Can we get back on topic please? If we win the losers game on Saturday do we all get Sunday off

errrr, no Cam, no we don't....is anyone actually interested i that game, including the players of both teams?

I think it's a folly and pointless personally.

[rolymiller]

Yes Camiller. 2-1 to England! And no you bloody well can't.

i think that this game counts towards England's FIFA ranking, seeding in future competitions , etc, so...

Balls to the rankings, it's pointless.

[rolymiller]

Well we need to be down the rankings so we have some decent quality teams to play. Put us in with the Germanys/ Spains/ Portugals etc. Lets have some real competition not flippin' Latvia and Outer Mongolia.

Ok talk me through it. You are a self-made man by the sound of things. I assume you had no parental support both monetary and otherwise to achieve your goals. How were you educated? How did you getcontacts?

Yes, started with nothing....council house, comprehensive school, typical start really. Parental support in terms of a roof and food on the table, but not a great deal of money kicking around. Nobody in the family had any business experience or useful contacts....in fact I didn't know anyone who did anything other than manual shift work apart from a local grocery shopkeeper and a bloke who had a tailors shop.

So any success I had wasn't/isn't down to family money, contacts, education or having any kind of a leg up. Hard work? Not really, more a case of looking for opportunities, trying stuff out, failing quite a bit and then keeping going until something clicked.

For my kids it's been different. They've worked much harder than I ever did, but also benefitted from a stronger base than I had. I know that's what you object to, but I make no apology for it. You do the best for your kids, as my parents did for me. You work with what you've got and from where you are. A massive part of having a degree of success for me, is being able to provide a platform for future generations to build from. Now you might argue that that should be future generations of everyone's kids - and without boring you, I've done my fair share in that regard - but I think it's only natural that it begins at home.

Isn't that what we all do Lasterman? i don't think roly is objecting to you looking out for your kids is he?
