Chin up lads


It's definitely an age thing. My Dad said he wasn't even going to watch it.

I remember as a kid crying after going out to Argentina in 98, and being distraught after losing to Portugal on penalties in 04 and 06.

Last night, I didn't even feel any nerves when Kane stepped up to take the 2nd penalty. I'd already accepted in my mind that he was going to miss, you just knew he would.

England won't win a major tournament in any of our lifetimes as it's a mentality issue as much as anything else. Just can't handle the pressure.

Concurred.i remember being gutted in 82,86 definatley and 1990. Since then i get less bothered.
I think that golden generation put me off them a bit..
 
“Gutted”, “Devastated”, really ?

No shame in losing to France.

Exiting in the Q/F stage is about where we really are, despite the hype.

It’s not like a Sunderland relegation or promotion near miss
 
Great choon

Better then yer Comin hame shyte


You been off the board for a week or two?
In real life. It was ubiquitous last time, barely heard it this time. I guess it’s been on the board a bit but then “SEB” “BHH” and “Is be a MLF?” are too, so I don’t put too much stock in this place being an accurate reflection of wider society!
 
I have to say I was a moralist that cracked, I know double standards and all that. For what it’s worth I think England gave a very good account y of themselves where a lot of previous so called golden generation teams folded. Yes we always come up short against quality opposition, but last night that game was there to win and we just came up short in those crucial moments.

This, I know I take the piss and only right that I do in response to those whom do vice versa, however you lot were a gnats bawbair away from the semi final, if you had equalised I feared that the cup would have been yours. You didn’t fall short cos you were shit or bottle jobs or Southgate’s tictacs. Yes tictacs.

Anyway you didn’t and I’m happy so I’ll get back to ripping me cock off. 😉
 
I thought we played well, very unlucky to lose that game. We looked as good as France, big shame Kane missed the penalty.
