Experimental. Not expecting much of a spectacle. But that's all right

I thought all friendlies and World Cup/Euros qualifiers were on ITV with Sky only having the Nations League?
Has all that changed?

The fact Sky broadcast the national fixtures of any sport is an absolute disgrace.

Walker-Peters seems to have come from nowhere
Obviously he won't be in the World Cup squad when everyone's available, but even if you look at the odds to make the squad a few weeks ago, he was behind the 4 regulars (Walker, TAA, James, Trippier), as well as Lamptey, Justin and Livramento.
And there are other exciting options emerging like Spence, on loan at Forest too.

I was checking to see if Matty Cash had been included and to my horror I realised he plays for Poland!🤦🏻♂️

Absolutely fucking ridiculous that the National team is playing and the game isn't available on terrestrial TV.

We need to inspire the kids of tomorrow from all walks of life, and not just the privileged few whose parents can afford Sky. People underestimate the power that live sport has on kids.

I imagine it is in almost every other country in the world Probably is, but in this country showing any form English national pride is anathema. You're literally Hitler incarnate if you're English and dare to display anything that can be classed as patriotic.

You're literally Hitler incarnate if you're English and dare to display anything that can be classed as patriotic. What a load of rubbish. I can never remember a time other than major sporting events, where the general British public show high levels of national pride. From my experience, people just don’t care. It’s just not built into the structure of the country. The vast majority of the country can barely sing the chorus of the National Anthem, never mind any other section. Children don’t recite it at school, it’s not played locally before any non National team sporting event etc. There isn’t a huge emphasis on the current role of Britain in world politics taught at school either. If people cared enough about building national pride into the country, politicians would push bills to make some of these things happen. But people don’t really care, they just like to say “oh, I would do those things, but the country won’t let me”.

I dare bet if it was the womens side it would be accessible, as it should, and so therefore the blokes should get broadcast for free too.

You're literally Hitler incarnate if you're English and dare to display anything that can be classed as patriotic. These days, he said, if you say you’re English you’ll be arrested and thrown in jail. I said really, if you say you’re English these days you’ll get arrested and thrown in jail. He said yes really, these days he said, if you say you’re English you’ll get arrested and thrown in jail. I said really, these days, if you say you’re English...

How about if people want to sing the National Anthem they can, and if they don't want to, they don't. All this bullshit that somehow others stop you from doing it is just paranoia and conspiracy theory nonsense. There are some poor alternatives out there....Would anyone really like to live in a country where you get arrested and beaten up behind closed doors if you don't stand up for the National Anthem? Yes it really happens in some countries. Some people might like that I suppose.

Do you know the vast majority of the country and their personal recitals of the anthem? I don't think a made up quote adds to the argument. Who has ever been outcast for showing National pride? All in your mind
