<p><strong>85 min:</strong> The camera cuts to Roy Hodgson on the England bench. He’s deep in conversation with his No2 Ray Lewington, but looks completely frazzle, bearing the countenance of a man who has no idea what to do next.</p>

<p>Masterclass from Italy. IMO the 2 best teams are Italy and Germany, it's a real pity they meet in the 1/4 finals.<br><br>
Belgium will choke, they always do. France have defensive issues.<br><br>
Wales, Portugal, Poland making up the numbers.<br><br>
And we see, but I fancy Iceland in 30 minutes to give England a hurry-up.</p>

<br><p>Why do I never put money where my mouth is :(<br><br>
Well that was 90 minutes well spent<br><br>
England fans must feel like us in 2007. Commiserations.</p> -
<p>at least their rugby team won</p>

Haaaaaaahaaaaaaahhaaaaaaaaa!<br><br>
After the RWC I accused the team of being a bunch of overhyped, choking cockwombles. It gives me great pleasure to pass that crown on to a more truly deserving team. Even with England's football's track record in fucking things up, this performance was truly outstanding. Well done guys. -
Iceland showing that being outside the EU makes you awesome. Setting the example.

<p>Just flicked off the two yearly text to my brother in law (who's from Hull) commiserating him on another exit from a major football tournament.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>His response: "I will never watch England play again."</p>

<p>Sport is raw emotion.</p> -

Speechless.</p></blockquote>
<br>
His praise of the team's efforts was positively Borthwickian. I almost thought they'd won. -

<br>
Much worse. -

It reeked of, oh well I'll pick up my cheque anyway, so I'll just say what the players want to hear and fuck off.<br><br>
He was out thought and out manoeuvred by a part time dentist, with very limited players at his his disposal. -
