    That's probably it, but if you take monkeyface out of Wales then Scotland are better (thanks to Anya <cool>).

    The 2 Direlands are beyond hope :frown:

    I hate those type of games. No intensity, only one team trying to create anything and the overall experience has about as much excitement as being at a dinner party with Nick Clegg. It amazes me that people spend decent money on tickets for these non events.

    The 'Home Nations' only includes UK teams, so you need to remove the rebel republic from the list.

    That's irrelevant to this debate. The question wasn't who has the best team taking population into account<laugh>

    My problem was you decided to have a pop at us, for doing badly at world cups. When the others haven't qualified for one since 2002 <laugh>

    Hardly flawed they play ****e football. Win against minnows and can't kick a ball against anyone else. False hope for the fans. At least Wales and Scotland know there ****e and accept it. They play more attacking too which appeals to me.
