    Strangely not devastated though, like it was inevitable.

    Didn’t go out in comical fashion to a bunch of part timers. Which was nice.

    The draw was very favourable though, I doubt we’ll ever get such a stroke of good fortune like that.

    And worse is that we lost to a team with Lovren in it (sob).

    Right about the draw, but it is nice to be positive about the national team again.

    These guys are young, they'll be improving, young players should be coming through, I do expect that this is the start of something. I think that in 10 years' time, we might be one of the big teams that people fear.

    Trying not to focus on this but it's true.  We almost rode Troy's bucket all the way to the treasure.
  • So I haven’t really followed English football for years. I am a rugby fan through and through and always looked down on English football as a bit of a joke.

    That has now changed. This team has been a pleasure to follow and support. They have made me excited about English football and it has been a pleasure watching how they have conducted themselves this tournament.

    As my little four year old boy said as he went to bed. Football isn’t coming home today. But it will do tomorrow (although he means in four years time).

  • At least it’s put an end to all that ‘it’s coming home’ bollocks.

    Positives, Clive.
  • Unlucky lads. I was genuinely hoping England made the final as they seem like very nice boys.

    D'oh. As you were.

    :)

    When the first goal went in my daughter heard the shout and ran out of bed to sing it's coming home at me, which was awesome so LD can fuck off with his positives. 

    I'll have to break the news in the morning.
  • Proud of those boys. Undone by inexperience but duck it, outperformed my expectations like a morherfucker.

  • That game was utter rot in the second half. Southgate fucked it when plan A wasn’t working and England were getting ruined he went to his shit version plan A (ie the same plan but the B grade players). The same fucking plan in every game with no ability or desire to unpack the game in real time to affect or change the game.

    Every sub was like for like. When you’re being overrun in mid you don’t take off the defensive mid and add a defensive mid. What value is swapping sterling for what Southgate has implied as being the shit sterling from the B team game and giving the lad zero starts.

    They had three games where the wingers were ineffective in open play so they keep the same plan for the most important game.

    Awful.

    Yep, agree with crayon. Should have changed it to 451 early doors when they kept getting a spare man over on the left. Was only a matter of time before Perisic started getting more joy on the right.

    Sat back and invited pressure. It was working for a long old time like, but couldn't last. Fucking gutted. The ref totally abandoned reason and logic halfway through the second half too, no massive howlers but plenty of 70/30s went to the dirty ratty snide cunts who France are going to annihilate on Sunday.

    Shame there's no football on until then.

    Oh, for the kids, yeah. That sounds adorable.

    For the mid-30’s z-list celebs, less so.

    There were few alternatives imo. We had one system and a reasonable first eleven. The job for the next two years is building a squad and make them capable of adapting.
  • Anyway, I’m off to smash up a bus shelter and lamp a Croat pensioner.

    And after all, isn’t that what it’s all about?

    You're forgetting the third-place playoff. Seriously, what's the fucking point? Who is going to want to play in that game?

  • I'd play if they asked me.

  • Vardy would pay to play in it.
