Anyone interested?  :)

0-0 (coz I'm watching). Att: 45,777

Im interested only because Im bored at work and children in need is on the other side.

Have it on as background noise, Tuesday is the real deal as friendlies go

 :-[

Good going forward, very dodgy at the back

That has a familiar ring to it :sherlock:

I've hardly watched any if it, mostly been on here, but I still feel very sleepy

Germany are going to murder us.

 shite (again)

No matter who the manager is or who the players are, England never change.

Poor technique year after year.

No wonder there are so many foreign players in English football - ours are fucking useless

The med countries and south American sides play with a lot of individual flair and skill, even the centre halves. England are somewhere between Scotland and Germany for type of play and ability. We were off the north coast tonight, weighing anchor near the faroe islands.

There were a few weigh anchors on the pitch

Friendlies are shit ,even v the boxheads.
Bring back the home internationals.

Last Home International I went to was Wales v England at Ninian Park sometime in the early 70s. Franny Lee scored for us.

Needed a hard hat that day

How exactly did Milner look classy for us, yet so inept everywhere else?

Why is Defoe made of trampoline material?

Why do I continually bother to watch these games?

Thought that was awful

Watched the game but really took nothing in really. England were shite and Sanchez looked a good player for them!

Whilst I'd love us to beat the Germans on Tuesday, I can't see it happening! Interestingly I saw of the 6 meetings since 2000 vs Germany we have won 3 (euro 2000, 5-1 and 2-1 over there) and lost 3 (wembley 00 0-1, wembley 07 1-2 and wc 2010 4-1), thought our record was worse than that against them!

I was there tonight.....proper shit it was.

I saw England take two corners that went 3 yards to a defender.......this summed up the match..

Fucked off at 80 minutes and missed the second goal.

Chile were good and really didn't need the play acting and fouling to beat us.

Glad we used that game to see what James Milner can bring to the table... what a pointless selection, we know all about him, was a perfect time to play someone (anyone) else

Whatever we think of England, it seems quite apathetic in the main, I think it's a big shame that the passion for the national side has diminished. I remember WC 1990, the fact we made it to the semis, out on the piss for every England game (me), the ill fitting 5th kit replica shirt (sort of a Coventry blue), passion from the players ala Pearce. Euros 92 and USA 94 we can forget, then came Euro 96 - songs, passion, a bit of traditional Ingerland, then losing to Germany again. France 98, Euros in Greece, next WC in Japan / S Korea then Germany away. I think it's after that when it all changed - and here we are. What changed?

A lot of people went to Germany. I wonder if they put something in the Beer....

England didn't qualify for 94 did they?

I'll always watch the England games on TV if A) There's nothing else on, or, B) I'm not at work.

I generally get bored of International football anyway.

No, they f*ckin didn't! You had to buy tickets for the finals before it was known who had qualified. I had tickets for the DC games and had to watch Norway who qualified at our expense!

Not that you're still bitter about it :)

Two Ronald Koeman goals did for us  :(

You got older.

I've said it before, but I regard it as a good thing...means you can watch an England game in a pub, without the presence of people who know next to jack shit about the game. You tend to have then, the types who you had before Italia 90, proper fans.

Sounds like you got lucky then, the opportunity to see arguably Norway's best ever side in action at the World Cup with Fjørtoft up front.

He was on the bench for the games I saw - And I got abused by Leeds & Spurs fans for wearing my Town shirt. However, I got welcomed with open arms by a group of Norwegians!!
