Fingers crossed for a home final if we get there and avoiding Italy!

 

[JackFish]

Well that’s a bad start! We’re in Italy’s section.

 

[JackFish]

Semi final at home to Bosnia.

 

[twoeyedjack]

good chance at home to Bosnia will need a home draw in the final or Italy will be tough

 

[twoeyedjack]

Italy or Northern Ireland if we beat Bosnia

Well that’s a bad start! We’re in Italy’s section.

If we have to play them away we’re total toast. Home, yeah, probably toast.

 

[twoeyedjack]

Home draw for final

 

[JackFish]

Final will be at home. So as Monny says probably toast but better than being definitely toast in an away game!

You never know maybe NI and Galbraith will do us a favour!

If we get past Bosnia then it would be Italy away or NI home?

I thought the pot 1 team always gets home advantage?

We're home for final they did extra draw

We have a puncher’s chance now. We were unlucky with the pot 1.

Home draw for final

Ah, it gives us a fighting chance asking as we can get past Bosnia first.

Italy are absolutely shitting themselves that they’re going to miss a third consecutive World Cup.
Obviously we have to beat Bosnia first but if we do we need to unsettle Italy from the first minute to the last.
Maybe NI can do a North Macedonia and beat them in Italy?

 

[Swanjaxs]

Italy are no great shakes anymore, let's get past Bosnia first though aye.

I think we'll beat Bosnia but even with a fully fit side I give us no more than a 10-15% chance of beating Italy, even taking into account it is in Cardiff. They are packed with Champions League players and if they don't qualify they'll go a minimum 16 years without appearing in a WC, that simply cannot happen. They'll be really fired up.

I hope I'm wrong, but I just don't see it happening for us unfortunately. Stinking draw, worst possible.
