oh go to fucking hell ref thats a shocking miss

how the hell is McCarthy still in the team

fair dues to them

good god one side of the draw is looking a small bit ludicrous

first spain defeat at the euros since 04

wait I got spain in the sweepstake...........fuck it come on croatia

get in!

how the fuck do you bring 5 strikers (3 of whom are actually rather good) and be this rubbish in front of goal.

on the other hand those better sides will in theory have better possession of the ball so england would have less chances and they're not exactly clinical as it is

yeah but that was a chaotic summer with everyone focused on is the club sold yet every day. And we also signed Simpson on loan before that which was basically a permanent signing

does it really matter in the slightest what he believes?

should be 1-0

real midfielder not whatever rooney qualifies as these days

oh look kanes not on corners, instead its rooney, can no english midfielder take a fucking corner?

I'm not a fan of hurting the players because the fans are dicks. I'm a fan of doing whatever is necessary to stop this kind of behaviour continuing, personally. I'm sure the players will get over it. What about the thousands of normal fans that are over here, have had nothing to do with and of the shenanigans, and will be massively out of pocket. Will you be a fan of that too? Tough love for the global game. I reckon the whole thing of English teams being banned from Europe a few decades back was a massive step in all but eradicating the significant hooligan culture in the domestic game. If you believe it's just a handful of blokes kicking off then fair enough but even on 'biased' film theres hundreds chanting needless stuff. Even if it is hundreds, I'm not doubting it isn't, as someone who will be going to the Slovakia match I don't see why I should be punished because someone else has been a c*** just because I have the same cover on my passport. Lock it down for the remainder and dish out whatever punishment necessary post tournament. What about the innocent people who live in Lille or Marseille who are having their cities ripped apart? I think, personally, they should throw the book at us. It's not fair on the good fans, but at some point the country as a whole has to take responsibility for these fuckwits. I don't see how allowing them to continue (and it will be allowed to continue), and then getting a slap on the wrist once it's all over, is ever going to stop this kind of behaviour going forward, especially if we qualify for the next world cup. punishing perfectly innocent people for the crimes of others is both lazy and wrong. Find those responsible and punish them appropriately and don't tar everyone with the same brush

fair dues Iceland but by god what a garbage group
