The Humble pie factory must be in overdrive at the moment.
I've got a massive pie in the face coming my way along with plenty of others for doubting the way Southgate wants England play the game.
He's proved me wrong big style.
Such a strong manager, brings a player on then takes him off for the good of the game.
Come on England


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.

I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

He's done better than I expected with his very defensive line-ups (6 or 7 defensive players in every game). What helps is that the squad is obviously much stronger and deeper than it has been for a long time and we've not had serious injury problems in the way many past England teams have. If Kane had been crocked early in the tournament, what would have happened? With the best will in the world, we don't have anyone else nearly as capable of leading the line and scoring goals. And that's including the fact that he was really sub-par for the first few games.

If that’s genuine then I actually feel sorry for you.


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Maybe he should find a time machine, go back to 96 and slot his penalty in the other way v Germany ?!

let's be honest, tonight was a proper 'British game' as opposed to last night which was a technically brilliant classic . england deserved their win, but Italy are hardly going to be quaking in their boots

Southgate can do nothing more to prove his  doubters,which I had become one of, utterly wrong. Tonight's performance was EVERYTHING previous teams wanted to be but never could,especially that 5 minute keep ball at the end. Sublime
