    No, they really are. But they are not a team. That's down to the manager for selecting them and coaching them. Selection was his problem. Then he badly coached them as well.

    The FA wasted 2 years by keeping Hodgson after the World Cup. A ****ing deaf blind and dumb person would know that.

    I can't explain what the **** happened there.

    The team looked truly lost after we went 2-1 down. Rooney did not look like he wanted to be there, to be fair most of them didn't. I blame solely on Hodgson, he's ****ing clueless. There looked to be no preparation for tactics Iceland would play, and our play for that matter.

    I hope Hodgson falls on his arse and smashes his coccyx.

    I believe Iceland are the smallest country ever to qualify for a major tournament. This was English football's worst moment ever.

    Time to remember my distant Welsh ancestry I think.

    Yep, fully agree. The players didn't help themselves, but Hodgson's tactics were terrible.

    Rugby aside, England has embarrassed itself over the last 5 days or so.

    Well, that was ****ing dreadful.

    Fair play to Iceland, but we should be winning that sort of match. ****ing clueless - Woy's gotta go after that.

    I hate all this "shock result" crap. Not a shock in the slightest. Very patronising to Iceland.

    Who'd have thought that Wales would be the only home nations team left? Bet England still get more air-time than Wales during the rest of the tournament :rolleyes:

    No need for an inquest. Someone find a contact they knew at the FA and give me 2 hours with them.

    I'm fed up of saying it every two years we're at a tournament. It is not Roy Hodgson (he is **** though). We need to start developing players properly. We just don't do it.

    Have you not watched Hodgson's England? For the past however many years. Iceland beat Netherlands twice in qualification and are unbeaten in this tournament.

    But it's been the same for generations with different players and different coaches. It is more than that.

    I thought Iceland beating Austria was a shock so tonight's result is right off the scale.

    Would not be at all surprised if France put 4 or 5 past them in the quarter final.

    Oh I agree,they genuinely believe they are better than they are,and none of them seem to give a toss despite the crocodile tears. Overpaid twats.
