International Football 'stuff': not worthy of a thread.

England paying $2.65 and Italy $2.85. Nothing in it.

Come on England!!!

BTW....."Its coming home" was written 25 years ago for Euro 96. The Euro's were hosted in England the song was about Football coming back to its birthplace after no major tournament being played in England for 30 years.

And is totally tongue in cheek about how shit we've been.
People taking it as arrogance don't get English football fans self depreciating humour.
Anyone who follows a club outside the top 6 gets it

Lyrics to its’ coming home
We still believe, we still believe We still believe, we still believe It's coming home, it's coming home It's coming, Football's coming home It's coming home, it's coming home It's coming, Football's coming home again Tears for heroes dressed in grey No plans for final day Stay in bed, drift away It could have been all Songs in the street It was nearly complete It was nearly so sweet And now I'm singing Three lions on a shirt Jules remains still gleaming No more years of hurt No more need for dreaming Talk about football coming home And then one night in Rome We were strong, we had grown And now I see Ince ready for war Gazza good as before Shearer certain to score And Psycho screaming Three lions on a shirt Jules remains still gleaming No more years of hurt No more need for dreaming We can dance Nobby's dance We could dance it in France It's coming home, it's coming home It's coming, Football's coming home

Bit quite here today.

Congratulations England you found the most painful way to loose and rip the joy put of the fans once again.

I only watched from the 80th min seemed a typical final, tight with not much going on. The Italians were composed and took their time the poms were looking to break but it was a bit erratic and they turned the ball over to easily.

What a mistake by the coach throwing two ice cold players on for the penalties and they both missed. Rashford was criminal i hate players f**king around but when he did go he got the keeper going the wrong way but hit the post. That was the turning point for me. Poor Saka 19yrs old and the entire country had just had there hopes lifted and he puts in a terrible penalty. Why he was taking one of the 1st 5 is beyond me.

A great tournament for England will be remembered for all the wrong reasons and dreadful penalties

I know rough morning. I thought there’d be some Italian salt rubbers here to or even some game comments but nothing.

The Italians I know are more than happy to let you know when they win.

I think England did very well and penalties are a skill but also it’s very mental with that amount of pressure. I think England should be very proud.

The manager took a gamble. Didn’t work so he looks stupid but if it worked he was a genius.

The premier league has developed some really good young players at a high level. I think you are about to have a golden generation.

Only good things to come.

watched the first two PSG games on kayo yesterday …given how M’Bappe was making fools of the opposition in both games …I have to wonder how many goals him and Messi are gonna achieve (assuming Bapps signs his contract of course)

Well TBF , these were my first two PSG games , is Ligue 1 top heavy like Scotland is ?

 

[BrisRecky]

You know , I was mildly concerned when Messi left FCB …BUT…..it’s ok , cause now (everybody sing) “Were Walking With Memphis”

 

[BrisRecky]

How the f**k do the players breath after scoring a goal at PSG games , bloody smoke bombs and flares going off like crazy …ya can’t see the pitch straight after a goal

 

[BrisRecky]

Just watched the French cup game between PSG ( who were playing M’Bappe and the youth team) vs Vannes , who parked TWO buses and still got pinged 4-0
