Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: Rasener Date: 28 Mar 07 - 04:21 AM Top Gas-Guzzlers All in all 25 top footballers have BMW X5s and 23 own Range Rover Sports. Bottom of the table in the environmental league. Heres the link Terry, Rooney, Ferdinand, Gerrard, Neville Thats not the only thing they are bottom at. |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: ard mhacha Date: 28 Mar 07 - 04:31 AM Apart from 1966 and 5 games at Wembley to win the win their one and only trophy, England have one of the poorest records in Europe. When all of the Leagues in England consisted of home grown players they still performed dismally, remember the star-studded England side embarrassed in the early rounds of the 1950 World Cup by the USA, as for their record in European Championships it is rock-bottom. |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: Big Al Whittle Date: 28 Mar 07 - 07:04 AM You're right - it went wrong a long time ago. In the land time forgot. When I was in my primary school, I saw Billy Wrights Wolves get thrashed by Barcelona, who were reckoned to be not quite as good as Real Madrid. They were just qualitatively different. The general consensus was that our blokes were jumping round in hobnail boots, like you bought off the market - whilst they had the sexy new 'continental' football boots. 'Continental style football boots' - I think you can still get them from the Anne Summers catalogue. |

Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: Rasener Date: 28 Mar 07 - 03:29 PM Half an hour gone and its typical rubbish again. Andorra 0 England Lions 0 Won't get to see the rest of the match as I have decided not to watch and let my daughters watch Sky instead. |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: Rasener Date: 28 Mar 07 - 04:14 PM Ah wellmy daughters said I could have some more punishment and let me watch the second half. Was I surpised to see that it was 0 - at half time (not). Doesn't look - well it does as at 53 minutes Gerrard has scored. Oh my god, are they going to trounce Andorra now!!!!! |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: Rasener Date: 28 Mar 07 - 05:02 PM Thank goodness for Gerrard. 3 - 0 to England in the end, but England were still not convincing. Saved McC...... job, I suppose. |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: ard mhacha Date: 28 Mar 07 - 05:11 PM The punters who backed England at 1-2, minus 3 goals were very fortunate, N Ireland was the best win of the night beating Sweden 2-1,and going top of their section, the R of Ireland were worthy winners against a poor Slovak side. I seen the last 15 minutes of England v Andorra, pathetic, all that could be said in their favour, the last minute goal which saved the punters hides. |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: alanabit Date: 28 Mar 07 - 06:14 PM Good teams win when they play badly. Bad teams lose when they play well. As far as I am concerned, the worst thing about tonight's result is that it may help to keep McClaren in position for a little longer. If our newshounds had not been such intrusive ratbags, we could have had Scolari as manager. |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: GUEST,Arnie at work Date: 29 Mar 07 - 07:49 AM Anyone know the truth about Lampard not being selected? I heard that it was due to a fractured wrist but the papers say that McClaren had decided to drop him but didn't have the bottle to say so and used the wrist problem as an excuse - what a way to manage! At least it gave Gerrard the chance to come inside and look how he responded (fortunately!) |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: Rasener Date: 29 Mar 07 - 07:49 AM >>the worst thing about tonight's result is that it may help to keep McClaren in position for a little longer<< Not sure about that Alanabit. Seems like the whole country and press are after him. How much pressure can he take. No matter what anybody thinks, he has lost the respect, and i don't know how he can move forward with enthusiasm and ensure motivation from the players. IMHO he is boring and crap. Get rid of him. |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: GUEST Date: 29 Mar 07 - 08:18 AM It's no good moaning that McLaren never did anything as a club manager. When Erikson came, he had a good reputation from managing in the Italian league, but he still couldn't make any progress as England manager. It seems nobody can. It's a great shame Brian Clough never got to have a go, that would have been interesting. Martin O'Neill may be the best bet now. |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: Rasener Date: 29 Mar 07 - 08:55 AM >>Martin O'Neill may be the best bet now. << No he won't be. He isn't leaving Villa me thinks. The last time we let our manager go, he finished up as a turnip head :-) |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: guitar Date: 29 Mar 07 - 11:59 AM As a Scot, I'm glad that England won, however I'm sorry that Andorra lost along with Scotland however we were taken on the world champions. And I knew that Scotland was going to get beat anyway because Italy are a better side. |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: Big Al Whittle Date: 29 Mar 07 - 05:48 PM What is so bad about ths McClaren bloke? |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 29 Mar 07 - 08:09 PM One way of looking at managers is that they are lucky mascots. And McClaren's problem is, he's not lucky. |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: ard mhacha Date: 30 Mar 07 - 05:48 AM I forecast now that England will qualify, I had a look at their remaining fixtures and they will get enough points, their section consists of very poor teams, and they won`t lose any home fixtures. The Scots and the two Irish teams won`t qualify and poor old Wales are gone, my head is on the block, so remember I told you. |
Subject: RE: BS: Israel 0:England 0 From: Rasener Date: 30 Mar 07 - 09:41 AM I agree England will qualify, but it is the way that they are playing that upsets me. |
