Not Columbia

 

I’d start with the team that started v Panama.

 

Maybe Rose instead of Young, but don’t mind young for ball retention/steady head.

 

Wouldn’t put Ali back in if he’s fit. Think we are more fluid without him.

If we get through then the QF on Saturday clashes with the baby’s inaugural Nursery BBQ (starts at 2pm), who organises a fucking Nursery BBQ on WC QF day ffs

 

Then if we get to the semi’s I’m going to have to watch it in Plymouth somewhere before getting on a ferry, will miss extra time and pens if it goes that far

 

Absolute abortion of a job

Put your car in ferry queue and 5minutes walk to West Hoe pub or Walkabout if want to jump on passing traffic.

That's why there's no shootings in brangy.

 

There might be up Chorley way if Birch is made to miss the England game

Looks like birch will be doing as he's told

Good news

 

The Annual Nursery BBQ has been moved to 12pm on Police advice

 

Fantastic

Police advice?

Police advice?

Police advice

Yes, police advice

Heard before that for the vast majority of the first team it’ll have been 9 days’ rest since their last game by the time we play Colombia. Seems unprecedented for a World Cup that, basically like starting a new tournament! Hope it favours us.

The rest time is the biggest benefit

 

Stephen Gerrard was pushing for Southgate to rest players for that very reason, then again what does that overrated cunt know, we should have asked Paul Parker what he thinks

Whoosh, over my head ????

Heart says 2-0 us my head says 2-0 Colombia. Gonna be tough this match

2-1 England, Kane & lingard.

Really hope sterling scores tomorrow

Same here. Fear that in a proper game, which we’ve not had yet, it will be the case of same old England.

 

We have no idea how good or not this England team is. We will find out tomorrow. Can’t call it. 50:50 game but for me it’s more hope than expectation right now.

This is the one. Reckon if we win this we'll get to the final

I've got no idea how we'll do as I have no idea if we're actually any good or not.

 

I think by the time kick off comes round I'll actually be a bit nervous, which is unusual for an England game.

Weird feeling

Yup, we've basically beaten two shit sides.

 

 

Our defence looks like it'll crumble under any kind of pressure. But we also look like we can score at anytime.

 

 

4-3 England...

Tunisia were the top ranked African team jsl

They were still shit. League one at best.

You reckon Barnsley would beat Tunisia?

Who cares, it's completely different to club football.

This bit, fuck me:

 

"Hodgson and his assistant, Ray Lewington, did not even bother going to the Iceland-Austria game to make a personal check their next opponents, preferring instead to spend the day sightseeing and going on a boat journey down the river Seine."
