Did I see John Terry on the pitch last night celebrating in full Iceland gear? Probably. Why shouldn't he? Bombed out of the England team because of malicious media attacks on his private life ( his business & nobody else's), I couldn't see an England defence with him at its heart being anywhere near as bad as it was last night.

Watching the Wales players celebrating our loss as much as their own win,that's why in any sporting event I hope they get stuffed. I usually like the Welsh. I lived there for 15 years and am a fellow Celt. I usually cheer them on but my god it gets my goat to see scenes like that, in professional sportsmen too. If you want to continue to have an inferiority complex as a nation, behave like that. If you don't, then maybe do something positive like voting to remain in the EU because of course you'd just be sh**ting all over yourselves if you voted to leave, given the massive subsidies you get....., oh, hang on... You Scottish then?

So your 'are you on drugs' supposed apology was just tongue in cheek, but my w**king over the pink bits could only be taken as a literal description of the actuality? Maybe you should get a sense of humour. You bit on what was a joke, that started it. Just saying. Best just laugh and move on. Yeah, I responded to his joke, but was talking about some related crap he posted in a different thread. I should have put it in that thread, too, so my error.

It's ok Henbury. Let it go. The guy obviously has a problem with me, why I don't know. Maybe I shouldn't type in such a harsh font?

Pity no one had a secret camera at the England teams hotel spying on the overpaid prima donnas who represented our country. Perhaps we would then know what the real reason for the subsequent debacle was!

I just have a problem with some of the sh** you've been posting about Brexit. Some of it has been total nonsense, like your ridiculous MSM post, and that petition you were referencing in your joke, was actually set up by a Brexitter neo-nazi, so that missed the target a bit.

Like I said I hope they get stuffed in any sporting event from tiddly winks to Rugby

I feel sorry for any England manager. The truth is until we have Premier Clubs fielding 6,7,8, or 9 English players in a team week in week out then we will never be any good. When the Prem was formed one of the aims it stated on it's charter was to "improve the England football team". I think that clubs that play 11 foreigners are not abiding by that and why should they. Sky love the idea that the league is international so they can sell the rights all over the world and the FA are frightened to say or do anything. Other countries have limits and that is what we need. Meanwhile players from all over the world want to come here just for the money. In many ways we are lucky at Rovers (as are other small clubs) in that we chat to the manager and players and we know that they are just like us, although probably younger, thinner and better at football. But we know they just turn up in their car and walk across the car park. Go to Spurs , Arsenal or infact any of them and watch them arrive in darkened out limos. A few months ago I stayed at the West Ham hotel, the room was a "box" on match days. In the players car park was a Lamborghini and when I asked one of the staff in the breakfast room who did it belong to he said it was Angelo Ogbanna (never heard of him) he said he had two, and would drive an alternative one for each game. That is West Ham, certainly not the richest club in the Prem, but it does show the scale of salaries they are paying, and to be honest it also says that despite all that money, it guarantees you nothing. Meanwhile the England team gets worse. I actually think the players individually are good enough and that's the one thing we did have at the Euros. What we didn't have is everything else that's needed. Bottle, determination, organisation, heart, a settled formation that suited the players, a settled side a motivational manager... The list goes on... Our players are much more talented than the Iceland players but that's the only thing we had over them and if that's all you've got you'll play crap struggle in every game and lose against anyone and everyone.

I don't think it's the 'money thing' either. I'm pretty sure the German, Spanish, Italian etc etc players also earn quite a good bundle, yet they turn up.

I cannot see France freezing when faced with Iceland. Although most of the Iceland team have been together since their Bejam days at youth level.
