Match Day Thread General matchday thread.

We have a better chance than Germany which is a start.

 

Now, now ... calm down Sweet cheeks

Nothing wrong with differences in opinions ... I guess a good analogy would be that, if we were both Manchester United fans, I'd be waxing lyrical about George Best, whilst you'd be more for Nicky Butt ...

 

Spain have been great to watch ... looking forward to them against France ... hoping football is the winner

 

England are the worst side left in though... the winner of the other semi will demolish England or the Dutch whoever gets through.

The draw was so lopsided.

 

Probably yeah but we’re in it. We’re just as in it as if we’d played brilliantly to get this far.

 

I actually don't want England to win because I don't want to die knowing Southgate has a statue.

 

Not really a relevant comparison at all as most of yours aren’t but Butt won six titles and a European Cup. Obviously he wasn’t a better player than Best but as said, it’s not a relevant analogy.

 

I want you to die knowing Southgate has a statue.

 

We will hopefully settle this on Wednesday sir.

 

We’re 5/2 to win it so we obviously do have a chance by the way. Not odds I’ll be taking but even if that’s under-priced we very clearly do have a shot.

 

but England are not the worst side, they are just the least entertaining side, but I wasn't complaining about that last night when we were victorious...

I'm saying the worst of the semi finalists

 

Everyone of my generation and yours, also remembers that great Netherlands side of 1974. And how they lost to West Germany in the final. England have also had their share of glorious failure, and I can confirm that it's hugely over rated. In fact, it's ****.

 

No one is saying you have to watch them bro.

It's on 8pm Wednesday, I will be sitting down and having no expectation...

If they bore me and lose...I'll just have a sleep...

If they bore me and win, you can be sure I'll be letting everyone know about it.

 

I'm around a decade into my anti Southgate crusade though mate, so I have to keep going no matter what.

If England win I will say they would have won the last 4 competitions without him.. something along those lines.

 

but that's what happens in history, people make stuff up.

 

Is for me - you seem to think your opinions really matter and are definitive - they really aren't ... just rather copious and mostly overly self congratulatory...

I'm happy to stick to valuing entertaining exceptional brilliance over mundane mediocre success every time ... but each to their own

 

Are you seriously lecturing anyone on feeling self-important?

Yes I’d rather win a dour match on penalties than lose a brilliant game 4-3. You just have to be contrary on everything.

 

Mental gymnastics are inevitable in football so I agree, but do you think England will win and if not would you like to see Southgate leave?
