Italy play Scotland in a crucial Euro 2008 qualifier at Hampden Park on Saturday, 17 November with kick-off at 1700 GMT - for the record, Italy
have won four of their 11 matches played on the 17th of a month in the last
30 years.

I've also heard rumours that Scotland will play with 17 men !!!

I reckon you're gonna lose 17 - 0

Nah....Im Scottish for the next couple of hours but when Italy only need a draw, Italy usually get a draw. Scotland might get desperate near the end and caught on the break.

Oh....after im Scottish...Im Israili and then Im a Macedonian.

the pasta munchin '''##@@s though we more than deserved a draw, the best team over 2 legs went through, they are the world champions, so to get close to them for long spells in the game was awesome. We will qualify for the next World Cup, up to 13th in the world rankins we should get a decent group
