Not just you. I look at the squad and wonder who half of them are.

I won't be watching either game.
I hate these International breaks which break up club football.
It was so much better years ago when the squads met up on Sundays and returned to their clubs on the Thursday so the weekend football was unaffected.

My biggest concern now is that none of our players get injured while they are away.

Usually there is at least one England home game at Wembley I can look forward to going to

This time its 2 aways and both on Sky (I watched via a dodgy stream)

Rubbish

Even my local non league team (Dorking Wdrs) are miles away at Folkestone!

Oh well the house is a bit tidier!

Although my England away travelling days are pretty much over now,I see that there was a programme issued for the behind closed doors game in Croatia

It gets a mention on the BBC sports article

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/45841128

Football memorabilia is big business online - and this programme will certainly be a collectors' item.

The Croatian FA pressed ahead with publishing a guide to the match, well aware there would be no fans around the ground to actually buy it.


The always brilliant service (and it really is a service to England collectors) at www.footballprogrammes.com has some for sale -

"This match was behind closed doors as part of a UEFA punishment imposed on Croatia. A very limited number of programmes were published for 150 Croatian and English FA guests plus members of the press only."

Even if it never increases in value, I just had to have one!!!

Dave Allen was on the hill behind the goal along with a few other familiar faces. I collect England tickets so will be on the look out for any press or VIP tickets/passes..

Good effort. I got in to the Turkey game in 2003 when we were banned, even though a Turkish policeman tried to turn me away some locals said I was with them and they would look after me!

It was mentioned on the BBC that there were boxes of unsold programmes lying around

Not for me we haven't. I find it fascinating to hear about the rarer programmes and stories behind them. It is a football programme forum after all.
