Thinking the same thing. Berbatov had two opportunities to shoot but instead decides to play it out wide in slow motion.

Think we can look back to the home game against Bulgaria where we should have built on our 1-0 lead. Italy would be only 2 points ahead of us provided they win instead of 4.

We could even end up playing against Germany. As it stands they are only 1 point ahead of Russia and still have to play them away.

Disappointing from Bulgaria, was hoping for the big decider in October, and at 1-0 and Petrov getting his range there was still a chance. No hope now, for a team who needed a win they looked like garbage

Play-Offs - Croker in use for Australia rugby on 15th? So, would be Ok for Saturday, or not?

Miller misses another chance for the jocks

**eaststand85** · 09/09/2009, 7:59 PM

Did George Hamilton just say an attendance of 20,000 at the game? They should be ashamed of themselves, if there's any justice (unlikely I know) the Bulgarians will jammy a couple of goals from somewhere.

Lets hope that Cyprus can get a winner against Montenegro, for obvious reasons

Bulgarians making a fist of it anyway

Apart from Berbatov unusually enough!

Hamilton on Berbatov "All the engagement..... of a man out on a.... beach lounger for the afternoon"

Reminds me of Alan Partridge's footy commentary

Oh Wales just got an equaliser against Russia. Looks more likely they will take second now. Even if Germany lose in Russia they w(sh)ould have the same points and their goal difference is +6 better.
