Congratulations to Connahs Quay Nomads who beat Edinburgh City 5-4 on penalties last night to reach the Scottish Challenge Cup Final. Two excellent stops by Bradford's former keeper John Danby in the penalty shoot won the day. There the Nomads will meet Ross County from Dingwall, the most northerly team in the Scottish League.
Be fair, the league publishes their results in binary. 3- 0 away is no disgrace.Highland League
Keith 11 ... Fort William 0
That's on Sky over here. Next week (according to their letter to me) the KNVB are selling tickets for the NL - NI game in October @ Rotterdam, the hotel's already booked, just need to bag a brace of tickets. There;s a Feijenoord supporter's bar near the hotel - spotted looking at Google Streetview. Looks a decent place to have a beer before the game!Tomorrow the Netherlands in Amsterdam against Germany.
2 - 0 now to SCO; positive golden uplands.Scotland and SAN Marino looking very evenly matched!
Yeah it is a bit harsh, it is more like a town than a country. Would be interested to see them play Fort William.2 - 0 now to SCO; positive golden uplands.
I do have issues with everyone (due to FIFA rankings) calling San Marino the "worst (international) team in the world". Now there are lies and statistics. Statistially, yes, but they never get to play against teams that they would hammer - such as Turks & Caicos islands, American Samoa, Montserrat, Bolton Wanderers, British Virgin islands. So unless we have an actual mini world cup, which the majority of those teams couldn't afford to take part in; we should take the bottom of the rankings with a large dose of salt.

Yep. Ok Montenegro aren’t much of a test, but we’ve struggled against teams like this (almost any team actually) over the last decade or so.England have gone for 5 again! I don’t recall an England team in my lifetime that put out good performance after good performance.
England have scored 5 or more goals in consecutive matches for the first time since November 1984.

I feel more positive about England right now than I have for years.
A Wembley ticket, for Wolves FA Cup Semi-Final v Watford a week Sunday all secured at 9:03! Going to be an epic day!
As a matter of interest (okay, I'm being nosy!!), how much did it cost you, please?
Thanks … I hope that you have a good day.
I was at Wembley on a tour a couple of weeks ago, and it's a very impressive stadium.
Same question!
There’s literally hundreds of tickets on ticket reseller websites going in the Watford end at effectively face value, and from the club they are on general sale to any Watford fan with a supporter number. And each supporter can buy up to 9 tickets.
What do you have to do to get a supporter number? Just register, or are they limiting the sale of these to people who've bought a ticket before? They might find themselves getting a lot of new supporters with WV postcodes.
Wolves tickets sold out yesterday, plenty of full members didn’t get one.
Darlo 0 v Chester 1 - Sigh. Crap. next.
My mate at work got one for Wolves. Cost him an absolute fortune!

Watford will not sell out. Season ticket holders being offered 2 tickets each!!Same question!

Meanwhile for Wolves, the few tickets left are one ticket per member only, and then only with a certain number of loyalty points (season ticket holders got theirs over the weekend). It’s unlikely they will be on sale to registered supporters who are not members. Meanwhile the cheapest on stubhub are £400 each...
I know it is to ensure fairness between the clubs that they each get the same number of tickets. But there’s a lot of Wolves fans who will be missing out, and a lot of ’plastic’ Watford fans on the day. I should imagine the ‘neutral’ sections of the ground will have a distinct yam yam feel to them.
Man City sth offered 3 tickets each!!!
Scottish Challenge Cup Final
Connah's Quay Nomads 1 ... Ross County 3
They're on general sale, anyone can buy three tickets.
Presumably their fans don't get excited about semi-finals, or trips to Wembley these days.
Add to that that it may be a rush to get home by train, then some fans might just say it is easier to watch the match on the telly. To some City fans the game is their least important of their remaining fixtures.Third trip this year. I'm going next week, for some fans it's simply too much outlay over the season.
