An early goal could've just opened the floodgates even more tbh. Switzerland have been very wasteful. As long as it's 0-0 NI will always have a chance.

harlands plater 16,988 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Norm Iron are keeping it on the deck more than they did at Windsor, playing some tidy football without a cutting edge. Can’t fault yer men for effort. Switzerland will have to decide whether to try and kill it off or just shut up shop. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baseball Ground was the ultimate. can you imagine that nowadays in the pro game? there would be uproar. I remember laying in seedhill in paisley and the park looked great - then we stepped on it and sunk about 4 inches. Both teams still wanted to play it though - and it ended up a good game given the circumstances - but fucking hell it was just a mudbath.
