A bit quiet on the international board this time round innit?

A quick recap of results:

England cruised to the expected comfortable win at home to San Marino, the match finishing 5-0 to the hosts.

Wales were held at home in a scoreless draw against Bosnia & Herzigovina. With any luck that'll help stuff Gareth 'cheating bastard' Bale's chances of qualification.

And today's fixtures:

Northern Ireland and Eire, like England, are at home to the 'whipping boys' of their groups - Faroe Island and Gibraltar respectively. Gibraltar are still a fairly unknown quantity as this is their first time in qualifying, while the Faroes have taken plenty of surprise points in the past, so both matches are potential banana skins.

For Scotland every match is a banana skin, and after our unlucky defeat in Germany expectations have been raised for our game at home to Georgia. However, we've struggled against this opposition in the past, though mainly in the away games, and they'll be tough opposition. I expect to see 2 or 3 goals scored but they could go either way basically.

as expected ROI won well while Scotland had to struggle to hold out v Georgia, but get the points thanks to an own goal. 1-0 Scotland/ won the home game and put the points on the board.
