Nadine Dorries to give interview with unctious, sycophantic fawning of BawJaws and Brexit being responsible for England's women winning the Euros.

That really was the best part of the men's team losing last year. The desperate anticipation from the Brexit crew was palpable.

I'd love for us to have their attitude. we've got games lost months before we've kicked a baw. being humble has done us f**k all good

Until Sunday, our approach had won us the same number of competitions since 1966.

which would you rather honestly though? they're annoying because they're our rivals.  would you rather we kept stinking the place out with our total losers mentality? 

we never achieve anything as a country because we don't fucking believe we can

R Kelly believed he could fly. He couldn't, but turned out to be a massive paedo. 

Ergo holding unsupportable beliefs is for sex offenders.

ok, you win, we should keep being a laughing stock who actually made an utterly embarrassing and  nauseating song called " don't come home too soon" our world cup anthem, just in case we stray to close to being sex offenders

meanwhile the english will be at the world cup singing oh i'd rather be a paedo than a jock

I'm sure "belief" is the deciding factor and not any of the usual things like "ability" or "tactics". We just don't want it enough.

That is a gem of deductive reasoning. 30 seconds laughing out loud. 
 

thank you

I couldn't give less of a shit about England's women winning the Euros.

I'm sure it would be different if I still lived down South and the press was doing their usual jingoistic triumphalism, but thankfully I've heard/seen nothing about it here, other than on the BBC's front page, so it's about a relevant as when they win a cricket match.

I did notice some quotes about how hosting the tournament will cause a massive increase in participation. I'd imagine that'll go the same way as the much-trumpeted revolution in athletic participation after the 2012 Olympics.

As soon as they get knocked out of the next tournament then few men will give a toss.

Stepping back and looking at it from a higher level, the second most populous nation in Europe winning the European tournament for their most popular sport shouldn't really be seen as anything all that special.   I can get the "at f***ing last!" celebration part, but the "incredible / unbelievable achievement!" part doing the media rounds is ridiculously OTT.

If anything, it just highlights how sh*te the men's team has been that outperforming them by one Euros is perceived as being 'incredible'.
