Even then, they got to play them at home. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 (edited) It's not even just the easy run, Harry Kane joining a team that wins everything and managing to win nothing also has a Hibs and Scottish Cup inevitably about it.

oldbitterandgrumpy Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 1 hour ago, virginton said: What was the actual recorded time difference between penalty 1 and penalty 2 of the shoot-out, and why was that c**t's c**t Pickford not booked for wasting time accordingly? Those antics in no way excuse the abject penalty strike by the Nazi gold smuggler, but is another example on top of Bellingham's 'celebration' (v Demiral's) that rules simply are not being applied consistently or equally in this competition. 1 hour ago, virginton said: Just as well they've got Brazil 1970 in the semi final, to stop them spawning their way to a tournament victory over a 90 minute final then. Oh wait it's another second rate outfit, who will in all likelihood lose a few players to injuries/suspensions before that game anyway. It is the depth of England's squad that makes their path to the final ludicrous. 32 minutes ago, virginton said: In a completely irrelevant friendly match. But aye you just hold on to that comfort blanket as they parade from one spawny result to another in an actual major tournament. 12 minutes ago, virginton said: It was also an absolutely terrible Germany team, that stank the Nations League out so badly they had to change the format to stop them getting relegated to a diddy tier. Anger management. Go on. Give it a try. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chripper Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 (edited) This England team is like Manchester United under Ole. They rely on great organisation. Team spirit and individual moments of brilliance. I have to say, though, very much like when Ole was in charge, that type of football can only take you so far. Generally, the England fans don't deserve Gareth Southgate. 3 semi finals is insane. He could win Euro 24, World Cup 26 then go and cure cancer and he would still be generally hated by England fans. As a Scotland fan, I want him to leave ASAP.

It's untrue, rather than insane. He's currently on one in a row. They exited the last tournament at the quarter final stage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chripper Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 (edited) Also, gotta say that it puts our result with the Swiss into perspective. We were within the width of a post and a Ralston mistake from all three points. Edited July 6 by Chripper 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forameus Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 They've gone further in tournaments while looking like they might actually win games, but they've been largely awful at this tournament. The semi-final is shaping up to be which side can just be slightly less shit than the other, and it wouldn't surprise me if England do just that, and let the media talk about how they're clicking at the right time. The final has the potential to be interesting (something has to be this tournament). You'd imagine Spain should be there, and if they've gotten past France, you'd imagine they'd be licking their lips to go at England in a final. But France just seem to have the knack of doing the absolute bare minimum and going through. from then, they could either play like it's a World Cup final and pump whoever is in front of them like they did with Croatia (and threatened to do against Argentina) or play like it's a Euros final, and just not turn up. If they fucking win this... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
