    "Until they earn my respect, until they show me they stand a chance of winning something I can't be bothered with the overpaid nancyboys!"
    "We're never gonna get beyond the quarter finals of a major tournament so what's the point?!"
    Surely if we took these attitudes towards our clubs we would rightly be labelled glory-hunters?!?

    Club-
    No matter how bad the team is, you stick by them!
    Championship mid-table? You've got to stick it out mate!
    Glen Roeder as Manager? tough luck, but stick by the youth players on display!
    League One? sell-out matches, record gates. etc etc.

    [[/QUOTE]

    Absolutely correct!

    Afraid I'm going to have to disagree with you. Lampard, like Gerrard, has never been as good for England.

    Lumplard, actually I'm quite glad it's not on Sky (for once) as we'd have to listen to Redknapp whittle on about what a 'top top player' his cousin is.

    If they banned that fecking sheffield weds band, it would make it a lot easier to watch, I'd find it hard not to shove his trumpet up his trumpet if I had the misfortune to sit near them.

    Andrew crofts, what a legend, has marked Rooney well tonight

    We have been dreadful since Lampard has gone off. Why do people hate him so much?

    What a miss from Earnie!!!

    I thought Morrison led the line weel until he went off. Didn't get too many sniffs of goal, but he put himself about nicely.

    Morison and Crofts very quiet tonight. Good that they both avoided injury. Didn't know that Crofts wasn't actually born in Wales.

    Lampard was so quiet that I wasn't sure if he was playing tonight on several occasions.

    Moro would have buried that chance earnie missed! Crofts had a very good game i thought.. It was blatently obvious that moro needed a partner upfront with him cause he got no service and no help what so ever! Atleast he gets to return to line-up with the legend that is GRANT HOLT <ok>

    Yeah, I would have thought Earnshaw and Morison up front would have been good as Morison was deserted up front on his own.

    Also, 4th in the world? Really??!

    When you read the talentless rubbish that posters on here write, you fear for the survival of the English language, let alone their cruddy football team.

    Same old England tonight. Fortunately having dual nationality means I can actually be selective when it comes international football. Even though I live in England, I feel so much more passion for Switzerland. The Swiss have an up and coming side as shown by Shaqiri's outstanding hat trick tonight (I'm sure some of you will remember his cracker v England). The oldest player in the Swiss side was 27, the future's bright considering how well the youth teams have done recently. Surprisingly Euro 2012 would be the 1st time since 2002 the Swiss haven't qualified for the major summer tournaments... England can't say so much. At least the playoffs are a distinct possibility. Didn't appreciate Adrian Chilles' snide comment at half time when he suggested Switzerland - Bulgaria was the dullest game imaginable. Tell you what Adrian, it was a lot more interesting than many many an England game!
    I thought Crofts was fairly quiet but he looked impressive on the ball. He played himself well out of trouble and rarely lost possession. Morison did well too but desperately lacked a partner up top.

    Morro would have scored the earnie chance

    Also he would have given john Terry more trouble if they had played two up front for sure

    NCFC Canaries England are crap but compared to the Swiss?.... You have Mr Blatter anyway, what a wonderful human being he will be at the finals of every tournament if your team don t qualify.
