does anyone actually care if England lose to Croatia tonight?
Nope...
For all the wrong reasons.
My tits will deflate at an alarming speed if there's loads of footy talk tonight!

Just thought how bossy that sounds...
Go ahead boys, I don't own the thread, nor would I seek to dictate it's content.
Don't know what came over me.
I really should know my place. No wonder I'm single. I'm a right termigant sometimes.

We are heavily supporting Andorra: hope that helps (14th minute of the England match it is now, btw :wink: )
Looks a lot better now in the 64th minute - not for Andorra, though

what does this mean spendy?
England were .....er....not good
I'm relieved actually. Will now be able to enjoy euro 2008 without agonising over diabolical England performances.

"one of their most inept displays in living memory" writes the BBC
I presume the lady means "termagant" in which case it means that if she had power over you and you did anything to try her patience, even slightly, I wouldn't like to be in your tutu whatever colour it is.
Anyway- junior civil servants are not in high regard just now
Anyway, the England players can now enjoy a nice relaxing summer holiday when the Premiership is done and dusted and that is no small thing to a bunch of millionaires in their age range and educational attainment.
No doubt they will be thinking of all the hard training in the heat they are missing as they enjoy themselves on the beaches of tropical pleasure spots.
Good luck to them eh? They are working men after all and the season is sufficient to lay most people out.
There's far too many women in positions of responsibility IMHAHO. Like Joe Royal said, they should be at home ironing and dusting. That's what they are good at and with all these labour saving devices we have invented for them they could be having a great time while "Daddy's Gone a Hunting", the title of a book by Penelope Gilliat who was married to C.P.Snow.

Get a grip with your spelling, you lot.
I've been to the pub, and I'll fight all of you.

Y'all wouldn't let it go, would you?
Even though you had the footy to distract you - you still picked me up on my spelling.
Anyway, I'll rise above it and bid YOU LOT Good Morning.
spendy, I challenge you to go 24 hours without name dropping...
betcha can't!

I picked Spendy up on his spelling too, but he was right and I was wrong. Post in haste, repent at leisure, as my old grandpappy used to say.
An England victory last night might have saved Alistair Darling and the Government's bacon, but now I'm not so sure.
Gordon Brown will get the blame for the feel-bad factor.
Tony and Cherie must be loving this.
Talking of 24 hours, I've just belted up to the docs on my trusty Brompton flying machine because I thought my appt was 9.30 and found out it was 9.00 this morning...to learn I had arrived 23 3/4 hours early. Either I've bought a time machine or there is a fault with my calendar. I was pretty miffed i can tell you, especially by the laughing receptionist.

Thanks you learn something everyday. Even what day of the week it is. Has McClaren got his 10m failure related bonus pay off yet?
Sorry smorgs but I have to get this off my tits as you would say...
England were hopeless. Tactically naive and technically poor. And why didnt the roof close on the new 456 billion pound arena the FA built? Someone forgot to oil it?
Any one of 1/2 doz "English" club teams could have beaten Croatia last night imo. But in those club teams, there are not enough English players to form a half decent national side.
If you took aside some (not all) of those England players last night and said "play like that again sonny and you can say goodbye to your England career" the response would be
"So what? I didnt get into this business to play for England. Want to play for any club where I can have a great time and get paid ooodles of money for doing not much. You expect me to treat the England shirt with respect when I and you know how the FA regard their own relationship to money?"
People will be saying this is a defining moment. That it brought about root and branch reform, and realism about English national football. But it wont. The FA will blunder on, they'll eventually find someone else to replace McClaren, and the new England manager will speak to camera all bright eyed and bushy tailed say the right words and go off to pick a team from an ever decreasing resource base.
ok thats me done.
It's got no roof. FA decision.
ah that explains a lot.
No wonder England lost. Can expect them to play decent football when its drizzling.
I see you lot are further encouraging that cleverly self appointed Maharajah of A2K to sit on his white throne like a very poorly educated rural bumpkin, who happens to understand himself perfectly well!
The idiotic clown is no doubt under the sole impression (see the ID thread...weeks back to Farmer) that the minutes of his arrival, submissions and departure will be chronological records for the future descendants of protagonists to suffer education from the maestro!
The mind is baffled and the body shudders at the the thoughts!
Totally obscure in expression, cryptic in thought, undistinguished in presentation; the students will be obligated as parasites seeking upmanship in the drivel of the ancient one!
They should take the oaf away now!
Ah well, the sun is shining, I'll go for a bicycle ride.
