As far away from that horrible woman, Nicola Sturgeon, as possible.

Quoted from Grim74
We used to be good at hooliganism but we even failed miserably at that last year.


That's what we're good at then - stopping our real hooligans travelling abroad. Unlike the Russians, whose authorities seem to connive at it. (Those Ivans who were disappointed in the English last year were 20+ years too late).


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Deli Alli is a good player but we've got a about 15 players who would make the world best 300 players but virtually none who would make the world best 50.

The academy system absolutely sucks - half of our best players came from non league/ lower league clubs. There needs to be limits on the number of players teams can sign up to the age of 21.

We have a good squad of players, no world class ones but good ones. Maybe the issue has been the quality of the managers over the last few decades.

How can anyone seriously say we've got players even close to being world class after the shambles of the last 2 world cups and euros ?! Kyle and Rose ffs ?!

Sorry forgot to add ^^ we're a fooking joke and the only reason to bother going to an England game is to go on the p.iss abroad for a few days .

Like I said on another thread, we are still producing quality players, the difference now is that so is every other country due to improved facilities. A lot of the smaller nations have caught us up rather than us going backwards.

I read somewhere a Russian Billionaire was offering to fly out any England fans who fancied having a pop at the Russian Hooligans such was his confidence in their ability to despatch visiting yobs and you have the Sports Minister wanting to make hooliganism a sport.If nothing else it should make for an entertaining few weeks of mock horror news and journalism.Goading the English seems to be a favourite pastime for these Russians and it could well come back and haunt them if large numbers travel looking for trouble one thing that is for certain you can bet it will all be our fault.
