I think he was hunted by the beeb, but Colin Murray does both the beeb and channel 5 , so maybe he did, Maybe Murray & Pearce have the same agent.
Pearce did do channel 5 and i agree he was better on the radio.
Morning all 
Well the post mortem continues on England - nothing good being said.
We can still turn it around but it will need a massive improvement in attitude and application - as well as that twonk Capello playing the right players in the right positions.

morning footy fans xxxx
Said this last night on the world cup thread.......rooney is an absolute arse for gobbing off about the england fans....these ppl have paid loads of money to watch that shower of shite and are entitled to voice their disapproval..........of course mr rooney is so well paid that he wouldn't have to save,remortgage,max out a credit card to pay for a trip like that.....unlike the thousands who support england and have done that.....he needs to shut his gob and not disrespect hardworking ppl who take years and years to earn what he does in a week
after the w/c....expect to see pictures of him 'relaxing' on holiday at some exclusive resort that costs about 5 grand a night.....he's detached from reality and has no right to mouth off about the england fans....he's a knobcheese

You're right Spongey, no doubt accompanied by worthless utterings from the gormless wife of his.

I don't know what Mr Rooney expects from the public, when they play such a boring game. I expect boring hurts their pride more, and it indeed was that.
I thought i was watching Cricket.

I can't remember seeing as bad an England performance as that Prolific - and I'm 48 and I've watched England since I was a kid

Same here and you arent much older than me. This is the worst England team I have seen and you have to remember I paid to watch Taylors side at wembley back in the day. They complained about being boooed too.The thing they forget is that its all very well playing boring negative football if you win. But the important ingredient in that recipe is winning if you dont then expect what you got.
I didnt realise we had a WC thread

Exactly! Allthough it's not good no-one minds so much if you go down fighting, but to play like puddings and lose 
Apparently Martin Petrov has had a medical at the Reebok, and Coyle is looking at signing James Vaughan from Everton...
They'd be two decent signings.

"Matthew Upson will start at centre back for England's match against Slovenia on Wednesday"
Afternoon all 
Do you prefer Dawson Disley? Or do you think Capello should have taken someone else to SA?
Well, based on who is in the squad, Upson would always be the last guy I would pick for similar reasons to my opposition of choosing Green in goal...
yeah, I guess you have to wonder when he picks 2 keepers and one defender from PL teams that have some of the worst records for goals conceded.
There are reports all over the web that the supposed Terry led player revolt didn't happen last night.
I can't say I'm surprised - a control freak like Capello just wouldn't have a meeting like that.

Actually, carrying on from Terry; amid reports that Deco has been reading the riot act to Quieroz (sp) and Anelkas foul mouth rant to Domenech, you have to wonder what the hell is going on at Chelsea that a lot of their players seem to think they are the manager
I'm pleased Ronaldo scored earlier for Portugal
.
As for England so many things going on behind the scenes that the players probably will find it hard to focus on Wednesday

Here we go......
COME ON ENGLAND!!!!!!!!
COME ON ENGLAND!!!!!!!!
I wish I hadn't had that sandwich and cheesecake earlier. I feel sick 
Good luck England. I'm feeling very nervous.
Ta Cologne. Me too. I just wish peeps would be quietly confident for once. I'm getting tired of all the shouting we're gonna win, we're gonna win and words to that effect
Pleased we are through
, much better performance and we got the result that was needed!.

Morning footy fans, so it's England v Germany on Sunday then.....
I thought it was a better performance yesterday, lets face it, it couldn't be worse! Would have preferred not to have to play Germany yet.
I see the French PM is asking questions regarding the French performance (or lack of it) during the group stages, he is supposed to be meeting Monsieur Henry I think it is today to talk about it!
My husband has just brought a Renault Megane for his job and I was trying to think of a name for it as I always name cars (it's a woman thing!) and yesterday decided to call it Henri, did consider Venger but Henri seems to suit the car!!!!! My husband has decided my new car will be called the Bollymobile! Yes I'm a huge Ashes fan.
Off to check on footy news on the BBC and then settle down for some tennis and footy ~ brilliant!

Newcastle want to sign Jlloyd Samuel, Andy O'Brien and Danny Shittu...
I remember Jlloyd Samuel well at Villa 
He was also featured on MTV Cribs, when he turned out to have 40-odd bottles of aftershave in his bathroom. Didn't stop him stinking up the pitch

Afternoon
Just imagine Shittu and Ponce in the same team
Someone posted this on Youtube - there must be a limit to how many times this clip can be used for footie related humour but it still made me laugh

How about Kaka as well? And the Argentine, Turdo? Darlington also used to have a Norwegian called Kaak. And he was! 
In that case we'd need THoilett of Blackburn Rovers..
WBA are going to be sponsored by Homeserve next season
.
Glad to see that James Milner will probably be in the squad on Sunday.
What a relief I only saw the Brazil vs Portugal game from the 60th minute.
Through gritted teeth congratulations to Germany, they were the better team by far.
As for England, what an awful and hapless performance and the players only have themselves to blame
.
The defence was opened so easily but the only consolation is that the question of goal line technology will be brought up again.

At least thats more time off for the players now before the start of the season.
Howdy footie folk Gutted England are out of the world cup 
But i shall now be backing my 2nd team! Come On Portugal

Oh my god, match officials are having a nightmare today. Mexico on the receiving end of clown like refereeing this time.
Again like before, I just don't know how the linesman or referee for that matter can't see this. Forget technology, if they can't see CLEAR incidents like that then they shouldn't be officiating at this level.
