  1. Brittain is a very good right back, not a left back. He gets the angles wrong and caught out of position and he's less effective going forward. Doesn't make any sense
  2. Harwood-Bellis is class. We're chasing shadows at the moment
  3. Ayala playing in an effective back 5 worries me.
  4. Good bowling and catching now finish the job
  5. At least we took part.
  6. You have to say releasing Raya was a mistake; it seemed obvious at the time and it's been proved true with his success at Brentford. He made some mistakes as all young goalkeepers do but the talent was there and it was clear he was going to develop into a top goalkeeper. When you consider who was taking his place at the time he left and the subsequent appalling replacements Raya's departure has to go down as one of Tony's worst decisions
  7. There's been 12 cricket World Cups England have won 1 I know you struggle with simple concepts but that's poor
  8. Light bulb moment. 10 watts
  9. OK, amended The tactics of endlessly playing the ball around at the back and it causing us problems is a fact, not opinion. The defeats at Luton, Reading and Coventry and one of two others were a direct result of defenders giving the ball away.

  11. England's record is very poor. Glad you agree
  12. Australia 5 wins India, West Indies 2 wins England 1 win (first appearance in final in 27 years) Abysmal
  13. There was a world before Gareth Southgate England rugby.... one World Cup win. Look it up England football over the past 60 years....one World Cup win. Look it up England cricket....one World Cup win. Look it up Abysmal I'd say
  14. England haven't won the T20 yet. The football and cricket and rugby teams' record in big tournaments is abysmal For a supposed "major" sporting nation we are very poor and consistently punch below our weight. That's the reality
  15. It was silly because England's sporting record is so poor and doesn't bear any relation to the cloud cuckoo-land you inhabit
  16. Too many players out of form and Southgate seems to have lost his way England could under-perform expectations in a World Cup that few people want or are looking forward to
  17. Liverpool or Man City away. If there's a virtually unwinnable tie we'll get it.
  18. Hopefully, but bitter experience shows it's best to be cautious - unlike Chaddy's rose-tinted flag waving nonsense. Which England and which Rovers will turn up? The ones that were so lame against Ireland or at Coventry or the teams that played so well today and at West Ham England slaughtered the All Blacks in the rugby WC semi-final and were favourites to beat SA in the final but were absolutely dreadful. The same could happen on Sunday That's why last night and today was so enjoyable. and why it's best not to expect the same in he next match
  19. Silly post England are just as capable of losing by 10 wickets
  20. Staggering. England don't do easy victories. After losing to Ireland too Hope it's not like the rugby WC..... brilliant against NZ in the semis then not turn up in the final Great win though. I'm sure the convicts enjoyed watching
  21. 52-0 off 5..... good start!
  22. Pandya probably won it for India. 169 is a tough task for England
  23. From the absolute pits of a showing at Coventry last week to the excitement and character of last night Unfortunately I chose to attend the former and not the latter Never mind: it shows the highs and lows of football and why the game is so intoxicating and why against all logic we keep coming back for more The cup draws are rarely kind to us: we always seem to draw the "big boys" or difficult opponents and it's about time we drew one of the "minnows" at home and got ourselves in a cup quarter-final for the first time since the Kean debacle at Cardiff I'm dreaming of 2002 all over again.
  24. I stayed away and we won!! Should do it more often Lincoln, Gillingham, Charlton or MK Dons next please
