Although all that probably means is we get to lose on penalties instead

England are definity the best team ever

Post by **richschnauzer** » Sun Jun 30, 2024 6:47 pm

whats wrong with Declan Rice?

Post by **dng** » Sun Jun 30, 2024 8:35 pm

Spain have been pretty great tonight/all tournament

Post by **dng** » Mon Jul 01, 2024 4:52 pm

The first half of this France Belgium game has been utter piss

Post by **dng** » Mon Jul 01, 2024 5:56 pm

Own Goal's definitely the best player at this euros.

Post by **dng** » Tue Jul 02, 2024 9:01 pm

The Turkish goalie made pretty much the best save ever right at the end of that game just then.

Post by **dng** » Tue Jul 02, 2024 9:01 pm

Which was nice

Damn, I fell asleep on the sofa before the end. Was one of the good games, though! I was looking forward to seeing Austria after missing their group games, but Turkey were great

Germany seem to have decided to just boot Spain off the pitch here

Post by **dng** » Fri Jul 05, 2024 6:39 pm

The music they’re playing in the stadium to celebrate Germany going out is kind of incredible

Post by **dng** » Fri Jul 05, 2024 6:39 pm

Poor germany

That should've been the final, really.

Post by **dng** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 11:05 am

france portugal should have been the relegation play off in which both the winner and the loser were banished to the hell dimensions for ever

Post by **Pual** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 12:39 pm

The punishment is that they have to play Southgate’s England every day

Post by **blombluss** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 1:31 pm

At the next World Cup, Ronaldo will lead the Portuguese attack with the aid of a jet pack.

Post by **blombluss** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 1:39 pm

England will beat Switz The Land this afternoon. We'll play better than we have done, they will have a slight off-day, and we'll nick it.

IT IS WRITTEN IN THE STARS!!!

Post by **dng** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 2:01 pm

Shaqiri will score from the half way line or something and all the England players will burst into tears and go home

Post by **vom** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 4:34 pm

How is Shaqiri only 32? He made his debut during the Georgian era

i hope we'll still be asking the same question in 2032

Post by **dng** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 4:45 pm

Even the ref got bored by that half

Post by **dng** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 5:23 pm

England have been complete shite this half

Post by **dng** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 5:24 pm

After being almost not complete shite in the first half

Post by **dng** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 5:31 pm

That was useless from just about everyone

Post by **dng** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 5:36 pm

And that was kind of lovely

Post by **dng** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 6:08 pm

why’s foden so rubbish

Post by **vom** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 6:23 pm

I don't understand it. When England were 1-0 down and it was briefly important, they were excellent

Then as soon as the scores are level again it just went back to unimaginable tedium

Post by **vom** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 6:24 pm

Why not simply try to win the match at some point?

Post by **dng** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 6:25 pm

Because we’re unstoppable on penalties

Lovely Trent. Bringing a player on who’s presumably never taken any penalties before is a bit mad really. Although not as mad as when Sven brought jamie carragher on to take one

Post by **vom** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 6:55 pm

Those were some impressive penalties. And I'm against it

Post by **dng** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 9:03 pm

The last twenty minutes or so of the Holland Turkey match were wild. Should have been about ten goals (but were only 2)

Post by **vom** » Sat Jul 06, 2024 9:27 pm

Yeah! Great match. They should kick England out and just do that match again as a semifinal

Post by **blombluss** » Sun Jul 07, 2024 2:15 am

The most energetic Kane was during the match was when he was lying in the England dugout, being hugged by lovely Gareth.

Just looked at the copa america results. and one of the four best teams in south america is.... canada

Post by **dng** » Sun Jul 07, 2024 10:35 am

officially better than brazil now

Post by **blombluss** » Sun Jul 07, 2024 1:05 pm

The Brazil Uruguay game was a match of great beauty.

Post by **blombluss** » Sun Jul 07, 2024 1:10 pm

If planet Earth is attacked by aliens, then humanity must lure them onto a football pitch with Uruguay.

Imagine if your one shot at blowing up the Death Star fell to Darwin Nunez

Post by **blombluss** » Mon Jul 08, 2024 2:12 am

Excellent and definitely quote-on-a-tee shirt worthy!

Post by **dng** » Wed Jul 10, 2024 5:22 pm

England are going to be shit tonight we all know it
