football is for stupid people.

you knows it B]

poland are the best...

im glad u have finally come to ur senses m8 ;-)

when the ira said they were going to pursue other means, i didn't think it would be like this

i dont find that funny.

you wouldn't, 1-0

1966 ;-)

wow this overrated country has won something.. ONCE!

why are people still proud of this? if we had the history of germany or brazil i could understand it.

Why are people still proud of winning the world cup? I don't know.... beats me ....

winning the world cup 39 years ago!

thirty

nine

years.

long time.

Yeah I agree, speak to any England supporter and they should all tell you they're not proud of the achievement ;)

It's one thing being proud of once winning the world cup before you were born but living in a 1966 timecapsule expecting to win everything seems to be the standard MO of England fans ;p Imagine the greeks, in 39 years going on as much about their Euro Championships 2004 win. That said there's only one team I consistently believe in and it's Brazil. Both France and England won their world cups in their home countries. Brazil have won all of theirs in different countries. A lot of english supporters I talk to believe it's their God given right to win the next major cup and when something goes wrong heads will roll and hate will flow. Hell, just look at your newspapers making images of "someone" in a noose to sell. That's a step over the line but it's not like I've ever thought anything good of English Press anyway.

BRAZIL : 5
GERMANY : 3
ITALY : 3
URUGUAY : 2
ARGENTINE : 2
FRANCE : 1
ENGLAND : 1

well, RSA > NZ - world cup 1995. Yeah I know it's not football (rugby btw) but I was there ffs, and that's all that counts.

You mean proud of 11 guys you don't know and most of whom are most likely dead who happened to win a football game one day? Yeah I can't imagine why that wouldn't impress someone...

I can tell you're not a football fan.

many gold medals at olympics
rugby world cup
ashes (about to)

the thing to remember is that we are a small nation, very small yet we perform up there with the best of them regulary.

theres not much left to be proud of in this country, so we hold on to what we once had.

overrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrated

the r's are for REALLY

Well fucking leave the country......

yes that makes sense. i do hope you know you sound like a bush voter.

that's how stupid you sound.

agree but noone cares about cricket :(

You've got a lot of people in your country compared to other european countries.

Not forgetting two world wars <thanks america>.

thanks russia*

Rock IV turned me against Russia TBH :)

but if you can change, and i can change
we all can change!

dont think its actualy a joke. unless ur middle aged, live alone and have a love for trans.

and you can deduce someones life from a comment thanks to your ignorance.

opps hit a nerve ;)

Comical

The pub was buzzing

buzzing

rediculous formation

beckham was not good, hes better on the right where he belongs
gerrard and lampard were terrible, the formation did not suit them at all
rooney was wasted

4-5-1 is a joke with the players that we have, beckham was playing like he was a 1/4 back behind his defensive line (gerrard / lampard) trying to ping passes all over the place.

Robinson
A Cole, J Carragher, R Ferdinand, L Young
J Cole, S Gerrard (c), F Lampard, S Wright-Philips
W Rooney, E Heskey

subs: D Beckham, A Johnson, P Neville, D Vassel, C Kirkland

(replace Rio with J Terry and Young with Gary Nev when they're fit)

would be my team

as much as i hate to say it, we could do with heskey on the form hes in.
fucking donkey :/

Heskey is perfect for england right now because:

A) He can actually hold the ball up well
B) He's taller than a mushroom
C) He's in fantastic form

I hate the way he gets slated even when he's playing well, his whole problem stems from a lack of confidence and still people won't get off his back. It's stupid.

it stems from him being one of the biggest strikers in premiership but yet hes easily taken off the ball.

its great that hes now found form, i hope that sven gives him another chance!

I've been a leicester fan my whole life and spoken to Emile before, he is one of the most shy blokes I've ever met. And the problem with his confidence is a problem in itself. So what if he has the ability to be a good footballer, confidence counts for a helluva lot. And that is something he's lacking, so what's your point?

that's pretty much the only thing he's lacking is my point

Yes the english team is a bit pathetic atm. They only pulled a 0:0 against Austria. I mean we lost against Faroer Islands, lol..

lmao @ european footy

+ finland m8

america > eu @ football (apart from poland)
