Joe67 239 Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Seen this,thought it might interest a few members..Its said to be a friendly,it will be alittle more than that.Should be good though,worth a wee trip down south http://www.bbc.co.uk...otball/18476089 Football Association announce 2013 England-Scotland friendly England will play Scotland at Wembley in a friendly to mark the Football Association's 150th anniversary. The 'Auld Enemy' will play on Wednesday, 14 August 2013, their first meeting since Scotland won a Euro 2000 second leg play-off 1-0. The game is the oldest in international football, dating back to a match in Partick in November 1872. England manager Roy Hodgson said: "It will be a huge honour to lead our nation out against our oldest rivals." England and Scotland are international football's oldest opponents. They met in the first official match ever played, a 0-0 draw outside of Glasgow in front of a crowd of 4,000. A total of 110 meetings have taken place, and Hodgson is enthusiastic about the 111th: "England versus Scotland is one of the finest fixtures in international football and I know what this game means to both sets of supporters. "It will be a fitting part of The FA's 150th anniversary celebrations and the supporters, the team and my coaching staff all look forward to welcoming Scotland to Wembley Stadium next year." Scotland boss Craig Levein is similarly keen: "For any Scotland supporter, player or coach, Scotland versus England is the ultimate contest: it really is as good as it gets. "It will also be the best test possible before we resume our World Cup qualifying campaign next year." The FA also announced intentions to schedule further high-profile fixtures to mark the anniversary. They have also revealed a friendly against Italy to be played in Berne, Switzerland, on Wednesday, 15 August, England's first match after Euro 2012. The last time England took on the Azzurri was in 2002, losing 2-1 at Elland Road to a Vincenzo Montella brace. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
