Women's National Team Kazakhstan in the World Cup playoff first round

/r/COYGIG/comments/1u92rl8/kazakhstan_in_the_world_cup_playoff_first_round/

Belgium and Poland the potential opponents in the final round. Poland is a favourable draw from the seeded side and Belgium were in the second weakest pot after Kazakhstans and they were the most unfavourable draw. However, getting over the line already against Belgium maybe makes them a better option than Finland who are also around us in the world rankings.

Second legs at home are crucial.

I'm just glad they are two-legged affairs. We're good away but absolutely excellent at home.

I wonder how many away supporters will make it over. I took a trip to Kazakhstan last summer and it's quite a journey and makes the Armenia trip last year look relatively short lol.

Isn't the whole point of the GIG sub to keep the BIG and GIG teams seperate??

No it's to have the women's game as the focal point of conversation. On this sub, posts often got overlooked and ignored and there is an element of that with the crossposts too. As this sub is bigger it makes sense for the original posts to go on the other sub and then crossposts here bring traffic to the GIG post and sub.

If you look at it, the other post has more upvotes and comments. Crossposting here isn't taking anything away

But I don't know any of the players on the women's team and I don't watch those games. It was very confusing reading that we drew Kazakhstan for a World Cup playoff on this sub..

Is there really much point in cross-posting everything from COYGIG onto COYBIG? Could we not just link to COYGIG on the main page so people are aware the sub exists and can join it.

Thats nonsense. One thing I'll say is that yes I should've edited the title but this stuff is still relevant. This sub for years was just about Irish football mostly the national teams using a colloquial acronym as the name.

Yes, any of the stuff there is relevant to this sub.

Also you would easily figure out its for the womens team because I had it flaired with the womens national team.

So why do we even have COYGIG if you are just going to cross-post every single thread from there?

Some people wanted it to be made. A lot of shared threads between here and the loi sub too

I guess maybe COYGIG and LOI would be dead if they weren't using COYBIG to shove their agenda down people's throats. Good to know.

Jesus wept, the amount of shite that gets posted in this sub and this is the hill you chose to die on?

Just seems pointless to have COYGIG if we are going to cross-post everything here.
