Oh! Gawd! My son upset me this morning, he says he's given up on England coz he doesn't want his heart broken later. These bastards are destroying an 8 year old's dreams 
Come on England...and Come on Ghana 

They're doing it to all of us Suzy. I've had more pride watching New Zealand and some of the smaller teams playing their hearts out than I have with that bunch,

I find it hard to support England because of the players, the FA and the manager and I've felt like that for a long time - but I'm English so I desperately want them to do well

I agree Veggie the team just don't seem to have the want or heart to win...

what's your gut feeling on the result?

Gawd knows Lal. I fancy USA to get at least a point off Algeria but we need to win. A lot will depend on Capellos selection and formation - that will be interesting.
We surely can't be worse than France were yesterday

come on Algeria

On the plus side he seems a bright lad, it took me ten years longer to become cynical though we did have a better team back then.

Deutschland, Deutschland

England 3 Slovenia 0. I kinda wish England would get the chop though. 
Exit followed by a bear.

I know Capt. (and veggie) but I don't want a resigned and cynical 8 year old moping around the house  Anyway the rest of us here still believe...so let's hope Taboo's 3-0 prediction is correct 

Ater such piss poor performnces only winning the whole thing wil redeem the lot of them.just winnng tday isn't good enough.

agreed croc

I am Slovenia.
I'm beginning to feel a little unloved. 

be strong brisket

i am Algeria and i survived

Thanks barney for your encouraging words.
I'll consider you to be an inspiration to me. 

On the plus side, no one here has mistaken you for Slovakia yet

Good thought Veggie.
Every cloud has a ,,,,etc

Come on England show us what you're made of.

If we can't beat this lot we deserve to go out.
