Only Rashford playing well, poor 1st half

XX     I reserve the right to change my mind in the 2nd half.


BUT

I wont.

That was slightly worse than a game at BP, but there's not much in it. I used to love football.

I didn’t realise the team that leaves the competition first presents the cup to the winners now?!


I was there, the day Bradley Wood scored a 35 yarder!

From the black and white striped shirts
To the fish in the sea
You'll hear us singing
Coz we are Grimsby.

You won't hear us crying
But you'll hear us shout
Coz we are the Grimsby
And this is our chant.......... Grimsby! Grimsby! Grimsby!

That was flipping dismal. As bad a performance as the game against Iceland with the difference that Slovenia missed their chances.

Defence, poor. Central midfield did nothing at all - Dier and Henderson look to have come out of the same lumbering mold. Sterling dreadful (but for one decent shot) yet Oxlade-Chamberlain was even worse. Great finish by Kane from our only decent cross of the night.

We end up topping the group thanks to a few last minute goals following poor performances. The better teams at the finals won't give us these chances or will be out if sight by then. I'll be amazed if we get past the group stage in Russia.

2018 will be the last decent world cup, 2022 will be a joke in Qatar and in 2026 it expands permanently to 48 teams which will make the first two weeks meaningless.

So make the most of it England!!

Russia, Brazil, Iran, Japan, Mexico, Belgium, South Korea, Saudi, Germany, England already qualified

Which is why you don't tend to see poor bookies. There's always some idiot willing to give them money for nothing.

Quoted from Bigdog
The problem with a Gareth Southgate team is that it looks like they're coached from an FA manual..

So predictable..


It is.
The football DNA report.

This leaves no room for coaching an adventures expansive game.
England top of there league with 18 goals.
Germany, Spain Italy all top of there leagues scoring well over 30 goals.
England should have scored 20 against the bottom two teams in our league.
All that matters with the DNA balderdash is ball retention and pass completion.


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.
