Legit forgot Che Adams was on the pitch.

I know it’s a bit shitty for the fans in the top tier, but that shot of the full three tiers for the goal kick was ace.

Most yellow yellow card ever.

They have so many players back yet there’s always a guy free in the right and passing options in the middle.

Similar in that the oppo genuinely played well so they were outclassed in every way.

Dunno why McGinn’s facing backwards there, they can’t do any more damage to his face.

He’s not great, but they keep giving him the ball with no options and a German up his arse.

Yeah honestly wanted Scotland to give them a game but now I’d be happy for them to let in 10

With Germany pressing so well Scotland desperately need an outlet up front and wide and just don’t have the players. Kinda want this to be a total annihilation

Yup. So bloody easy.

This is looking ominous.

One of those where you can totally see why he didn’t save it, but he really should have saved it,

Happy to still be on the bus tbh.

I’m rushing home from Central London. Pubs around Euston seemed fairly up for it

“American businessman Friedkin, who has a reported net worth of £4.8bn, wants Serie A side Roma and Premier League club Everton to sit at the top of a multi-club model.” *sigh*

I mean, you either support a team or you don’t. There are a million political and social reasons to not support England. For all the flaws we’re guessing are in that study, we all knew that Liverpool and Newcastle would be near the top and Chelsea and West Ham would be near the bottom. I’m just interested in the argument that simultaneously where you’re born and grow up doesn’t make you support your country, but a specific football team is in your blood. Everyone’s different, but the entire reason I support both my country and team is in my blood.

Were your parents from Newcastle? Spurs is in my blood through my Dad and my childhood. England is also in my blood through my Dad and my childhood. I have some of that patriotism and national pride just as I have some of that Norf London pride. If you don’t then fair enough. A lot of England fans are cunts but every club’s fan base has cunts too - doesn’t mean we stop supporting them.

He’s good but injuries, basically. Versatile left-sided defender.

It was always England. Presumably because I moved to London when I was young and because of my Dad. Also I suspect partly because of Botham and 1981. For some reason (maybe class ) I was always a bit more ambiguous about the rugby.

True. Largely because you were shat out by your Ma on that patch of Earth by the Tyne (I presume). My Ma shat me out in Sydney, but I grew up in north London with a Spurs-mad Dad so it’s in my blood, and family, and community. So’s England, albeit a bit more diluted (literally in my case with an Australian mum). One of the things I love about football is that it brings a community together. The irony of course is that it also splits it up - particularly in, say, North London. One of the things I love about international football is that it brings those tribes together. My best memories of England matches involve celebrating with and hugging fans of other teams. If you don’t experience that then fair enough. I think you’re missing out, but that’s life’s rich tapestry.

I think he legit twisted his knee himself. My favourite guy is the one who walks past and smirks at the camera

The Birmingham City fan said he’d rather see England win Euro 2024 than Brum win the Premier League, with all the implications of that (your team has been completely revitalized, promoted then taken the Premier League by storm and presumably beaten Villa to the title)? If that means I’m in a bubble, then it’s a bubble of sanity.

Yeah he was with us from 12-16. Comes from Barnet, not far away.

Yeah I don’t buy that at all. Two out of every five Spurs fans would rather England win Euro 2024 than us win the fucking league? Fuck off Definitely one where I would be investigating the methodology.

I have no idea what is going on at Chelsea . Somebody said something about them selling a hotel?
