They might notice that. The Aussies can bitch rightly about things like that, but there is NO CONTROL over the weather, so we can get away with that one.
We need to regroup and get ready for a fresh assault on the Aussies tomorrow morning.
Hello Coop83!
I wish to join the English Gentlemans club, where one may sit and talk over a lovely steaming cup of tea, as English gentlemen do. I do not know much about sport, but I am distressed by our tragic defeat from North Ireland, and one does hope that we will regain our confidence in time for the World Cup. But we must look ahead to many English victories in the future!
Random fact:Led Zeppelin's song "Houses of the Holy" did not feature on the album of the same name (it was on "Physical Graffiti"). Oh yeah, and post count+1.

I say sack Sven. He's a disgrace (recently on the pitch) and off the pitch (Nancy?)
Get Sam Allerdyce in. He's great, and he's actually English too.
Plus after we lost to Ireland I don't even want us to Qualify. I feel so ashamed. And honestly believe that we'd just embarrass ourselves in front of the world.

*Sniff*Sniff* does one smell footbal? FOOTBAL? Tis not ours anymore! It has been ransacked by those theiving frogs and brazillians! At least when americans are good at a sport, they think of it themselves eh what! No, no English have sports like rugger and cricket! What was the ozzie score at the end of the day? One missed it.
Cheer up old chap. We must feel confident in ourselves in order to have a chance of winning. I know I'll pour out a nice cup of tea. That should make you feel better.
[pours tea]
Do you feel better now?

Sorry to double-post, but one did not realise that you had posted just before me, and you would become upset upon my mention of football. Sorry but I did also miss the rugby results.

Good call, but I think Steve McLaren is heir to Sven's throne.

That's not the English way to think. Sack Sven, but we still want to qualify IN SPITE of what he has done.

I think everyone is being a bit quick to point the blame at Sven, One has to remember he lead us to a 5-1 victory over Germany and has set england records for the most games won by England in sucession. We narrowly missed out in Euro to the home side and we went out to the best team in the world last world cup around. One admits as off late he has become somewhat Irrational but im sure it's just a temporal blip(I hope)

The Germany win was five years ago. And yes Sven has a good record. But he also has a poor record. And with a team like England has we should be invinsible.
Robinson - Not Brilliant. Not terrible.
G. Neville - Great right back/organiser.
Ferdinand - One of the best in the world.
Terry - Same as above.
Cole - Great left back. Good attacker too.
Beckham - Mega famous, world superstar, amazing passer (not my choice for Captain however...that'd be Terry for me).
Lampard - English player of the year!
Gerrard - Captained the European Cup winners.
Cole/Wright-Phillips - Both fast, both skilled, both dangerous. Both Chelsea players.
Owen - Worldclass striker.
Rooney - Worldclass striker.
Its an amazing squad yet we struggle in matches. Now that can only be blamed to the manager. He hasn't handled the issues well. And Beckham doesn't scream 'Do what I say or I'll rip you a new one.' Its too forgiving. Terry would sort everyone out, I mean, he didn't do anything bad for Chelsea.
Also as the Portugal (and France) games went. The problem was, we scored first, and just defender. They just attacked and attacked till we couldn't help but conceed. Now thats bad managing. We should have been counter attacking and putting pressure on them. And we didn't. And we lost, both due to the fact we were just overwhelmed by the constant attacks.
Plus Sven isn't even English. Thats like McDonalds manager working at Subway. It just doesn't work. And I mean if Sven was a model manager it could be over looked. But lets face it, Sven is no Mourinho.

I think the fellow has too many personal problems clouding his judgement and who really thinks it's the manager alone to blame. I don't mean the players, for some reason the coaches and others never seem to be accountable to scutiny. I think in the football world they are responsible for 50% of what happens on the pitch. In essense yes Sven has gone down in my estimation recently but I don't think it's grounds for sacking
Even if we did lose to the paddys!!!!

As soon as we stopped playing against France last year I wanted Sven out. Its just getting more and more cemented in my mind at the moment.

aha! i returned from my rugby match just a while ago. the other team was, shall we say, more "crazy". but in the end we managed to show them a good account of ourselves, winning 14-7 and coming back from a very early converted try. jolly good to get back into the rugby, eh wot!
and the old english weather seems to be thundering mightily. it soudns very violent indeed.
