Won't let me apply for the ballot, once through the queue there is a "Sign In" button next to the fixture, that looks greyed out and does nothing when you click it. Only bought memberships yesterday so unsure if the system hasn't caught up, but memberships are showing in my account

Ah sorry @Magpie England 1-1 Spain

Never change a drawing team.

Spain 1-0 France Netherlands 1-1 England

The first half was better but the rest was passive shite. I'm struggling to get behind it, it's so fucking dull.

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

How do you work out who is 1st to 16th though - based on points, goal difference etc? Because that just makes being drawn in a tough group even more punishing. My idea from a few years ago was for the top 4 first place teams to get a bye into the last 8. The remaining 1st and all 2nd place teams (8 teams) play each other in a qualifier to play those teams in the last 8. Rewards those teams who have performed especially well in the groups with a rest and means it's just the top 2 from each group qualifying.

Thing is with Tyldesley is that he's the antichrist obviously but the likes of Matterface and Drury are his fault as well. Blood on his hands.

Exactly, I genuinely expected Gordon and Palmer to be getting 20+ minutes a game in the group stages on the basis they were among the best in their positions last season and bring attributes that aren't present in the starting 11. Southgate says he's trying to achieve a balance between including these young players and protecting them. Protecting them from what? These lads play at a higher level than vs Serbia, Denmark and Slovenia every single week.

Manager tells them to play "free attacking football" apparently.

That's a shame, used to love his enthusiasm. RIP.

Keegan did it for a bit while still managing Fulham, it was around that time they started allowing you to do it on the game iirc. He left Fulham in the end to do England full time.

Beth loves comparing footballers to supermarket workers for some reason, did the same with Tonali.

Pickford is a mackem and doesn't even seem in the least bit ashamed of it, not a chance.

Love owt like them bonny patterns me. I cringe a bit whenever we use gold though, it has glorious connotations and we've won fuck all for ages

Get him on national service for a year, see how it goes.
