Euro '04
I don't think you should take football that serious. It's only a game, the worlds not going to end if France or whoever else wins. And frankly, if you're a grown man and you're going to cry because England lost you're just plain sad.
And stop with the bleeding French or I'll start doing this in Dutch!

I am still in disbelief of those last 2 minutes of injury time.
Its 'kismet' and its not alot one can do about it.
I thought the French had fewer chances than us but when the they took them they delivered at the crucial part of the game and we didn't.
As far as I remember the USA did quite well in the last World Cup considering they are not a footballing nation by tradition. Frank, didn't all the top stars i.e Pele and Best etc play for New York Cosmos ?
P.S
Just out of curiosity.
Is 4-4-2 formation better or 5-3-1 ?

On a seperate note I called a mate from back in the day, he was told he couldn't attend the games as he is a known 'hooligan'
Now thats a fan.

Ho-hum, just about recovered from the hangover...
Not a lot to be said that hasn't been said, we played well in the first half, to be ahead at the break was a bonus, we were far too defensive in the second; if it had been anyone but Zidane on that freekick, we'd have won it.
Feel sorry for Stevie Gerrard, he had a solid game up to that back-pass. Rooney was outstanding, Owen didn't see the ball; I can see why Rooney was taken off, he'd run his heart out, but can we not find anyone better than the donkey?? Fat Frankie's looking sharp as well...we seem to like doing things the hard way, so roll on Switzerland...we'll get another stab at the Frogs in the final.
To be honest, is there another side in it?? We haven't seen the Germans yet, but even the Krauts are saying they haven't got a chance. Portugal were abysmal (although the Greeks were well organised), Spain didn't look great, Sweden scored a lot but against poor opposition, and Italy were just dull. I can honestly see an England/France final now, if we don't follow the drill and choke in the semis!!
Marina, where are you getting your numbers from?? The way telly shows it nowadays often has four numbers: eg. 5-3-1-1 where you only have one out and out striker and one guy sitting just in front of midfield. Possible you've just missed a number??

If you are a Beckham follower DO NOT READ THIS, if you are not a Beckham follower then you might like this
Sven Goran Ericsson is on "Who Wants To Be Millionaire" and has reached
the million pound question. Chris Tarrant says "Right Sven, this is for one
million pounds, and remember, you still have two lifelines left, so please
take your time.'
Here's your question: What type of animal lives in a sett?
a) a badger
b) a ferret
c) a mole or
d) a cuckoo?
Sven ponders for a while and says "No, I'm sorry Chris, I'm not too sure.
I'll have to go 50-50."
Right, Sven, let's take away two wrong answers and see what you're left
with " Badger" and "Cuckoo" are the two remaining answers. Sven has a long think, then scratches his head and says "No, Chris, I'm still not sure, I'm going to have to phone a friend."
So who are you going to call, Sven?" says Chris.
Hmmm..I think I'll call David Beckham." So Tarrant phones David Beckham.
David, this is Chris Tarrant from 'Who Wants To Be AMillionaire'. I've
got Sven Goran Ericsson here, and with your help he could win one million
pounds.
The next voice you hear will be Sven's".
Hello David" says Sven. "It's the boss here. What type of animal lives in
a sett?
Is it a badger or a cuckoo?"
It's a badger, boss." says Becks without hesitation.
You sure, son?" says Sven.
Definitely, boss. One hundred percent.It's a badger. Definitely."
Right, Chris," says Sven, "I'll go with David. The answer's a badger.
Final answer."Sven," says Chris, "That's the correct answer. You've won
One million pounds!!" (Cue wild celebrations.)
Next morning at training, Sven calls Beckham across. "Son, that was
brilliant last night. I thought I might be taking a gamble giving you a
call, but you played a blinder! But how the hell did you know that a
badger lives in a sett?" Oh I didn't, boss," replies Beckham, "But everybody knows a cuckoo lives in a clock."
