Death, taxes & England losing on penal...

 

I'M SO HAPPY!!!!!

I'm sorry but what???? Sweden have beaten England 3 times in the last 10 games, only 1 of which wasn't a friendly.

 

Actually just seen the last part of your post which screams troll, so yeah, whatever

 

Glad to see that national pride isn't completely dead. :teresa:

Ok ok maybe a couple of me predictions have been wrong so far.

 

So!

 

For me next predictions:

 

A France vs England/ Sweden final

 

But England scraping past Sweden would be something ELSE. Sweden AAALWAAAYS destroys England and with EMBARRASSINGLY good goals, historic goals, too.

 

England needs to sort its head out and join with Wales and Scotland for Gareth Bates, etc. He is wasted in a Welsh team as it will never get to the same level as England. So, join it all together! Invite Ireland in too for a UK and Ireland team. It's the only way England will EVER win again.

That would never happen regarding a UK and Ireland team. Bale wasn't wasted in Euro 2016.

 

 

 

John Terry :cry:

That slip... it was too much :cry:

There are a lot of people claiming England were diving all over the place and cheating. Either we're being biased or Colombia were playing very dirty because that's what I saw. Sure Henderson exaggerated the headbutt situation but at the same time, if he hadn't, the referee wouldn't have even noticed, and I don't think VAR is making a point of going back to certain things the referee has missed. I mean, he didn't even go to look at the screen to see the foul.

You can bet your bottom dollar that if the table's were turned and that happened to a Colombian player they would have fallen to the floor like a sack of spuds. Unfortunately while time wasting and cheating is a part of the game, you have to play the dark arts. Why do you think the likes of Real Madrid and Barcelona are so successful? Just like Ali when he decided to shake everybodies hand before he went off.. I remember watching a game earlier in the World Cup where the commentators were calling out and opposing team for doing that, yet for Ali it was fine!

 

 

Cockiness is still alive it seems ;)

England getting through by the skin of their teeth, I feel bad for Colombia.

 

Why?? They were dirtbags and that's coming from an Irish man!!

One thing noticeable about the penalties tonight is that neither goalkeeper strayed far from his line - unlike the earlier soot-outs in this tournament. Is it too much to hope that FIFA have finally decided to have a crackdown?

 

 

They have believe me -
