Yey!!!!!!!! God save her Maj
I love Wallander but should I come across him tonight I would have to trample him into the marsh
Perhaps I should have said " happened upon him"
Yessssssss!!!!!!!
What were you saying about too many Liverpool players in the squad Miles?
I'm in the Zlatan is actually good camp along with Cressa but he's being a bit of a moron today. Granted I'm watching a stream and not being able to follow it completely but it seems like he does well initially and then meekly gives the ball away every time.
This is total fucking shit. Our ball retention is abysmal. Sweden are average enough and we can't hold onto the bloody thing for any length of time.
Yessssssss,!
Fouling cheating bastards
Lovely goal
Toothless eh Miles?
Ahhhhhh, glad that's over. Welbeck's goal was lovely, and we did well to fight back from 2-1 down. On the whole I thought the performance was poor. we struggled to keep hold of the ball, didn't pressure Sweden enough when they had the ball and too often resorted to just knocking it long to Carroll.
I'm very happy with the win though. We got away with one there.
WELL DONE ENGLAND :cool:
Just a quick heads up guys as this has finished... the big brother eviction show has just started ;)
hope this helps :)

It's England so we always make things harder than they need to be. Sweden were nowhere near as threatening as we made them look at times. More patience whilst in possession will reap dividends but the weight of responsibility and nerves, still seem to make us choke at times. They had men in numbers happy to camp in their own half for large parts of the game and the first time we tried something a bit different we tore them apart. Hodgson was spot on with the line up and substitutions but we did miss the creativity that Rooney or Oxlade-Chamberlain contribute, with Gerrard and Parker both fire fighting for large parts of the game. That improvisational flair in the middle of the park gives players a breather and opens up the opposition, as Gerrard did with his great ball to Caroll. Bring on the Ukrainians.
He's a Bailiff isn't he? If he came round your house you would feel obliged to ask if he needed a hand carrying the telly. Not that I watch it, the Mrs is an addict and I involuntarily absorb some of it, like a legionnaires victim with a dodgy air conditioning unit. :sick2:Quote:

It was a patchy, but more entertaining effort. At least we are likely to go through now. I'm off back to bed. I was up until 5 am watching that one.
Brilliant game and I have to admit Hodgeson's tactics of old defenders and Midfielders with young wingers and strikers is working.
Im off work this week, thought it would be a good idea to go to the pub all day and watch both games. This resulted in me being wankered and pretty much missing the game. I was sick in the carpark so not a total waste of time.
Just watched the highlights. Not convinced Welbeck meant that, that was a drag down to riffle in with the left I reckon.
England vs Ukraine will be a stunner. Brits performed horrid against Sweden. And Ukraine can play. Looks like Brits are on queer-street. ;D
Rooney is back and he will batter them. ;)Quote:

England BEAT Sweden not Britain.Quote:

I have to take my hat off to Hodgson. He has shown more tactical smarts than I expected.
The only thing anyone could fault him on is bringing on Henderson in the first match.
Massive match next with some big decisions to be made. He needs to keep getting them right or we are out. We could do with a high scoring win too, to avoid a massive team like Spain in the next round.
A draw will be a good result against Ukraine, I can see us losing tbh :(
No way, you are a pessimist.Quote:

Holland out, Ronaldo looked quality.

England "were" basically neutralised is what you meant to say before you accidentally revealed your footballing ignorance.Quote:

Not only did I puke in the carpark and fall over a few times I also apparently asked an old friend if he had HIV (he did look rough mind) whilst missing the Sweden game.
Good night all round.
what a night - long time since had a night out like Friday on the back of an England game in a tournament.
Hit the pub at 5 and rolled in around 4.30 after a curry at Headingley's finest establishment....The Rajput.
We looked poor at times but we created chances and came back when we all thought it was a lost cause.
Did Wellbeck mean it ? Basically I don't give a fuck, it went in. The end.
Their first to equalize was lucky enough with 4-5 lucky breaks in it to help it cross the line.
Lets beat the Ukranians and have a little bit of luck for once and avoid the Spaniards. Get to the semis and anything can happen (and we will have belief). Am not counting ny chickens though it will be a nother nervey night tomorrow I am sure.
And I echo Shearer's thoughts in the Sun today - how refreshing to see and England manager celebrating an England goal. Never saw that with Sven and Fabio. We need an Englishman at the helm from now on.
I didn't agree with Roy's appointment but he is growing on me.
Long may it continue. We're not good enough to win it without lady luck on our side - but she's long overdue
I am top of the league
UEFA fine Croatia £65,000 after their fans directed racist chants at Mario Balotelli.
UEFA fine Nicklas Bendtner £80,000 for lowering his shorts to display the Paddy Power logo on his underwear after scoring against Portugal.
Mr. Platini certainly has his priorities straight.
I kind of think Portugal might win the whole thing (although granted I haven't really looked at the draws). They could have easily gotten a point against Germany and look to be improving. Pretty good defensively and won't have any problem with defending and countering (looked deadly against a shitty Holland team) against Germany or Spain.
Also, I don't know if I realized how good Modric was till yesterday. He looked like the best player on the field at times against a historic midfield.
Portugal really do have some clowns though. Ronaldo comes off as an incredibly likeable guy compared to Pepe. I feel like Marcelo should be their left back, Coentrao's not enough of a cunt.
pepe is a cunt and Ronaldo is a dick but they are class acts compared to Rooney and Terry.Quote:
