Klunk - 2 world cup winners, both ranked in the top 10.. Not that easy. And wrong tense - they're struggling in an easy group 😉

It's the poison chalice tho ain't it. Jose knew it ,scolari knew it, nobody who wants to remain credible will ever risk their name with that job!

Is that Rooney with the Tam O'Shanter and the Saltire up there.

Post Mortems are funny - they were better (at least at scoring) and we we worse at putting the ball in the net and stopping it at the other end. What do we expect? Why the sense that we were unlucky or not even second best?

Better team won both matches.

most off England wouldn't stand for Jose's style of football but his teams don't usually concede that kind of goal.

Another thing that's upset me tonight is my 9 year old lad who's not really into football has stuck by my side watching with the same sorry face I had. He's really got World Cup fever and I don't think a dose of England heartache is going to cure it. I hope he suffers less than I have over the last 24 bitter years!!

this is better than going out on penalties in semi's, knowing you were the better team.

@ Wrightyson Might be worth getting the young un a sense of perspective then at least he'll be less sad? Anyway, over and out.

I was an hour behind on +1 telly as I've been doing a bit of wood work in the garden with some beer and sunshine.

Picked up the phone and there was the score and I just noticed Spain is out too. Glad I decided to enjoy the sun based on what I am watching.

Something tells me I won't be watching England in the next round.

Just watching the last few painful minutes

wrightyson, as I was correctly advised when I reacted to somebody trolling the thread last night, if you ignore them, they go away. No sense in giving them the erection they seek by getting a reaction. Tbf, the footie fans have kept themselves well corralled into this thread in the same way as the rugby fans and F1 fans do in the respective threads. Some folk can't help themselves though. If you ignore them they'll just have to find something else to which to masturbate tomorrow.

I'm not pleased, clearly. And I'm not optimistic. But it's not a done deal yet.

I don't see it as inconceivable, in fact not even unlikely that Italy will win both their games. So Uruguay will end on 3 points and a goal difference of at best -2 (currently -1 and will get worse). Our current gd is -2 so if we beat Costa Rica we de facto improve that and therefore will be better than Uruguay.

So for Costa Rica. If they lose to Italy tomorrow even 1-0, they'll be on 3 pts and gd +1. If we then beat them on Tuesday, by 2 goals, our gd will increase to zero and theirs drops to -1, and we'd qualify.

Like I said, these are not impossible outcomes, and I could even imagine Italy beating them by more. As long as it's not 6-4 or something daft!!!

It's not in our hands, clearly, but we aren't out.

Half English/Half German.

...and Greek in-laws.

So just the three.

Giz a kiss, and I'll pull for the Scottish if they qualify in the future. 😀

It is very hard to see you winning it, even if the gods are kind, and, you get out
