Engurrrrrlaaand!

well oh dear, seems out of the 20 people arrested during and after last nights game several were my mates.

they were ejected at halftime, arrested and spent a night in boro nick at our majestys pleasure.

u know sum ruffians then chris?

btw u kicking abou ton sat at any point - work or play? i'm down ur neck of the woods shopping with jo....

haha you could say that, they all have previous . they are my best mates though, just over-exciteable from time to time.

yeah i'm a 9-5 man now! started at a law firm in york so i have my weekends free. i'll be around somewhere, think i'm gannin to retro.

Chris was that u singing no surrender in the second half?

just happens that is one of their favourite songs.

one of my mates even has that as his phone logo!

generally when they've had a bit to drink they start chanting it in pubs & bars. they were all ejected from the ground about half time last night for breach of the peace and offensive chanting before being arrested outside.

it was one their 21st birthdays we were out for, he spent it banged up in all night.

i thought u were a respectable lad!

im clearly wrong......






no surrender

I thought the game overall was dissapointing. We did deserve the win though.
The England team were playing with no 'heart; in the first half.
Wheres the pride gone???

hahaha football is well different.

when i went to man city away game last year a few of them left at half time to go run a pub over. got back on the bus at the end of the game, covered in blood, aparently they made a real mess of some of the people in there.

Hargreeves played well tho!

I've often wondered that

James plays because Stevie Harper isnt getting first team football at the mo.

The defence were all poor to average.
Midfield, Gerrard was very good, Frank Lampard did okay as well the rest must try harder.
Forwards, Owen did this biz,Wayne couldnt get going & Vassell caused problems when he came on.

The passing was shite all round. They weren't pushing forward enough. Totally agree about the defence Spence.

Is it Liechtenstein @ home next?

If so we should go crazy & play 3-4-3

No m8. Macendonia next - 6th September then Lichenstein on the 10th.
Turkey after that.
2 wins from the easy teams and we only need a draw against Turkey to definatly win the group. Agree with the 3-4-3, that would be entertaining

I would only play this way against teams where we will have over 60% possession

Agreed. Maybe play a standard setup for the first half of a game and if we're doing well change to 3-4-3.
Who would you have up-front Spence?

used to watch harper at huddersfield, vimpressive...

if murray can keep up his form in the prem we'll have a new england keeper on our hands i reckon... cant belive he didnt get into U21's.. rhys evans doesnt even sound english...

There seems to over zillion half pint sized forwards in the England team these days, I would want someone over 6ft so Beattie would be in.
Owen, do I need to explain? Vassell he does the biz everytime. Roonaldo would have to wait

He hasnt even got a club!!! Chelsea have let him go

I agree with Owen and Beattie m8. I would give Rooney a start against the weaker teams and sub him for Vassel later in the game. Rooney should settle into the England side shortly. He's improving with every game!
