England will never win the world cup again. They are a tribal bunch of oafs who have been squabbling amongst themselves for over a millennium. This squabbling eventually resulted in the creation of the game of football. This in turn allowed them to continue their warfare and still have time to go to the pub (and the chippie afterwards).

Now don't get me wrong I have a very soft spot for the UK, some of my ancestors came from there (not by their own choice though). But really ... they can't stop fighting each other long enough to put together a 'team' that can win a tournament.

So while they might have a good team on paper, that bit of paper would probably be put to better use wrapping up a bag of chips.



What do you think about the FourFourTwo blog This Is England?
Let me get this straight: despite what the bookies say, I believe England have very little chance of winning the World Cup.
First of all, history is completely against them. No European team has ever...

Have your say.

Careful there... Too much England bashing and Jessesdad will be knocking on your door ;) Nice piece though - the only thing that gives England a chance is Capello IMHO (Rooney can't carry them on his own)

He's right you know! :evil: :d
Round of 16!!! Semis at least.



I can hope. Dual nationality and all that.


Amen Brother...

\:d/

I have three so it all gets a bit complicated, since I am an Australian/UK/Republic of Ireland citizen...


I've got four. Australia/Croatia/Slovenia/Spain. So annoying when it comes to football.
