I'm not sure anyone thinks that tbh mate. I still have them as slight favourites but think it's as close to 50/50 as it has been a long time.

Also not convinced we have a 3rd gear but I'm hopeful that we might get a more space against a better side whose first thought won't be to defend.

Wouldn't be surprised at all if it went to pens.

Pretty sure you've made your penultimate sentence up.

Have I **** made it up Libby lad

60% of you thinks we are gonna win because ‘Jules Rimet still gleaming...la...la...la...la...ENGLAND!’ <laugh>

I agree with what the other 40% sees though

prove it
 
I thought you took exception to those being excited about the game in general. Not those who think we'll win.

Fair enough if that's the case. I don't know how it's going to go but I'm not ready to write us off completely this time. Got to have a bit of hope.
You forgot to say sorry for calling me a clown bro

Yeah hope...exactly what I meant

‘3 lions on a shirt, Jules Rimet still gleaming’ that’s hope right there and constitutes around 60% of your thinking

I can’t help but focus on the 40

I’ll be taking boring bastard Gareth to the cleaners if we get done in the one game the heat was on and the minerals were nowhere to be found.

That should read 60% of 'people' not 'you'.

I've not said we're gonna win.
 
You've made the claim that people said Southgate played a masterclass against Scotland.

Find one poster who said that.

mate I saw plenty of yous lapping it up how we are ‘sat top of the group’, ‘still haven’t conceded’ after that shambolic performance against the Scots. To me that suggests masterclass, a plan executed to perfection so we remain at the top of the table.

What's football without hope? That's what it's all about init?

I hope Saints might win a trophy every season. I'm intelligent enough to know it won't happen though. One trophy in over 130 years tells me that lol.

Nope because every person said we were awful and it was a poor performance.


Find one person who said it was a masterclass and I'll change my title to 'Up the Spurs' til the end of the tournament.

Some people were just happy to see where we end up rather than losing their **** over one game.

So you agree its not really a good measure of how strong a team is then.<laugh><doh>

What? You’ve literally just laughed at yourself. Fixture odds aren’t influenced by betting patterns at this level ya thick ****.

Or you could STFU.
 
I can understand looking logically at football but I could never do it 100% of the time.

It's an emotional sport and if it wasn't then I wouldn't be anywhere near as invested to it. Hopes and dreams are what makes the game fun imo, even when they're dashed the vast majority of the time if you support Saints/England lol.

Time and a place for both outlooks. Win this one and I'll be fully in the 'coming home' one and I'll be gutted when it doesn't.

I'm certainly gonna not get excited about a huge game just cos we might not win. Bollocks to that. What will be will be.

It’s the circle of being an England fan, you go from complete apathy, to euphoric raging hardons in the space of about 2 weeks then back to apathy after a knockout.
