You all got me to thank for that. I had a Judas bet on Slovakia to win, on the basis that I never win. 5-1 and £20 in, finger hovering over the cash out for £105 and I held my nerve.
Another Southgate master class. Haters gonna hate 🤣 Toney was great when he came on though.
Really felt like we were going flop out without much of a go but a couple of great goals (Slovakia goal was decent too). Another case of doing just enough, barely. The Swiss will be a proper test
Terrible performance again, poor substitutions that turned out OK, very little goal threat, all made OK by the feel good of having scraped a win we barely deserved.
Only slight consolation is we’re still in it, and we can’t continue being this bad. At some point surely something has to click.
No hubris at all, incredibly lucky to be where we are.
Oh the agony of watching the clock tick down in the 5 mins of extra time after the first 90 thinking “that’s it, we’re out” and then to actually score. Actually score! ‘kin unbelievable Jeff. Engerland!
Landlord was Slovakian, still rooting for England coz he knows which side his bread is buttered, I still felt very sorry for his young lad in full Slovak kit 🥲
