this is the england players arriving at the their hotel in central london last night, ahead of their first meeting with scotland at a major tournament for a quarter of a century. it is, famously, the oldest rivalry in international football, but manager gareth southgate, who played in that match 25 years ago, says he won't be building up that rivalry. when we were growing up, erm, the home internationals were one of the few games you saw live at the end of the season, and england/scotland every year was a massive occasion. now it's played less regularly. 0bviously lots of the players are friends within their clubs. we know the rivalry. but i think, yeah, i certainly haven't felt the need to build that up with the players. i want them to approach it like any other game of football, and focus on playing well. scotland know the match is huge for their chances of progressing at the tournament. they were beaten in their first game, and defeat would leave them in a perilous position in group d.

to this tournament. everything is again scotland in a way. but sometimes that is the way we like it, you know? no one is expecting anything other than the tartan army. england know another win tonight will cement their spot in the last 16. gareth southgate more than understands the significance but wants his team to play the game, not the occasion. when we were growing up, the home internationals were one of the few games you saw live at the end of the season. and england scotland every year was a massive occasion. now it's played less regularly, obviously, lots of the players are friends within their clubs. we know the rivalry. but i think, i certainly haven't felt the need to build that up with the players. i want them to approach it like any other game of football and focus on playing well. a win for scotland tonight would breathe life into their quest. wales have all but booked their place in the next round. which home nation willjoin them?

I'm really enjoying your articles, John. My first game at Goodison wasn't until 1974 as a 9-year-old so it's really interesting reading about football in a broad sense in earlier years from someone who was there at the time, especially from the lower leagues as they are never really reported on from those days. Chester in particular. Always had a soft spot for them as mum came from there.

"Nothing Really Daunted Us"

“Nothing Really Daunted Us”
Real Footballers' Wives – Carole Dobson
Catholic nuns ruled Paddock House Convent Grammar in Accrington with a rod of iron and although my parents were absolutely thrilled that I passed my 11 plus and won a place, I have mixed memories of my time there. My brothers all went to St Theodore's High in Burnley but my sister, Linda, followed in my footsteps. It was a good school, the sort of education parents were grateful for and it prepared you well for life, but it was awfully strict and I was ready to leave when I did. I finished at 16 then went on to college, where I studied Art & Design.
