All time Wales, Scotland & Ireland vs England

Who would win

Started when I said to someone English Big Nev was better than Shilton

I think England would edge it, but would be close.

Banks was better than both of them.

There wasn't much between Nev and Shilton. But I reckon Shilton was better.

Re: All time Wales, Scotland & Ireland vs England

It could depend who the manager was. If England chose Graham Taylor Carlton Palmer may get a game.

It would be close. Any team with Dalglish Charles Keane Giggs Bale Hansen Allchurch Rush Hughes Best is going to be pretty formidable.

No way Nev gets out jumped by a drug addled hobbit in 86 nor leaves the ball go over his head when it deflects off Paul Parkers arse in 90.

Cost Ingerlund two world cups did Shilts.

I always thought he was the best of all the goalkeepers, he always seemed to make any save look simple.

Shilton was a world class keeper at his best.

He was about 40 wasn't he in 90.

Nev made mistakes for us.

Re: All time Wales, Scotland & Ireland vs England

David Marshall would be the keeper anyway.

I was acting a knob about Shilton as his bitterness towards Maradona to this day amuses me greatly.

I think it's close between the two but would go for Big Nev not withstanding his obvious howler v Romania was widely regarded as the best UK goalkeeper from 83 to at least 1990.

Re: All time Wales, Scotland & Ireland vs England

If it went to pens with Shilton in goals we surely would have won.

Shilton saved one or two penalties in all his career (including shootouts) and conceded nearly 100.

I’d go for Pat Jennings over both of them.

That's a great shout and I'd completely forgot about Jennings.

How I've managed that is shameful.
