I understand the disappointment, but it is ridiculous to be criticising Southgate for this loss. Hammer the ref if scapegoats are your thing.

Nobody would have picked these teams as the final four. Quite a positive for world football, I guess.

Boo to this shit. Did enough, bar the obvious, to win.

We were the better side, just about. We can win this.

‘66 ? then ‘22 ?. C’mon England!

Yep, I mean I know they have quality in depth, but can’t help thinking (1) Big Joe would have searched and destroyed through that Croatian midfield, and (2) it was a Bruno type game, especially with his mate alongside. Not complaining, couldn’t see England beating that Brazil side in a final. Could see us beating Croatia or Argentina.

? can’t remember what I was going to post. Still laughing at Karmgasm from another thread … and above.

Bloody hell! Thought we might see a critical goal from Bruno, but not that Bruno!

What a knobhead.

What’s a ‘Dale shirt’? A brand? (…or obscure American criticism ?)

Self-centred cunt.

6 fecking nil! Tut-tut… you deserve to be tumbling down the league with predictions like that ?

Your club, and its visibility, gets you to the squad (or not). It’s on him, training and game time, to secure a start. Doubt he’ll feature again, though if they bring him on in the final, when they’re trailing three nil to us, and he scores one and creates one, leading to a deafening twatter clamour for him to have been brought in sooner, we’ll… that’s ok too.

Half of that, he earns over twenty times more than most doctors.

I like it! Can we anglicise and steal? ? ooohh! our Geordie noise, our Geordie noise, our Geordie noise, our Geordie noise ? (repeat for twenty minutes)

Made in St James’ (ish).

Not sure that helps on the ol’ befuddlement front Loki Lad! pssst! Are you a secret agent?

I’m geographically befuddled, is that Libya or Longbenton?

Gateshead international stadium holds about 12,000. Just bang up a couple of stands. Two metro stops from Central, or an easy walk/can hit the town with a catapult. Perhaps our women’s team and/or reserves can play there as they get bigger crowds.

Had my haircut by an ardent, home and away, Liverpool fan recently. Who, to my great amusement, kept calling his favourite player Jordy. Bet Henderson loves that if they are all at it!

I doubt your Ashley-Animosity burned any brighter than mine, but Shola—and Jamaal—have been phenomenal servants to this club and both have got a pass from me.

See how that idea holds up when and if there’s a critical moment in a tense World Cup final. One North East, One England

Bugger! Bloody Xmas party clash. Might have to have to deal with some ‘urgent work’.

Think I’d be doing terribly in this. Fair play to those who aren’t ?
