Steve Steve Steve!!
Come on you honestly don't think England would have it all one sided in an Annual 5 nations.
Look at Rugby England don't do that well every year!!
Englands past form also is alot to be desirde at the Irsh teams do quite well.
And would England Honestly be able to muster a 1-1 draw with Croatia after playing Finland!!!
I'd be worried about Greece first mate.
I think true enough England would do well but I'd doubt they'd walk it!!!
: I don't think a five nations tournament would do England any good whatsoever. Fair enough, for the minor nations it gives them something to look forward to every year - the chance to try and beat England - but for England it's a waste of time. If we beat them all, so what! When Man utd or Arsenal have a bad run in the premiership no one suggests that they start playing against non-league teams to sort their problems out!
: : Surely a coach who can spell "tactics" would be a better start, Keegan probaly would ask for parmesan on top if asked about catenaccio

: : : I am writing to tell you that we should have a five nation football compititionbecause our international sides are doing poorley in the European championships and world cups we should hold a compition like this every Year or two the teams should consist of England N. Ireland Republic.Ireland Whales and Scotland and if we hold a copitition like this our international sides might fair better in the European Chapionships and the World cups .
