Whatever happens, at least we'll have done no worse than the French.
Hum Onn
Hiiin Laaah
GOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLL!!
Cunning tactics by Capello, to play one of the strikers who can actually score goals!
100% better than Algeria game already. Gerrard!! Aww.
COME ON SLOVENIA!
F**k. That was scary.
A decent performance against a poor side and I expect the commentariat will now go overboard.
England are going to win the World Cup.

Many people calling for England team to be knighted. Impossible to disagree.

Clumsily. With a blunt sword.
Just listened to an interview with Joe Cole.
If you missed it, allow me to help.
'y'know, it's well, y'know, it's well,y'know, it's well,like we played y'know, it's well,it's great to play in a y'know, it's well,whoever it is well, y'know, it's well,y'know, in the knockout stage it's well,y'know, it's well,whoever.'
So that's clear then.
Well worth a knighthood. Gets my vote, y'know, it's well.
One thing that the World Cup has reminded me of is what an absolutely awful dirge the English national anthem is. No wonder 'our' teams often find it hard to perform, they've probably been depressed listening to the bloody thing.
Also, being an athiest and a republican, I find the lyrics hard to take. The nature of 'God' saving the 'Queen' means absolute bugger all to me.
Still, I guess I'm in a minority here, right?
