International Thread Part Trois

[fatletiss]

I've checked the lyrics and I'm changing my campaign - Jerusalem it is

Bring me my bow of burning gold!
Bring me my arrows of desire!
Bring me my spear: o clouds unfold!
Bring me my chariots of fire!
I will not cease from mental fight;
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
Till we have built Jerusalem
In England’s green and pleasant land.

I'm welling up ...

We sung this at my wedding.

 

[fatletiss]

William Blake too. One of history's greatest ever Englishmen.

Better than Markus Liebherr?

 

[Beef]

I think Townsend has been picked because he has looked bright when he has come on for England in the last few games but I don't understand the Jones one as he gives us no width and in the opposition half he always passes backward. A decent start but set pieces have been poor and the ref is whistle happy!

Andy Townsend I am on about, but Andros isn't much better (atm).

 

[Paddy Podped]

This must be Andy Townsend's last game for ITV?

 

[Saintmagic]

I guess Townsend must actually be pretty good. Seeing as EVERY time he gets the ball he cuts in onto his left and shoots and people still can't stop him doing it.

Or maybe they just let him as he scores about 1 in 100 attempts

 

[Archers Road]

Better than Markus Liebherr?

Did Marcus Liebherr storm the gates of Newgate gaol?

The games' in a bit of a lull.

 

[fatletiss]

One nil

 

[- Doing The Lambert Walk]

GOAL: Slovenia 1-0 England - Novakovic 39'

 

[Archers Road]

Horrible defending.

 

[Beef]

That was ****ing awful defending. People moan about the defending in the Women's World Cup...

Fair enough. Keep him above Markus.

No lull now.

 

[Paddy Podped]

Hold on, wasn't that the 35 year old who has no pace?

 

[Osvaldorama]

Lol. All came from a Jones throw in [HASHTAG]#wheresclyne[/HASHTAG]

 

[saintsfcfan]

England are a joke.

 

[tomw24]

Come on Slovenia!

 

[Archers Road]

England are a joke.

A sense of humour is certainly required.

 

[shoot_spiderman]

We sung this at my wedding.

Its a rip-roaring crowd-pleaser, I applaud you.

But has your sword ever had to sleep in your hand, I wonder?

 

[Osvaldorama]

In all honesty we've been the better team, and made one mistake. If this was saints everyone would be saying "back the lads, we'll turn it around second half", but when it's England everyone moans. I really don't get it

 

[Paddy Podped]

Just waiting for the chant 'We are Slovenia, we're taking the piss' to start up....
