    Dandruff and an itchy scalp are a small price to pay for revenge that will last a lifetime. I once saw Carl Ikeme prentend to be a goalkeeper and he would have done better than that great Pillock. Still not all his fault as we could have at least consider the crazy option of score more than them.

    Wage caps with big bonuses for successful internationals. nothing for the Something needs to change or history is going to repeat itself. Don't even get me started on the FA who act as though they bare no responsibility each and every time, more heads please and soon.

    It's not that I'm angry, just enough with the repetitive disappointment, Seriously if we qualify for Russia we should have a poll on which first round game we will throw the towel in, or after how many minutes.

    Till next time....

    Can anyone see what that serial pillock Greg Dyke brings to the party? The man whose main claim to fame is f*cking Roland Rat and has been living on the success of that ever since has done f*ck all but come out with bollox throughout his 'reign'. From his crackpot 'B' teams joining the league through to saying we'd win the World Cup in ten years he's been nothing but a gobby embarrassment. All he does is antagonise, at the World Cup draw making his throat-slitting motion when we the draw was completed really instilled confidence and his contract remarks about Hodgson at the start of this tournament show what a complete c*nt he is. The sooner he buggers off the better.

    The FA need a clear-out of their top heavy executives and replace them with proper football people, David Gill would be a good start for the top job, get in people who know what the game is about and will shape the game from top to bottom. It won't happen overnight but we've had so many false dawns I think a few more years to get a structure in place would be a small price to pay. The biggest scandal of the current regime is that only Ross Barkley is a tournament winner for England of all those who were selected for the Euros and he wasn't even used. What has happened to all the others from that U17 winning squad?...

    No surprise there.

    I really hope Belgium take them apart!

    Not very likely though is it? Iceland haven't played a decent side yet - we were crap against them.

    Well, France were not great against Ireland or in there group matches. Iceland will be the best side that they have faced.

    I expect a narrow French victory, but extra time or penalties would be no surprise.

    LOVE THIS
    Bobby Charlton was asked how he thought the England team of '66 would have fared against Iceland. " I think we'd have won 1-0 " he replied. "Only 1-0?" Said the reporter. "Yes," said Bobby. "Most of us are in our 70's now!"

    A similar story was doing the rounds about van Gaal's United versus Busby's, but raises a smile, Vern.
