Hey JamesMcLean really sorry to hear about your old man. My thoughts are with you mate.

And as for England. I honestly thought they were destined to do it. All the fancied teams just seemed to be tumbling out of the competition plus England seemed to be having an easy ride into the semis.
This happens in cup competitions when teams carry unusually good luck to see them through. This is something we Arabs are not used to. Anyway thankfully Croatia turned up and made sure we as a country are no longer subjected to the media pish and the god awful coming home song.
I can now enjoy a cup final without the nightmare of an English win.
