As I said, clueless.
Clueless about what? He chose to go, it’s his life, hardly suffering is he? Doubt he will look back on it with regrets.

I completely understand why Brown would want to go on international duty, it is an honour to represent your country.
However, as someone who doesn’t like these pointless friendlies at international level, it frustrates me when one of our players has been called up and not even played a single minute.
I’d be interested to see how many minutes the players that went on international duty actually played, and in meaningful games.
I thought they were putting the nations league in place to stop pointless friendlies but we have just had 2 right before the biggest stage of the season.
Exactly what I'm implying.
Some, though, think travelling about 4000 + air miles and going through about seven or eight airport terminals, preparing for games, and not playing a second is relaxing and having a good time with your mates. In my opinion resting somewhere near Oxford with your feet up is preferable.

Yes, but your opinion is worth less than nothing tbf.

I do tend to agree with you, I’m just grumpy he didn’t play any minutes and I’m also just not a fan of international football these days.But they are not really pointless are they? The players need to play and train together, can’t just turn up for qualifying and get the best out of them, the manager needs to see them in person and try stuff out.
International football would die if the players were not interested, but that doesn’t happen because they choose to go, no one is forcing them, they can just say they are not interested.
Training and playing with different players and managers can improve a player as well, especially a league one player, so it’s not as if we get nothing out of it at all.
Your opinion, fine. You aren't exactly the most enlightening or interesting conversationalist yourself. Not someone I'd want to be stuck having a pint with, put it that way!

Are you a boring middle aged man who dresses like they are on an episode of Saint and Greavsies 80s quiz show sporting triangles? If you have answered yes to all of that chances are you enjoy the worlds most dull sport Golf.

While I appreciate you trying to tell me what I think Baldy, I do agree with him that the player will benefit from training with other players, some better than what he will train with at club level.Well, you don't agree with him at all. Your view is the opposite.
*BREAKING NEWS* - It is ok to have your own opinion on this forum! Try it! Nothing to be frightened of!

It must be break time at school? Is that the best you can do?
Name them?Not a golfer myself but there are far duller sports in my opinion.
You're not worth making an effort for.
Name them?
