    Correct me if I'm wrong but theoretically he has a release clause so if we actually fork up the cash (big ask I know) sporting don't have a say....hence the release clause

    Can't imagine us paying it regardless

    Yeold - The draw for UEFA play-offs will be held at 12:00 noon on Tuesday 17 October

    Seeding will be based on the FIFA rankings which I think will be updated on Saturday, if they stay the same as now then Switzerland (7), Italy (17), Croatia (18) and Northern Ireland (20) will be in Pot 1 with Sweden (23), Denmark (26), Ireland (34) and Greece (47) in Pot 2 so it is possible we could have Northern Ireland v Ireland.

    USA lost 2-1 to Trinidad & Tobago, they don't deserve to go to the World Cup.

    Australia will play Honduras, New Zealand will play Peru

    I watched the Ireland game we some Irish guys (we've now best friends, Guinness makes friends..)

    They were looking forward to an all Ireland contest but wouldn't be a game for the purists I think.

    I have no idea how you qualify for anything based on this

    Someone told me it was to replace friendlies, not qualifiers, but I'm just really confused now.

    The qualifiers still take place, with the top 2 from the 10 groups going through.

    Each of the four groups in the Cocamamie Cup will have play-offs among the group winners (or next best team not already qualified for Euros in the normal way), and each group (A-D) will have one place in the Euro finals.

    Its basically a second chance for smaller teams.

    So essentially it means England can finally be relegated

    Just about the best Ireland and N Ireland could hope for in the play-off draw.

    N Ire v Switzerland

    Denmark v RoI
