England v Wales
International ‘Friendly’
Wembley Stadium
Thursday 10th October 2020
8pm Kick off.
ITV / S4C
 V 
This international friendly takes place at home of football, which is Wembley Stadium. We know it’s the home of football because that’s what everyone says. West Ham won the World Cup there in 1066 when King Harold or something fired an arrow which hit the bar and scored a goal. That was hundreds of years ago but Frank Skinner likes to sing about it, sadly the years of hurt are getting lots longer, now they have run out of numbers.
England is a big country with a population of nearly 57 million, most of these people live in Sussex or near to the M1. Some live in Thetford, and others have been sighted in Lowestoft. Overall that’s a lot of people. Wales has a population of 3.2 million and some time ago a lot of them were English, but they left when they couldn’t take the embarrassment of such a small country beating them at every sport known to the human race, it’s true, Wales have beaten England at every sport there is, which for a small country is very good. English people don’t like this as they like to beat smaller countries like Iceland and Northern Ireland, when they lose these games they call it embarrassing and everyone laughs.
This is a picture of England yesterday
Other things England is famous for are red telephone boxes, London Taxis, the queen, elephants and castles and windmills, or is it canals ? Either way England is very well known throughout the world.
This is an English knight from the olden days, back then, and it was loads of years ago all knights wore sunglasses as you can see from this old drawing. They did so because they went on crusades to hot places, nowadays they are called holidays
England has a song about chariots that swing low and once a year they all gather together and wave flags at the Royal Albert Hall in London where Millwall play. Some of these people are from Scotland and three of them last year came from Wales. Probably Cardiff.
The most famous England song is quite difficult to remember, it goes like this.
‘Ingurland,Ingurland,Ingurland, Ingurland,Ingurland,Ingurland,Ingurland,Ingurland,Ingurland, Ingurland,Ingurland,Ingurland, Ingurland,Ingurland,Ingurland, Ingurland,Ingurland,Ingurland, Ingurland,Ingurland,Ingurland, Ingurland,Ingurland,Ingurland,INGURLAND.
It’s quite hard to remember as you can see it’s got loads of words in it, the trick is to try and remember all of them in the order above and then sing them.
Our final England fact is that they entered the European running championships in Marseille, France in 2016. Some, if not most of the English competitors got drunk so they had to be encouraged to run very fast by friendly Russian athletes who helped them along. It all went swimmingly after that. In fact some English people at this event actually did go swimming, oddly though none of them were from Cardiff.
Here we see England competitors at the running away Championships in France in 2016.After a while they got quite used to running with their Russian friends and did it a lot
Well, that’s it for now, the Matchday thread will be updated later with Welsh history and facts. We will start with the leisure industry initially.

 love it, really hope we beat these, but my head says it's maybe a game too far with key players missing. |  | | |

I think they'll struggle with Keifer. |  | | |

You could be right, he certainly is a handful and I wish we had signed him. The likes of Ayew, Lowe, Morgan and Crimes playing off him these players would have scored plenty. | | | |

Bit worried by the prospect of no Ramsey, Bale or Allen. I fear the worst here, and we never get to play them often enough too. Ugh. We looked slack against Finland. | | | |

Pointless match with no fans. Just send the kids out and keep players fresh for the nations league games. | | | |

Jasper.Agree 100%.Just another opportunity for injuries.
This is meaningless garbage as a fixture. | |

Spot on.
Three international matches in 6 days is madness. There will be much focus on the irrelevant one because it’s Wales against England. The Nation’s League matches against Ireland and Bulgaria are much more important. |  |

Wales without Bale, Ramsey and Allen should mean England winning by at least 3 or 4. |  |

Apparently we have to play a friendly for UEFA's match blocking with the playoffs, and it's the game with the least amount of travel fuss for everyone. It's a dotting i's and crossing t's exercise. | | | |

Not a match i would have taken.
I guess it limits travel in a global pandemic.
Its not a useful measure for Wales these days.
Still gutted the old Home Internationals end.
I think the 4:1 win at Wrexham made them run away from it.
Not sure England have improved until very recently.

Yes Cabango, Woodburn and Johnson should get a runout with Ampadu as captain. Ward definately needs a game. |  |

Talking of which, it's a pleasure watching Spain vs Portugal.
We (Swans) played a lot like Spain are playing tonight, sublime, fluid stuff.
And so uplifting to see the crowds back in the stadium. | | | |

Ronaldo playing for Portugal but his Juventus teammate Ramsey not able to play for us tonight?? Odd that ??
That said, Giggs would probably have saved him for Nations League games anyway, and given others an opportunity as suggested. | | | |
