There ARE other teams(we'd have no-one to play otherwise) and here's where all-comers can discuss the wider world of football......

We played well enough with good effort by everybody. Townsend having a good debut, but still England 0, Royal Mail 0.

For all this talk of 'must win' it's even more so 'mustn't lose'.

Now it's a must win.

For a minute there I thought they'd wasted Townsend's run.

Townsend was fab. Kyle Walker is a f*cking idiot though. Senseless booking. So much of Townsend's game relies on a fullback outside him I'd be tempted to go with Milner at right-back on Tuesday.

Yeah, but to be fair Holland had 10 shots on target !!

Yep been out for a few weeks and not ready yet. He's first choice over Walker I think. Not a lot there after those two, given Micah Richards appears to be dead.

Spurs fans have considered him a world beater to be for several years, there are people who say he could be better than Bale.
The above post is complete bollox/garbage/nonsense, please point this out to me at any and every occasion possible.

Hmm, not yet a single mention on here today of tonight's Poland game. Are we just not all that bothered anymore? I'd like to see us go through, but is it such a big deal if we don't? :conf:

I'm not even going to bother watching it. That fxcking band will be playing those same fxcking toons; the team will do what all England teams do when they need to win, which is go for the safe draw and hope to nick a goal; and Roy fxcking Hodgson will be doing his best impression of a man lost at sea and not quite drowning.

dah daa dit dih, come on england
