Huge game for them tonight, almost unthinkable that they could possibly not make it to next years WC. Reading some news that the whole of Italy is today gripped in a state of tension, iv'e got a soft spot for Italy, they haven't missed out on qualifying for the WC for something like 50 odd years. "Vieni in Italia a farlo voi bastardi"
My Father had a profound influence on me, he was a lunatic.
they will get a dodgy pen or a dodgy ref decision , you watch they will be throwing themselves all over the pitch tonight , the cheating fcukers if there is a God please let Sweden win
And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

Hope I'm wrong but I think Italy will struggle. They lacked any creativity in the first leg and currently need to score at least two goals to get through, you can expect Sweden to park the bus.
I prefer brunettes so it's Italy all the way for me.
Svenska! Supporting the Nordic neighbours.
Like others though, having seen the "surprising" handball decision for the Cuckoo boys last week, the standard of refereeing might be appear to be negotiable.....
It would be odd not to see Italy qualify, but in all honesty Italian international football has been dull to watch for at least the last 20 odd years. Very defensive, boring, but hard to break down. A bit like Ireland only with style. Yes, the Italians do everything in style don't they? Maybe tonight they might fail......in style.

2 fairly blatant handballs not given but then to be fair he could have given Italy a penalty for ther foul in the box before both handballs. Maybe he's just not very good at seeing the important moments.
Very poor Italian display so far. Nothing stylish about it.
Hard th fathom their not going to be there. Look at that team though and its well short of world class players, the likes of Pirlo, Baggio, Totti, Gattuso, all retired and there don't seem to be much coming through. To think we reckon England have problems.
