I have been invited to watch this at a friend's house. She has invited three women over who I don't know. I am not sure why I am the only man invited. I will keep you all updated. :avbpray:
 
It is just before Scotland v England in the Euro’s Group game.

Kane goes into the English changing room to find all his team mates looking a bit glum.

"What's up?" he asks.

"Well, we're having trouble getting motivated for this game. We know it's important but it's only Scotland. They're shite and we can't be bothered".

Kane looks at them and says "Well, I reckon I can beat these by myself, you lads go down the pub."

So Kane goes out to play Scotland by himself and the rest of the English team go off for a few pints. After a few jars they wonder how the game is going, so they get the landlord to put the teletext on. A big cheer goes up as the screen reads "England 1 - Scotland 0 (Kane 10minutes)". He is beating Scotland all by himself!

Anyway, a few more pints later and the game is forgotten until someone remembers "It must be full time now, let's see how he got on". They put the teletext on.

"Result from the Stadium "England 1 (Kane 10 minutes) - Scotland 1"(Angus McShagnasty 89 minutes)".

They can't believe it, he has single handedly got a draw against Scotland!!

They rush back to the Stadium to congratulate him. They find him in the dressing room, still in his gear, sat with his head in his hands. He refuses to look at them.

"I've let you down, I've let you down."

"Don't be daft, you got a draw against Scotland , all by yourself. And they only scored at the very very end"

"No, No, I have, I've let you down...

I got sent off after 12 minutes"
 
Sorry lads i'm full out supporting Scotland today, on balance I have to support them as my money is riding on it and given family connections/upbringing. Even got a Scotland top on now. I'll support England for every other game.

I thought Ian Wright was the only one who spoke fairly about the game. Like me, he didn't understand the substitutions, the lack of creativity in midfield, and no service to Kane.
My recollection of England performances in tournaments is that performances in the group stages are usually pretty mediocre and if they move onto the knockouts, then it comes together for a better showing. However, not sure that this is going to happen, this time around. Southgate doesn't seem to have a clue on how to get the best out of his squad or is flexible in changing things around.
Finishing second in the group would not be a disaster, in fact, it would be a blessing.
 
Selecting two DM's and having no-one to connect the midfield to the attack is bad.
Bringing off Foden, bad.

I've seen nothing from Southgate that gives me any confidence in his ability. The guy has probably the best attacking talent in depth in the competition and he can find 1 goal in two games.
 
Proper game this one. This is what football is all about. Don’t disappoint Scotland let’s have a bit of a Barney and love in you motherfuckers. ❤️
Hope we Fucken destroy the fascist cunts. Break some bones and some hearts. 3-1. Two from McGinn, a Pickford OG and a consolation goal coming from some overrated cunt like Stones
 
Scotland will put everything into this game. They’re the Wet Spam of European international teams. Getting a point off us would make their campaign.
 
There's a lack of mental strength in England generally. It is a country defined by and regarded for its weakness. The minds of the English players are full of that sludge. The media tries to mask the national fear for confronting its post-imperial mediocrity by fanning plumes of arrogance. But that smokescreen hardly obscures the palsy of the English mind. That worthless absence of identity instead filled with racist bile.

When our Scottish men, sent to represent their stateless nation, remind those weak English boys of their nothingness, England will crumble.

ETERNAL WAR
