The way people are going on this morning on tv. We were unlucky, we were fantastic, incredible.
FFS, Germany, Brazil, Argentina, Spain, Portugal, Uruguay.....all knocked out in the earlier rounds. But not by England, by the other teams in the latter stages. If we'd won our group (instead of being soundly beaten by Belgium, have we forgotten that one?) we'd have been home long ago.
I'm not knocking the fans, the dreamers, but this is like a party political broadcast, where you just know they're talking shite.

As my flight landed last night someone on board got the game up live on a tablet as England scored. So that was a git. Hate knowing part of the result in advance.

Got home and avoided the result. Watched the bbc replay at 12.15 our time. It was 3 when i got to bed.

Well done England getting as far as they did. Our media need a good slapping using words like crashing out. They didnt just got beaten by a better side. Any other European country and our guys would be heroes.

Aswell as VAR the ref ought to have a taser to use on the many divers and pugilists.

For once I couldnt agree with you more, as you say, by hook, crook or luck,  the Bigs Boys managed to get themselves knocked out, and we didnt have to play any of them, we would have got slaughtered if we did.

Probably best were out now, rather than have to painfully lose in the the Finals, the French would have kicked our arse anyway, France have been playing brilliantly and deserve to be in the Finals.

As for Croatia, they seemed half asleep in the first half but soon woke up to prove they were the better Team, England, well we did what we normally do, wacked one in, then became complacent and played the rest of the match like a Sunday morning kick around.

Sorry to be a downer, but our luck had just run out, and Im afraid thats all it was, we were lucky to get were we did.

You also bet that Liverpool would get their arse kicked and you were right. Bent or crap goalie if memory serves. :)

Not very loyal are you. :P :P

That must be the third time in as many weeks that we have been spanked by Brussels...  ::)

Still, at least it's official. When it comes to international football, we're not just second best, or even shite. Oh no, we're really shite.

The 'hype' has gone to our heads unfortunately.

The teams we beat were poor.

Was looking to have a flutter on todays final . But I think France will win and, they are such strong favourites, that it's just not worth it.
So I decided to back Mbappe to score in 90 minutes. He has scored in three of the last four and Sky had boosted the price from 2/1 to 4/1. At least I'll have some interest in the match.

Can you imagine if we had won the cup ? our footballers would have gone from arrogant tossers on to the next level of tosserdom , Southgate would become a Sir , everyone else would be MBEs OBEs etc , doesn't bear thinking about  ;)

I shall try to avoid the game if I can, but I shall try and take the time for some sincere prayers, that France don't win.  ::)

Yea the odds on France winning are not a good bet. I decided to have a flutter on the final going to penalty shootout, but Croatia will then be down to 4 men, France would have used up all its goalies through injuries and the actual result wouldn't become clear until after the 27th Penalty by which time half the Stadium would be in Flames anyway through the Fans being frustrated..   :)

Bookie gave me some excellent Odds, so decided to have a couple of quid each way, reckon this time in a few of hours I could be a Millionaire.   :y

I had no interest in this game. The only way I was ever going to watch it was if I had a tenner riding on it. My man can still score up to the 90th minute, so it will keep me interested.
Idiotic penalty decision btw.
