    Yes of course the fans should show they're frustration after the abysmal performence, the fans who paid alot to go and see them are pretty !!!!!! off after watching the last match. He should be playing cole on the left and stick stevie g behind rooney or put crouch and defoe up front. Someone in the team needs to tell themn how it is and give them a kick up the behind. Why on earth the players weren't trying enough i dont know.

    The expression "English Football" is an oxymoron itself...

    I mean, look at all our premiership teams; most are full of foreign players, featuring the odd English man, so why on earth are people actually expecting us to do well in a world cup, given we really don't have many good players?!

    We don't even have an English manager!

    Perhaps we should look at all English league teams having to field at least 50% English born players on the pitch at any one time?
    Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
    Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')

    No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)

    The problem is we're not doing this...

    You've got to hold and give, but do it at the right time. You can be slow or fast, but you must get to the line. They'll always hit you and hurt you. Defend and attack, theres only one way to beat them. Get round the back

    Does anybody else think it is time to give Terry back the armband ?

    It's worth considering, the team seemed to play better when Terry was sorting the other player's wives out

    Vyle, I despise football and the culture surrounding it with a passion, but I think many may agree with this, which I paraphrase from Charlie Brooker:

    The England team isn't so much a team as 11 millionaires ruining a lawn.

    But then, who REALLY expected them to do well, really?

    Hahahaha yea they take the p**s out of us each year and they dont even qualify :rotfl:

    Come on we are Scottish!!

    Look how much you sassenachs have spent NOT winning anything!!

    At least we save that(unlike Rob Green who couldn't save a penny in a bank account)

    Daft really, I am a Celtic supporter, although in England I do like West Ham. Green isn't good enough for them, let alone England. Oh well, maybe you deserve him. Stop you lot getting ideas above your station...:rotfl:
