One thing for sure is that the Russians

Nahhh, England have surpassed expectations so it's all good stuff from now on, regardless.

Not untrue - doesn't change the truth of what I said.

You know as well as many that the English press are only too willing to build up anybody or any group to just a high enough height to ensure it can all be knocked back down for a hard landing....So yeah, what you say has a fair morsel of truth to it if they don't progress.

I agree with that. I'm indifferent about it personally, I have found the English campaign (both in terms of team and fans) this summer very entertaining and surprising. If somebody wants to make fun of it, feel free. I'm impressed.

The thing with the English, in terms of football (for instance)...is, we expect but we don't believe what we're expecting.

And also, like you said, the press; the Danish press can be a circus sometimes, but man in England it's next level stuff! To the point where it should definitely be illegal.

nfortunately the English press seems to be a law unto itself. In fact,as a conspiracy theory I'd posture that it does write its own laws for the country.

It's a term attributed to the so called "prawn sandwich" brigade who although mostly ignorant, like to feel they have jumped up to middle class ot even upper class. Positions they would never be able to aspire to except in their own tiny minds.

On the whole very sad numpties.

Scouters and plastics also use it a lot

Sat in a pub currently and have heard the term it's coming home
And did you watch the footy yesterday
More than I heard did younwatch the football

Still plastics like some in here can call it wide screen

We would know what they are talking about
As we know the saddos
Don't venture out to far to support the team they allegedly support

Now that's a theory I can subscribe to!
