Steve McClaren's England will play a friendly against Euro 2008 co-hosts Austria in Vienna on 16 November.

 

The game has been arranged as part of the build-up to England's final Euro 2008 qualifier against Croatia.

 

England met Austria twice in qualifying for the last World Cup - a 2-2 draw in Austria and a 1-0 win at Old Trafford.

 

Coach McClaren said: "It's an exciting opportunity to play against good opposition ahead of what will be a tough qualification game."

The way the games have been for the last year... I think if we somehow manage to qualify, we'd be better off not playing any games at all until the first game of e2008. Couldnt be any worse. At least players might show renewed hunger finally playing for England again.

They are getting to the point where all International football will need to be played post season in the summertime. There is just too much going against it to play during the league season.

 

Players not giving their all.

Managers not being helpful.

Supporters not getting behind the team.

 

People see Internationals now simply as a detraction to the domestic game, it's a dying game.
