Maybe Boris could be PM and manager of the England football team at the same time. Then we'd definitely be rid of him after six months.

Analysis on Dutch telly completely in line with LG's comments: England played with ten men, because they somehow brute force Rooney into the squad, even in completely useless position.

say what you want about Rooney as manager but he is an experienced head who needs to be fitted into the team somehow

Marcus Rashford dribbled past 3 players against Iceland. No player on the pitch managed more. #ENG #MUFC

If they're just going to go ahead and appoint Southgate or Pards idk why Allardyce couldn't be in the mix.
― On a Raqqa tip (ShariVari), Monday, 27 June 2016 22:03 (eight years ago) link
Allardyce would at least have the good grace to give Andy Carroll a call-up.

After 10+ years of living here it still amazes me how quickly England supporters switch from confident bragging to self-loathing. By the end of the game tonight, half the crowd were cheering for Iceland.
― ǂbait (seandalai), Monday, 27 June 2016 23:25 (eight years ago) link
(in the pub where I was)
the reasons for that attitude are extremely well-documented and not particularly hard to parse instinctively parse imo but I'm far too inarticulate to tap them all out onto a broken smart phone while in my drunken stupor
We all want to support the team at heart, but circumstances conspire against us
― Windsor Davies, Monday, 27 June 2016 23:41 (eight years ago) link
I should proofread, that was a disaster
The arrogance is bcuz ppl can't help but fall for the narratives of hope spun by the media in the build up to these things, the hatred is simply the self-loathing that kicks in once hope is lost and you realise that you've been had, again
― Windsor Davies, Monday, 27 June 2016 23:43 (eight years ago) link
We can all play it cool on an Internet messageboard but a few weeks ago I was on here crowing after 45 minutes of the England-Russia game and I daresay in 2 years I'll be back again
― Windsor Davies, Monday, 27 June 2016 23:46 (eight years ago) link
All very positive but worth bearing in mind that Russia are pish.

how on earth is gareth southgate the leading candidate here?
― Bein' Sean Bean (LocalGarda), Tuesday, 28 June 2016 10:20 (eight years ago) link
There's no point paying the England manager a lot of money at this point
― Dadjokke (Sgt. Biscuits), Tuesday, 28 June 2016 10:24 (eight years ago) link
Presumably cheap and won't be in a position to spend £14m on Alfonso Alves again. He has been groomed for the role in his capacity as U-21 manager, like Stuart Pearce. International management apparently doesn't require any actual reputation or demonstrable skills.

think when i add it up england have probably given me more joy at tournaments than any other team.
