Yes...
Yes...
I think that TBA team is Costa Rica who we (or maybe it's our neighbours to the north) are playing on June 7 at Foxboro. Funny story:
http://www.ticotimes.net/2014/03/13/...-the-world-cupQuote:
The Costa Rican Football Federal (Fedefut) has some geography issues. The organization clarified today that Costa Rica’s final match before the World Cup will be against Ireland — and not against Northern Ireland as the association announced Tuesday (although Fedefut’s Facebook page still hasn’t addressed the bewilderment). The national team will play Ireland just southwest of Boston on June 7....
An official for Fedefut simply told Al Día, “for some reason, there was confusion” about the opponent.
In addition to the Northern Ireland match, Costa Rica will play one more June friendly. La Sele takes on Japan on June 2 in a yet-to-be-determined city in Florida. Costa Rica’s national team will train in Denver for a few weeks, beginning on May 20.
Ireland will clash with Costa Rica at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Massachusetts. The site was chosen partially due to the large Irish population in the region. The stadium, home to the NFL’s New England Patriots, seats almost 70,000 and should make for a hostile visit for the Ticos. Federfut was searching for an opponent like one of the Irelands, since officials believe the Irish teams would better prepare Costa Rica for Group D rival England.
See, the FAI are not so bad after all...
You'll be hard pushed to get across to Wembley for the fight though won't you. Full Time not until 21:30 and then exit and walk to tube........get across town etc...not sure what time the main fight will be but I presume 10'ish??Quote:

I suppose that's one way to prepare for the World cup
Well the joke was like oh they are all the same, the way they mixed up the north and the republic as though PR and CR are the same thing. Technically as BS says though its not part of the US it is however an unincorporated territory of the United States, but also they have no relationship, whereas Northern Ireland and the Republic have. If you had said like Nicaragua then i would have thought it was a good joke.Quote:

Fair point Stutts! I just over analyse certain things like this on technicalities when someone its trying to make an intelligent joke.
Btw if you like your geography download quizup, its a great game and challenge friends!
Yep, I've played it. Good fun.
30 mins is too little time. If you left 5 mins before full time and made it to Putney Bridge, you could be at West Brompton at 21:40, if you got a good connection on the overground you would be at Wembley Central around 22:05, but you have a good 10 min walk after that (depending on where you are sitting in the stadium). You would do well to get there in an hour.Quote:

I like to think of myself as being quite mathematical, but game theory always got the better of me. Devilishly hard to get on top of, at least with my mental capabilities.
Marty in today's star talking about another friendly just before the Georgia game
Is there an international date in the calendar before then? The August friendly has been scrapped, and rightly so.
