I wonder if it just ironic that all these teams playing the same day or it marks something historical (or something of that nature) ? And when is Trinbago next game?

It's the only FIFA sanctioned international friendly date before WC camp, everybody trying to prepare

don't see the irony......maybe conincidence but:

I think FIFA designates "friendly international" days now, and mandates that clubs release players for friendlies....March 1st is one of such designated days..........

someone correct me if they know different....but I believe that it's no coincidence....

[FF]

It ent no coincidence... it eh no irony

March 28th-Feb 1st is ah FIFA friendly date....

Today

Japan v Bosnia
Azerbai v Ukraine
Cyprus v Slovenia
Finland v Kazakhstan
Romania v Armenia
Greece v Belarus
Algeria v Burkina Faso
Iceland v Trinidad & Tobago

Tomorrow... what de man post before....

Its up to de FA's to decide what day dey playing on...

Most pick Wednesday because it allows time for travel back and forth between league games....

And when is Trinbago next game?
