    It's rubbish that no one does a World Cup / Euros song anymore. Surely someone could have given it a go.

    When the tide began to turn in terms of big wages. That was the last England side that I genuinely wanted to watch. For all the posturing in relation to the current mob - They are **** and i couldn't give a toss.

    Never liked that song

    I knew wed win nothing for another 22 years at least and end up being laughed at some more and given hidings by better hooligans just to rub it in.

    I hope we were financially stable back then. That's what footballs all about

    The last time I saw England was in a crappy stadium in Frankfurt.

    England had lost 1-0 to Eire in Stuttgart (and I drove all the way back to Antwerpen with a grinning Irishman in the back of the car), then suffered a pasting at the hands of Holland and then that last game in Frankfurt against Russia.

    The players left the pitch and never bothered to say "Thank You" to the fans, so I said "**** You" to the lot of them. And **** them now.

    I was 12 years old during Euro 88. I remember the ROI game all too well. Eas in tears at the final whistle. Absolute pricks.
