Well ---- at the same time we welcomed the return of Englands primadonna "heroes", 7 real heroes returned home, each adorned with the Union flag. These footballers get in a week what our servicemen get in 8 months. 

Edit -- meant to type 8 YEARS !!! 

the one thing i don't blame the players for is taking money from clubs stupid enough to pay them ridiculous amounts........
club: "here's £150k a week"
player: "nah, just give me £10k a week and keep the rest"

Just take a moment to apply some rational thought here!

If money is the reason for England's dismal performance, then how come every team is not playing as badly?  English players are not singled out for big salaries - the amount of money is the same accross Europe - and most of Brazil and Argentina's players are receipt of it!

Did you hear Englands got one more International to play against Iceland if they win it will put them thru to the next round where they will be playing either Asda or Tescos
