In the second half, you could see what was coming. My heart sank as I saw extra time approaching. Sterling is never going to score, Kane spent more time in midfield than attack, and I couldn't see where an England goal would come from ! England did better than expected.....but, as usual, we expected more ! true mate, they could have killed the game of 1st 1/2 , they didnt and payed the price , you always do in football if you dont take your chances . from watching this tonight , they would have lost to France , they had to up there game against better team and couldnt 2nd 1/2 . thought Kane was very poor tonight , and sterling was never going to score up front . we done well we qualified , got out of our group , and beat easy teams , then above as said run out of steam, and thats it. i am fookin low , carnt watch the telly , and wont read any papers , to much fookin hype as usual fook it .!!! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You'll see those kind of thing every saturday at amatuer level for football,rugby and mma fighters who do it for fun not for 200,000 a week. Go and watch a good standard of amatuer rugby.18 stone men getting tackled by a scrum half and then going to work in the evening and they don't come close to be labeled warrior.good professional at best.

Not bad Yep England did, but the only reason we got there was luck. We have not played well in the tournament, scraped by in several matches and beaten by a team who outplayed us in all areas. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Boxings the same . Football the players take the piss. Refs should warn them before the game and then the moment they start Should card a few to stop the cheating and the antics as it's getting to bad nowdays . Depends on the ref, some refs in this cup were outstanding I thought. Back in the day Collina never had any crap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Personally I thought most of the referees were ok to good! I agree about the crowding and arguing with refs though, and some players have actually been carded for this, but perhaps FIFA needs to crack down more in this area!

Then Walker gets a yellow for fook all . Yeah, refs make mistakes mate......but on the whole he let the game flow. If football referees ever got like rugby referees the game would be as boring as rugby ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
