The Chocolate Derby ..


AKA the Boring Reputation Derby


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.

Quoted from lukeo
Just had to Google and read a bug essay on the explan9pf how these group things work... I just thought it was friendlies but out into a group, didn't realise it was an actual tournament! I paid virtually no interest in the England games and kind of wish I did now. A bit. So it's england Portugal France and Switzerland in the semis??!!??!!


Yeh thats the whole point, the friendlies in the past served little purpose in terms of practicing for tournaments and fans werent interested, spain fighting so hard to try and come back when we were 3-0 up showed how the national teams feel about this competition.

I love watching england since southgate has been in charge and cant wait for international breaks. Weve got a team with character, togetherness, style, talented youngsters and though we lacked in areas at the world cup, the talent we needed is quickly appearing, im really excited for the next few years for england

I note that you say "you'd support Steve Evans" rather than "be happy with Steve Evans". Because let's face it, when is Ipswin ever happy?

Just enjoy the bloody wins for club and country, crack open a beer, and if you can muster it....a smile 😉


I'm enjoying the wins as much as anyone but I'm not going overboard about how much I like Southgate or how nice he is FFS. It's results that get supporters behind clubs / countries not what a lovely man the manager is

All this 'likeability' crap raised by the earlier poster is totally irrelevant and means nowt.

And yes I'd be happy with Steve Evans or anybody who won matches for that matter, I just wouldn't like him or want to smother him in kisses thats all

One thing it wasn't was boring, a great game, rather watch that than predictable England any day

Rejuvenated Netherlands tonight, I hope they can get the point they need

Swin, Would you have the odious Mark Connolly ( who elbowed nice Harry Cardwell) at Town to shore up our defence? OR  put Harry on a red meat diet?

Were Crawley odious? Were Grimsby Town nice? Is one game the be all and end all?

Half of Town's problems over the years may well stem from being too 'nice', I have posted on here before about preferring a 'win at all costs' approach and a number of holier than thou posters have disagreed

Just out of interest, as Southgate obviously likes and had given youth a chance, if say Beckham, Lampard and Gerrard had all been 28 years old would they have been picked.
