Managed to watch all the game yesterday afternoon thanks to my work allowing us to watch it on the big telly in the Board Room England played better than they have done but still not great but of course the main thing is they won and are through to the next round. It's funny how often they end up playing Germany but here's hoping they can pull off a win at the weekend

[Anne-Marie1981]

Hmmm main thing is we won! I have to say though, I was disappointed. Surely we should be able to get more goals than that against a little country.

[littlewid]

I watched the Germany v Ghana game last night and Germany were sure on the razzle, it was a good game so England really need to do even better, they wouldn't have won against Germany last night thats for sure.....Ghana would have beaten them too.

Been staying off this thread for obvious reasons haha but I have to say, I don't think England have a chance of getting past Germany, they're just not playing well enough. And if by some miracle they did, they would most likely then have to play Argentina ! Forget it !

I would just like to point out tho, that I am not one of those "Anyone But England" Scots and I have actually been supporting England in all their matches. I want Spain to win it tho.

What bothers me about England more than anything is really the media and the commentators. I mean the way the media turned against Rob Green was terrible ! The guy made a mistake for goodness sake. The same thing happened years ago when Beckham missed a penalty. The way the media went on was pathetic. You would have thought he was the spawn of Satan.

But I have nothing against the team and I would really like to see them do well (although perhaps not win it as 44 years later we still keep hearing about 1966 haha).

I think unfortunately England will lose tomorrow. But not by much.

Good luck Engurland x

[littlewid]

Know where your coming from with the media thing LT, the poor guy made a mistake, he is human and it happens, I felt very sorry for him.

But I am an English girl and I am supporting my country and team to the MAX tomorrow. germany are a really good team and they were on fire against Ghana the other day but then so were Ghana.

I think it will be ENGLAND 1 GERMANY 1 and then penalties and then its in the hands of the Gods but I must say David James is good in those situations so I think we will win the penalties.

I totally agree with you Littletoto - honestly we slate people once they make a mistake, we are after all humans!

I am throwing the cat amongst the pigeons here saying this.................but if England don't win (overall that is) i am supporting Argentina i have happy memories of 2 holidays there and it's a wonderful place. Not necessarily a good reason for supporting a team but hey that's my reason.

Anyway - come on England

[littlewid]

I haven't got that far ahead Lai, i'm still banking on England winning ......lets hope that doesn't turn into a crying smilie

[Laikipia]

GUTTED England were rubbish i'm affraid, yes we got a second goal most definiately, but honestly the players were dreadful, ROONEY, Rubbish, GERARD, Rubbish, why bring on HESKEY when we need a goal, he hasn't scored since when, so disapointing.......FABIO needs to GO
Not happy this evening

[sambuka]

I watched this as well, not a good day, at least we came 2nd & 3rd in the grand Prix. sambuka

Would anyone like to buy a red T Shirt only worn 3 times

[Laikipia]

that's funny WS

[Anne-Marie1981]

As sambuka said, we got 2nd and 3rd in the European Grand Prix, I hope our boys can continue of that form and take a 1, 2 at Silverstone!! I'm going to be there all weekend and I am so excited!!

I'm just going to have a little rant at football, I apologise now. But you'd think it was the only blooming sport in the country!! How on earth the news channels have failed to mention that the England cricket team won the one day international series yesterday against Australia beggers belief. We have just taken an unassailable 3-0 lead in a 5 match series. Played in front of a sell out crown (well it looked it) at Old Trafford. And to mention it again, it was against Australia! The top ranked team in one day cricket!! Argh!! They don't normally ignore the cricket, I'd be gutted if I was an England cricketer!!

Our footballers are all over paid! Take away their crazy wages and given them winning bonuses!!

Ok rant over!! Sorry!!!

[Laikipia]

Okay so now i will rant too - i love Wimbledon (i know on Sunday they have a day off) but most of the time it's footie talk only ..........

there is other sport out there .........................................

finished now - thanks.

[Anne-Marie1981]

I love Wimbledon too Lai!! The Nadal match on Saturday was very good, and did you happen to catch the Federer interview? What a fantastic man, a true gent and not at all starry!!
