Home Nations Cup?

[Arksided]

What was the format of the tournament ft. England, Scotland, Wales and N. Ireland. Was it a mini league for eg, or a knockout cup (drawn lots?)

[joeluke]

Mini league, playing each other once

If you played a country at home you would play them away the following year

Thanks Joeluke, I'm a little too young to remember it being played but with the suggestion of it coming back (each year it seems) thought I'd ask.

Thanks again.

It used to make an interesting end to the season

It also gave the English and Scots fans an excuse for a punch up!

Any excuse will do!!! mind you though the way England have been playing the Welsh might win it.
