bungle Posted 2 December, 2008 Posted 2 December, 2008 Announced yesterday that the New England Patriots will play Tampa Bay in the NFL's now regular London game next season. Very excited about getting to see what really is the team of the decade, and hopefully with Brady back fit and firing on all cylinders. They've really gone and found another good match up, between two well disciplined teams. Will be a lot different to this years game, I think. Also hopefully it will ruin the pitch again.
Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 2 December, 2008 Posted 2 December, 2008 The only positive thing about this is that it is paying off a proportion of Wembley for the FA. Totally ruins the pitch, hopefull, there is a huge gap between this 'game' and the next England international

Totally ruins the pitch, hopefull, there is a huge gap between this 'game' and the next England international last WC qualifier is Oct 14th at Wembley.
bungle Posted 2 December, 2008 Author Posted 2 December, 2008 Hopefully it'll get postponed, then the NFL will ruin the pitch and England will lose to Christmas Island 4-0 in the re-arranged game, thus knocking them out of the WC.
Colinjb Posted 2 December, 2008 Posted 2 December, 2008 Hopefully it'll get postponed, then the NFL will ruin the pitch and England will lose to Christmas Island 4-0 in the re-arranged game, thus knocking them out of the WC. Didn't know that the Christmas Islands had joined UEFA.
bungle Posted 2 December, 2008 Author Posted 2 December, 2008 Didn't know that the Christmas Islands had joined UEFA. It is being arranged as a special play-off game specifically for my amusement at watching England lose and blame the pitch. lolz.
Chris Larkin Posted 2 December, 2008 Posted 2 December, 2008 Interesting. Two quite good teams, Brady will be a big draw, and Malcolm Glazer conveniently owns the Bucs. Were the Pats not supposed to be playing a preseason game against the Seahawks in China next year? That can't be going ahead anymore. Also, I'm sure I heard about plans to have two regular season games in Europe if the International Series is a success. Anyone know if that's still happening?

Looks like it is only going to be one next year. Apparently Murrayfield wanted the game, but it has gone to Wembley again, which is good as it is better transport links from all across the country.

Junction 9 Posted 3 December, 2008 Posted 3 December, 2008 I won't be going, Baseball goes on far too long for me.

bungle Posted 4 December, 2008 Author Posted 4 December, 2008 Murrayfield is not in this country. I think that you will find that our country is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and therefore Murrayfield is, indeed, in this country. Many thanks.

bungle Posted 4 December, 2008 Author Posted 4 December, 2008 you are wrong HTH This is interesting as I am sure you are/were a remember of the Royal Navy and I do wonder if perhaps you may have noticed some people from other parts of Britain in the same navy? Also, they should stop playing football at Wembley and make it a permanent NFL stadium. About time it saw some real sport.

About time it saw some real sport. the country I am in right now is England...scotland is a seperate country..so is wales as is northern ireland...those 4 countries happen to make up the sovereign state that is called (spookily) United Kingdom. WHICH is what is recognised politically around the world and will do so until (if ever) the beak up of said state.. again...HTH
