Probably the one their on now.
Is it the campaign where they won away in Sweden? Was that Italia '90?
The year they decided not to bother
If we win tomorrow,I would think this is the best we have ever had,here,s hoping.
i think it was italy 1990 where we only lost two games,we aslo beat the french in that group to 2-0 at hampden but they beat us 3-0 in france but 1-1 with norway made sure we qualifyed,we didnt lose any of our first 5 games in that group which included yugoslavia,norway,france,cypru.
it was the qualifying for italia 90.. 5 game's before we drew..cant see us breaking that record this time
p.s dont ya just love all these nigel's coming on here posting there uneducated comments they should learn more about there own bunch of nigel's before they start slating us dont they know we have a better qualifying record than they do
