up and buy a ticket like everyone else ! I saw her sat in the crowd not that far from me as was rachel brown

My photos didn't come out with the light

It was a really bad game. God knows why Lianne was replaced by Aluko , she did nowt at all. Lianne did more in 45 mins than Eni did 47mins , bad choice by Hope there.

They certainly missed Kelly , there was just no flare in the team , creativity. I just couldn't believe the time wasting that went on by the Czechs in the second half. Going down like they've been shot and stying down til they thought it was time to come off. There should of been more than 2 mins added on. All the Czechs did was defend which made it boring to watch.

The only highlight of the night was at half time when they showed the goals of the FA Cup semi's.

England need to sort themselves out , there beginning to play like the men
