cr7 listening to sade is the toecurlingly grossest concoction

Few had backed England to progress to the last eight, let alone finish ahead of France, but Hart says that was never a view shared by himself or his team-mates.

from superdry rep interview: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18534148

wtf... yes FEW had backed them, they've done AMAZING just to get out of the group.

is cronny saying 'messi' in that gif?

looks like it.

xp. if few really had backed england to get out of the group stage it was only because bookies were offering the prohibitively short odds of 1-2 to do so.

back home, finally got to see some clips

we sounded pretty fuckin good out there eh

welcome back!

srsly imma sleep til next time

war stories please

we bought gassy water 6 times, and salt instead of sugar.
we conducted a singsong of about 800 fans for two hours in poznan centrum one night.
sang/chanted everywhere we went, must be all over youtube in poland.
ppl queued for an hour to get their pic taken with out famous 'long cox will hurt you in the box' tricolour
driving a campervan is more fun than sleeping in one.
undernourished, underslept, off drink and meat for the next fortnight imo.
worth doin.

These cunts can make even modesty seem annoying

did you see John Delaney at any point

yep! we sang the john delaney song to him and he seemed chuffed. he was well on it. saw him later that night missing a shoe.

dignified as always

what tune is that terry song to?

kc & the sunshine band - give it up

fine xinging btw

According to Bild, Germany are going to 'rest' their front 3 (Gomez, Muller, Podolski) against Greece! Top trolling if true but no way do I see it happening.

no way, already think Greece can mess with their game-plan

the worst thing that would likely happen vs greece is getting to 65 mins at 0-0, at which point bringing on the big machers would step things up better than bringing on klose gotze reus

still bild has less credibility than der sturmer

Pretty sure I heard some TV talking heads discussing England resting some of their top players against Sweden, to "rest them for later in the tournament" - who exactly these top players were, I've no idea, Ashley Young maybe?

Jordan Henderson. He's had an extra long rest

Martin Kelly

over the last ten days or w/e it is I think I've seen every single England player who's been on the pitch cited as playing well, and also as playing badly

for real though, there's no way Parker lasts 120 minutes if it comes to that

forgot Henderson was there, kinda makes Milner's ever-presence even weirder

(xxp) You mean someone other than Roy Hodgson thinks Ashley Young has played well?

By the way, I missed the start of Ukraine game, did Rooney sing the national anthem?

He sung Ukraine's.

That would be more acceptable in Croxteth than God Save the Queen

rooney did sing it, having not sung it when he was in the stands. i was looking forward to a good 'they should all sing it!' thing but ah well.

rooney did sing it

Traitor

Fair play to Shearer butting in there, Lee Dixon wasn't actually saying anything.

rmde at the sudden lockstep from downplaying england to IN IT TO WIN IT ITALY ARE NOTHING TO WRITE HOME ABOUT

Milner completes 9 passes in 69' versus Ukraine

whereas in Italy, for example, Milner might already have been granted a reverential nickname like "the Woodlouse" or "the Marching Gnome" or "Tiny Soldier-Legs".

did Rooney sing the national anthem?

Is this a thing? I noticed he sang it and was disappointed because I'm fairly sure he never used to. I also noticed G Nev singing it for the first match and he definitely never used to sing it. Has there been some kind of pressure from above / tabloid storm?

for real though, there's no way Parker lasts 120 minutes if it comes to that

You ever get smacked by a ball at high speed 500 times a night? Starts to sting after a while.

Jubilee. New team spirit. English manager. We're all in this together. etc etc etc

srs qn

how can u care about probably the best paid squad in the competition (them or spain i guess) p much being outplayed for 80+% of the time so far and being the only side other than greece or ireland who can't play even a rudimentary possession game and being full or srsly despicable players?

Apparently Hodgson wanted his lads to sing the Nat. Anthem, gawd bless you, ma'am.(XP)

rmde at the sudden lockstep from downplaying england to IN IT TO WIN IT ITALY ARE NOTHING TO WRITE HOME ABOUT

You forgot, BALOTELLI IS THE ONLY ONE WHO PLAYS IN ENGLAND THEREFORE HE IS THE DANGER MAN

Which are they: full or seriously despicable? (xp)

It wasn't composed with sport in mind, I'd feel half-defeated by the end of that dirge. And yet you'd think the eastern ones would create armies of ultramotivated supermen.

lampard not there so seriously full ruled out

You appear to be confusing football with rational thought.
