Leyther_Matt Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Capello comes across as cold as you’d expect and Hoddle was a bit tapped, but the rest come across as genuinely nice blokes. All caught at their most vulnerable, but nice blokes all the same. Got to love Sven’s smirk when the subject of Ulrikka came up. Sam had his chance and fucked it up, but he fucked it up in style at least. Wasn’t happy with how he left us but it was a long time ago now and it’s not something worth getting wound up about any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc505 Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Enjoyed this program, there’s something about looking back at England in tournaments that gets me nostalgic like nothing else. Can remember where I was, what I was doing for every single tournament match we’ve played since 96, it shapes lives! Sven was interesting, probably learn more about him in that hour than in his entire reign, looks good without the hair too. Ah, Sam. I feel like he let me down personally with all that went on, and in turn everyone else too, I was so happy he got that job. Bloody idiot, thought he was going to cry at one stage, obviously going to affect him for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madthatter Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 (edited) Fascinating viewing this We’ve had some absolute cock-ups haven’t we Aye. The more I hear G Taylor speak the more I like him and Sven looks like a pervy uncle ha ha! Little bit of dust returning seeing that Waddle miss - we were so close. That Hoddle thing was a weird one. Not sure he should have been sacked myself. And Capello makes me piss! 'What did they say when they returned from the Copacabana . . too much partying!'

Smiley Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 It was all very sad viewing TBH. The amount of fuck-ups. Anyone watch the 2-part documentary about when England ruled Europe - 1977-1984. Europe couldn't get the damn European Cup off us. How Cloughie was never England manager is criminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye I know we've often been just plain old shite but feel we've also had some pretty bad luck in WCs. Hand of God, that Sol Campbell goal that was disallowed, flukey Brazilian free kicks, Lampard's 'goal', penalties, Rooney getting crocked when he was ripping it up . . . the draw also has never done us any favours apart from 1990 and we could/should have gone all the way then. I'm convinced you need a bit of luck in any sport/tournament but then have to capitalise on it. We've had fcuk all (by comparison) Edited June 18, 2018 by madthatter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duck Egg Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 If you like your footy nostalgia I can highly recommend Scotland 78: a love story on BBC iplayer. Some great footage of the time and the hilarious over optimism of the Jocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
