Having not seen any footie for ages, last nights damp squid was pathetic on both sides, with the occaisional flurry, the result did not seem to matter at all, but it tested Webley's new arean, it was a sell out with 90.000 eager fans praying to the round ball, probably made in pakistan by some young lad for pennies.
When you listen to the crowd and shut your eyes you could think you are in a big cathedral.
Have they always sung the national anthems in the past, or is this just another copy of US razzmatazz? nevermind

To me it seemed just more of the same, another game of football with the wrong result acheived. As a friend remarked, if you had backed england £50 to lose every match they have played over the last 40 years , I wonder how much you would have won.....
Just to think that every england player is valued more that the whole of the Norwich team together, the total value of the England squad is seriousley bad value for money and ability.
Every England supporter must hang their heads in total dispair, as to when if ever they will ever win anything again.........Sad for anybody really under 40 years old, they have never seen England win any tournament, and may never will before they die.
Now considering the amount spent on football that is a massive reality check for fans , that the ability of our players has been so bad for so long with little propect of improvement....foreign players have that ability to play well, we just have the ability to make countless endless excuses.........for not playing well.
And as we all know excuses win nothing...and are just an admission of defeat.
Mind you when you send Rooney with an injury in the last world cup, and injured Beckham the world cup before that...you can understand why wins don`t come..if to rely on unfit players.... like having a Rally Car with one bald tyre...

Or, like having a country full of whingers only too willing to hammer in that final nail.
Good grief, our national side lost a game of football. Yes, those well-paid players under performed. No, I don't earn as much as them (and never will). No, I am not jealous. Are others...?
Not to worry; it'll soon be Christmas - plenty to moan about then.
"Pathetic," he said, "that's what it is. Pathetic."
