The worst thing is if you speak to about 90% of English people we don't think we have a chnace. then of course Sky, BBC et al manage to find a few loonys who think we will win it and it gets reported as everyone thinking we will do. I also wish pundits would start speaking teh truth on thos one - every paper you read has a former player saying stuff ranging from "it will be tough but we're not without a chance" "all the other teams have weaknesses we can exploit" or "we won 2 world wars and 1 world cup so everyone should respect and fear us". Nobody ever says "we won't win it but hopefully the team will go out and play with a bit of freedom, give everyone something to shout about and not really let them and everyone else down". Ultimately that's what we should be looking for.
Whit can ah say. Misery loves company, and let's face it, oor fitba is miserable. Although, I have enjoyed watching the last 3 Scotland matches which is something I haven't been able to say in a very long time.
But NI were the last team to win the home nations in 1994, Wales came second with England and Scotland coming 3rd and 4th respectively. Did no **** at that time stop to give a thought of how **** we were? Could have saved us 29 years of crap that followed.
The last Polish keeper to play at Wembley that that was labelled a clown did all right. And we are talking about England so Boruc might actually not have a save to make.
England will beat Poland by three clear goals and qualify for Brazil. We will then have endless newspaper and TV ****ers building up the hype for the next 8 months actually convincing a load of deluded ****s that they can actually win the world cup. Shirt sales of Englands opponents in the group stage will go through the roof in Scotland. The English FA will make a mint on the shirt sales of the new England strip. Booze sells will go out of orbit in all the home nations as England commiserate getting pumped out on penalties while the rest of the UK celebrate.
Boruc, now playing his football on englands glamorous south coast, will keep the three lions at bay til rickie lambert comes on and scores in the dying minutes
I hope England win the World Cup. Think of the boost the Indy campaign would get when Scottish viewers are subject to endless hours of BBC, SKY, ITV etc. telling us about how England are better than everyone else. Not to mention the likes of Ashley Cole and Steven Gerrard being knighted.
MD is beelin' 'cos Boruc is a tap kwality goalkeeper and also a proud Catholic who loved sticking it to the dirty huns.
