That’s worked out rather well

[bulmer1889]

If you say so benny personally I'd have rather played Japan,I think we will struggle to break Colombia down we don't fare well against South American sides (who are decent (I put that bit in before someone mentions panama)) as a rule

No need Bully, as Panama are NOT a South American side.
I too, would have preferred Japan. Contemplating an easier quarter final draw is a bit presumptive when we haven’t even played the last 16 round yet. I don’t really want to compare England with you know who, but it does appear to me to be somewhat arrogant!

ah well - at least it didn't matter - cos we weren't really trying - were we?

My lad said the same but it did matter to me. I hate losing!
If we had played well I would have taken the defeat better but it does show we have some ordinary reserves and a dodgy keeper

Meh to the prediction.

Well done Harry M,the rest of em were meh meh,so much for Southgates wanting a winning mentality.

Colombia will dissembowel England,the centre half Yerry Mina will score again and Cuadrado will run Young into the ground.

So wot's thi score prediction Agnes?Just so i can congratulate thi if it's correct.Hazza looked our best player i thought,i agree wi Gary Neville Pickford looks dodgy the way he alluss parries shots back into the danger area.Why was the young scouser allowed to tek most of the free kicks when he couldn't deliver a letter on time,unlike our Bully Meldrew,who needs to go on a Geography course.I think Young will keep his place cos Rose was at fault along wi Pickford for their goal,even tho Januzzi's effort was a gud un.

Oh eck! That’s put the kybosh on it.

Big problem is we don't have a big enough pool to choose from. Prem is just a cash cow for 2nd rate money grabbing foreign players and ego tripping foreign oligarchs who would do better spending money in their own impoverished countries. Someday we'll get to a position where the football authorities see sense and limit the number of foreign players who can play in a game.
Rant over.
