England v Germany - Tuesday 29/06 - 17:00

[campanula]

I just want England to be brave

 

[JimW]

Not got any passing going

 

[campanula]

Germany is going to press us like fuck

 

[May Kasahara]

We look like a right bunch of numpties

 

[BristolEcho]

I've never seen someone lie down behind the wall...

Was a new one for me too but my Dad said it's common.

 

[Kaka Tim]

this isnt working. need to take the game to them.

 

[fucthest8]

Is there anyone who can sort you a beer out while you wait?

I did ask. Was told "the strongest thing we've got is coffee and that's decaf"

 

[campanula]

on you go Saka

 

[campanula]

first attacking moment

 

[JimW]

Card for rice seemed harsh, hope that's not going go bite us later.

 

[campanula]

Maguire nearly fluffed it

 

[dessiato]

Germany to win

 

[campanula]

This is grim.

 

[blairsh]

I did ask. Was told "the strongest thing we've got is coffee and that's decaf"

what about drugs? They must have something suitable, surely?

 

[campanula]

FFS, guaranteed to make a mistake fucking about like this negative shit

 

[May Kasahara]

This is grim.

My football-mad boss is sending emails during play, that's how grim it is

 

[Lord Camomile]

It is interesting that Gareth Southgate is generally attributed with the "We were expecting Winston Churchill and instead we got Iain Duncan-Smith" quote, regarding Sven Goran Eriksson's performance during half-time of the WC quarter-final against Brazil in 2002, given his generally conservative approach to managing England.

 

[Sprocket.]

I did ask. Was told "the strongest thing we've got is coffee and that's decaf"

I’ve got tea, they don’t do Bovril.

 

[blairsh]

Nice effort that. More of that pls.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Bloody hell, Sterling with a curling effort from well outside the box?! Decent effort, too

 

[campanula]

not a bad shot

 

[campanula]

Still, if we can build a bit

 

[Lord Camomile]

Get out of the way, Neuer, for fuck's sake

 

[campanula]

Shaw not doing enough

 

[ruffneck23]

not bad at all from Sterling, much more of this please

 

[Steel Icarus]

So slow to get forward. So, so slow.

 

[fucthest8]

what about drugs? They must have something suitable, surely?

They're quite tight on morphine iirc and I don't fancy being in the kind of pain required to be allowed it.

 

[ruffneck23]

Still, if we can build a bit

Build back better ?

 

[May Kasahara]

Getting in amongst it now, that's good.

 

[Lord Camomile]

So slow to get forward. So, so slow.

Sterling looked worryingly like he just wasn't entirely sure what to do on that last break (after Maguire was fouled).

Particularly someone with his skillset, you want him bombing on at the defenders scaring the shite out of 'em.
