Fixed it.<br><br><br>
England football team, never been any different. <br><br>
All. My . Fucking. Life.<br><br>
I thought that England had plumbed the depths when we failed to qualify for 74 world cup, but it seems they will always find a new way to screw up, year after year after year.<br><br>
That said, (1) fair play to Iceland and (2) it ain't over yet. -
Rooney has been utterly terrible in the 2nd 40.<br><br>
2nd 45 LOL... -
Engexit?

<p><strong>78 min: </strong>“I’m sure the rest of Europe watching on won’t be remembering this game for a very long time,†says ITV commentator Clive Tyldeseley, by way of reflection on the quality of the play. I think you’re mistaken, there Clive. I think if Iceland can hang on the rest of Europe watching on will remember this game for a very long time.</p>

But to be fair, I suppose, England are on the tough side of the draw.

<p><strong>85 min:</strong> The camera cuts to Roy Hodgson on the England bench. He’s deep in conversation with his No2 Ray Lewington, but looks completely frazzle, bearing the countenance of a man who has no idea what to do next.</p>

<p>It's becoming a national leadership trait...</p> -

<p>Masterclass from Italy. IMO the 2 best teams are Italy and Germany, it's a real pity they meet in the 1/4 finals.<br><br>
Belgium will choke, they always do. France have defensive issues.<br><br>
Wales, Portugal, Poland making up the numbers.<br><br>
And we see, but I fancy Iceland in 30 minutes to give England a hurry-up.</p>

<br><p>Why do I never put money where my mouth is :(<br><br>
Well that was 90 minutes well spent<br><br>
England fans must feel like us in 2007. Commiserations.</p> -
<p>at least their rugby team won</p>

Haaaaaaahaaaaaaahhaaaaaaaaa!<br><br>
After the RWC I accused the team of being a bunch of overhyped, choking cockwombles. It gives me great pleasure to pass that crown on to a more truly deserving team. Even with England's football's track record in fucking things up, this performance was truly outstanding. Well done guys. -
Iceland showing that being outside the EU makes you awesome. Setting the example.

<p>Just flicked off the two yearly text to my brother in law (who's from Hull) commiserating him on another exit from a major football tournament.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>His response: "I will never watch England play again."</p>

<p>Sport is raw emotion.</p> -

Speechless.</p></blockquote>

His praise of the team's efforts was positively Borthwickian. I almost thought they'd won.
