| England win a game.... 08:57 - Jun 19 with 13794 views | JethroJack |
...at the World Cup against a very poor side.
And (once again) the players & media behave as if they've already lifted the Cup.
Is this due to accumulated desperation from 52 years of repeated failures at WCs & Euros?
Wouldn't it be better to keep some perspective in order to soften the inevitable disappointment that's just around the corner when they meet some quality.
Or why not over-react and enjoy a win against poor opposition, whilst the going's good?
Unlike the media, my English mates have decided to keep a lid on it, as they know their football.

I couldn't believe BBC Breakfast this morning, I thought England had beaten Germany 10-0 in the final, such was the ecstatic coverage from the word go. Is there seriously no other world news they could have led with for the first ten minutes?
Roll on the next round and their inevitable elimination. |
GMTV was the same.
If this is what we get when they beat Tunisia 2-1, then can you imagine if they win the damn cup?

They won't so don't fret.
Worry about how we never qualify for a World Cup and rely on bitterness to get by |  | | |

It's a pity that Wales haven't qualified since 1958 and I would love them to do well.
However wearing my Italian hat this is the first failure to qualify since 1958. | | | |

We're a small nation in the hardest qualifying region,there's nothing to worry about.England hype themselves up everytime and they always fall apart.We showed them how it's done at the Euros.Plus the seedings always benefit them, it should all be done at random. |  | | |

But isn't it only going to make their eventual upsetting loss all the more delectable, as all the english supporters come crashing back to earth? Come'on Panama! |  |

They'll "thrash" Panama 1-0, to set up a last 16 game against mighty Japan or Senegal.
Another "Iceland" on the cards 😜 | | | |

Threads like this really show Swansea fans up for being bitter little c**ts. Personally I don’t think the media plays up England like they used to and if any of you isolated idiots had the chance to actually talk to England fans you’d realise most are very critical of the side. I’m assuming you all still live in Wales so dont get the chance to do that.
It still amazes me how bitter and xenophobic/racist/prejudiced (for want of a better expression) some of you can be to an entire country especially when the club you support has always relied on English managers and players in a league that is for all intents and purposes, England’s league.
Smacks terribly of bitterness/an inferiority complex. If you hate England so much why do you put yourself through it? | | | |

I don't think its xenophobic/racist to "hate" england in sport. its not like many on here actually hate the english, its only due to competition.
Landon Donovan made a simular foolish tweet about US Soccer fans "hating" mexico, when its common knowledge that mexico is the "enemy" of the US on the pitch-- but when 80% of the people who support the US are from mexico its just silly. | |

The Tunisian number 14 should be hung out to dry. In playing for a point in the last 2/3 minutes and he tries to dribble the ball in his own corner which lead directly to the goal- absolutely shocking.
Having said that England were the better team and deserved the win, looking forward to the hype being deflated against Belgium though. |  | | |

Calm down. I was in Deptford two weeks ago and got talking to two Milwall supporters who said that they weren’t supporting England because it was basically a black team. Now they really were bitter little c**ts. |  |

Just when I thought Harry Kane seemed like a decent level-headed bloke, all the hype gets to him and he announces that he wants to be up there with Ronaldo & Messi.
FFS - keep your gob shut, you're not even on the same planet!
Did Gareth Bale ever come out with tripe like this?
No, rather than talk about it, he went to Real Madrid to try to prove it...and win multiple Champions Leagues trophy 🆠🆠🆠🆠[Post edited 20 Jun 2018 5:13]

With respect, you've missed the point. We don't think we're world beaters see.
England do and their delusion is a constant source of humour to every other country.
Even Germany don't go banging on about being World Champions and they've achieved it numerous times.
If "Englanders" would just keep their gobs shut, then they wouldn't repeatedly become the figures of fun they've become for the last 50 odd years. Even their own media turn on them, if Kane hadn't got the last minute winner, this lot would have just been the latest bunch of Muppets to pull on the "3 Lions" 😠|
No we don’t think we are world beaters, because Wales as a football nation is rubbish.
Welsh football fans slagging off England because of their lack of success, if a bit like Barnet fans slagging Tottenham for not being more successful. [Post edited 20 Jun 2018 9:28]

You're talking through your phucking anus.
Wales may not be able to produce all that many players, but a 3 million population has somehow managed to create world class players....John Charles, Ivor Allchurch, Cliff Jones, Mark Hughes, Ian Rush, Ryan Giggs, Gareth Bale.
50 odd million England have created...Bobby Moore, Bobby Charlton & Gazza.
Poor effort that, there's obviously something fundamentally wrong with the English football DNA preventing the creation of top top players 😜 | | | |
