Anyone going :lolol:

Our first game back at Wembley after last nights shambles, a real crowd puller Malta in a qualifier to a tournament in Russia where the majority of us don't want it played
Depending who the FA appoint as new manager could see this being the lowest attendance for an England qualifier at Wembley

We will win the qualifiers, then freeze and bottle it on the big stage. Standard.

We still get massive crowds even for the minnows. The OLD Wembley used to see some pitiful crowds for qualifiers, around 25,000-35,000 rattling around. There's no way our crowds will dip to that level, even with this miserable bunch of wastrels.

They'll get a big crowd because of all the good-time-charlies who want to go along for a night out. They'll sell more fizzy drinks and sweeties than beer. Same as FA cup games at the amex.

There rumours we may boycott and start our own EFTA tournament on an annual basis with Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Little England. I'd say we'd have a reasonable chance

I will guess that this Malta game will see no more than 25k.... 5k of those London based Maltese.

Do behave. We got 83,000 for LITHUANIA not long after stinking the last World Cup out.

Malta has more footballers than Iceland! (They're pretty useless though)

A few years ago in Malta I came across something called The Malta Football Yearbook. Was gobsmacked that it was about the size of a housebrick and weighed in at something like 1200 pages. Then I read the flash on the front cover: 'Includes Gozo' :lol:

England fans are loyal folk, and will want to see the first home game of the new managers brave new era.

Will probably try and get to the Scotland game on 11th November

Bloody hell. We have to play Scotland now?

It's hugely embarrassing seeing England lose to a small, rocky, windswept north Atlantic outpost with a long history of being abysmal at football and a limited collection of professional players low on talent but high on enthusiasm. Honestly: we'd better get three points in that one.

Will probably still see 70-80k there. All paying between £40-80 for a ticket and about £100 a head overall for the day.

Because of that the FA will think everything is rosy and not worry too much about anything else
