I'll let you continue on your morning ramble from that point! I do hope Mr. Cramp is correct with the first of his predictions. That would be exquisite. I was told many years ago that it stands for Western Oriental Gentleman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Wanderer Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 Difference in class tonight. Just screams out a team that nobody will remember from this tournament. Unless they are ignited by tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porteous has been good for one of those types of challenge every few games ever since I first saw play as a teenager for Hibs. Really thought he’d grown out of it since going to Watford but seems not. Second half could be a massacre. You just knew that Germany were in trouble when Grant Pudding Hanley came on. Hats off - brilliant assist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll be honest enough to admit, while I’d have probably got it right in a quiz question, I wouldn’t have been sure and I searched up just to check. Didn’t know all the stuff about him growing up over here and at Chelsea. The big international tournaments have an appeal to them, (especially when England are in them) I’ll occasionally check into the Champions league, premiership, but very much a passing interest, even less so with other foreign leagues. That said it’s what floats your boat and the spare time you have to follow other stuff other than the Wanderers. I take a big interest in loads of other Sports, again especially when I’m passionate about the team/individual I’m following. Would much rather watch Lancs play cricket, Brits competing on an international stage. Watching my own, Heaton, Bolton, Lancashire, England, Great Britain etc be it Cricket, Athletics, Golf, Tennis etc etc is far more appealing to me than watching Musiala play for Bayern Munich Edited June 15 by desperado Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lads like Musiala have been ridiculous all season in the CL and elsewhere. He's every bit as good as Foden. I agree with you. We’ve a few world class players, just like the other top nations, but our back 5 will get severely tested throughout the tournament. It would need our forward players to be on fire every game to match the likes of Germany, Portugal, Spain, France and Italy. I’m watching on because I think there’s a possibility and I love watching England. I’ll be honest again, the moment England go out my interest will wain. 2008 I just couldn’t get motivated to tune in, tried in 1994 taking an interest in McAteer playing, but it was shit and when I go back to getting knocked out early in 2016, 2012, 2000, 1992 etc I struggle to remember what happened after England went out.

I actually dislike England games at present. Always been 100% England but can't stand Southgate so much that I am no longer devastated with a negative result (from a "who is on the losing side now, cunt" point of view) so I suppose it's a win-win. Once he goes I will be all over it again unless we get an even bigger virtue signalling tosser. I wouldn't want us to win this tournament as having this wankers name up in lights alongside that of the true legend Sir Alf would be torture. Can't see it mind. France or Germany for me with the next chances coming from Spain, Italy and Portugal. I reckon we will do our usual (over the whole of our big tournament history) and go out in the quarters.
