    Are there any England fans on here who were actually alive when this event of huge magnitude occurred?

    Just wondering like. We take the piss out of Celtic fans and 1967.

    Time to move on lads. Its becoming something of a millstone.

    Im sure armchair fans like Alan Hansen and Mark Lawreson will have you believing again soon enough.

    It's the Celtic nations that need to move on

    No one else cares about potato famines and William Wallace

    They need to enjoy it since they have no chance of winning a major tournament again anytime soon.

    If only that Russian linesman from 1966 had been officiating last night. Rangers would still be top of the SPL. <grr>

    Azerbaijani apparently, though he's commonly known as 'the Russian linesman'.

    Was Azerbaijan not part of the Soviet Union when TV was black and white though?

    I was 5 years old in 1966. Don't really remember it tbh, but I do remember Mexico in 1970, when we led West Germany 2-0 with twenty minutes to go, then got beat 3-2. It's been nothing but heartbreak ever since really. Italia 90 counts as a near miss, and I really believed we'd win the Euros on home soil in 96, but we f*****g didn't did we?

    Yes, but that doesn't make it part of Russia. That's like saying Northern Ireland is part of England.

    What a ******ed thing to say. Greece won the Euros, Uruguay nearly got to the WC finals.

    You're just a jealous obese irishman, when Robbie Keane retires you'll be ****ed for ages <ok>

    No he's not. He is merely stating facts.

    England are guff and always will be.

    The Golden Generation indeed.

    Why are you such an arse hole? Did you not get enough love as a child?

    I suggest you visit a psychiatrist to talk about your issues. Perhaps someone on here can recommend a good one.

    My cousin wrote a movie about 1966. Imaginitively called 1966. It was ****. She knew it was **** too.

    She is dead now, so i guess i should say it was brilliant.... But i wont.
