England beaten twice by Andorra

Two defeats against Andorra make more dismal reading as yet again England fail to ‘lose that losing feeling.’  Will that first win ever come?  4-2 and 6-3 were not thrashings and as manager Graham Dell reports in his column, [url]http://www.thefa.com/England/Futsal/GraemeDell/Postings/dell_november06.htm[/url] many posatives came out of the game.

The views of many has been that you need to play futsal regularly in a competative enviroment to play futsal at the top level.  This is conceded by Graham Dell in his article.

Will the proposed FA National Futsal League be the answer?  Probably not in the short term, I would suggest 21 teams is spreading the jam to thinly at this point in futsal development.  What about 8 teams with 8 foreign coaches to coach the teams.  At times it looks that we are trying to reinvent the ‘futsal wheel’ rather than go straight to those that know and copy.

I am sure there are others with strong ideas as to how UK futsal can move forward at this critical stage.
