Never mentioned world cup

A semi final

Well we were talking about a world cup game and not the Euros so I thought that would have been clear enough

 

[Ormorof]

Talking about your whole life so that would include many euros!

Like I said we are not discussing Wimbledon, Formula 1, the Euros but only the World Cup so I would assume the context of my quote would be obvious. Never mind.

Yes but we were discussing England's performance in a World Cup not in a Euro. Context man, context!

England will be like a strike in the 70's on Wednesday night that is for sure.

Hint look at my other post.

1966, 1990 and 2018.

Best Summer for a long time. England world cup semis and all uk interest out of Wimbledon before the first week is over.

Didnt we get to the semi finals of the netball last year or some thing

 

[Embattle]

I can't say I'm that worried about either of these two teams.

LET ME SPELL IT OUT FOR YOU, WORLD CUP SEMI-FINALS. Did you get that? If not, WORLD CUP semi-finals. This is not a thread talking about fucking netball.

Hey the first partofmy first post was the semis. Lol

 

[Access Denied]

Can you imagine what it'll be like if we do go on to win it? A piss up 52 years in the making, will be biblical!

 

[caLLous]

A lot of the Croatian players looked absolutely fucked towards the end of extra time.

Lets hope they remain so. But hey a russian team with a few more yellow cards would have been better.

I still think England are pretty shit defensively, we relied heavily on Pickford today.

Ah well.

And @Gwadien what do you expect of a team average age 23 or something. We are getting the breaks we havent. Had for the last 5w years tbh

 

[Job]

I said to the wifes football mad family that the win over Sweden didnt seem as exciting and that the fear has gone and with it a bit of the excitement for the next game.
They agreed with me..huumans are funny.

 

[Scouse]

If you hate football so much why do you post about it so much?

I don't expect anything, I know that at the next world cup or even Euros England will probably be the best team there.

I just think there's massive expectations for England to to win, we flopped massively against Belgium, and it's gonna be them or France and I don't see us doing well against either of those, let alone Croatia.

The Belgium game both us and them fielded almost entirely different teams. And we only lost 1 -0.

So has no relevance.

But getting to the final will be easier than winning it against either of them.

You havent witnessed enough disappointment to take whatever England football team providewith open arms and not question it.

Let some oldies have a dream. I guess you are not even thirty yet? So werent even around or very small in 1990
