Was a very proud man watching our boys ply their trade in Brazil, how far we have have come is astonishing to say the least. And every player can walk back into training with their heads held high. Very proud today. Well done lads!  |

Sun readers getting carried away with bullshit media spin that we have some divine right to at least get to a semi.....lazy journalists and lazy posters who don't have the sense to see their own hypocritical drivel mate! England go out in group stages = overpaid, overhyped Premiership superstars who don't deserve any of the obscene amounts of money they make Bego and Palacios go out in the group stages (after the latter makes a global show of how shit he is)= they're "Heroes"....dear oh dear! |

Honduras were shit, Bosnia certainly weren't any better than England and neither were Nigeria in terms of quality...even Cameron made a right balls up at CB and was at fault for a goal then dropped the next game because of it but they're all HEROES don't ya know! |

Honduras were like a pub team, bosnia didn't impress me that much. Only positive I would take is the usa giving it a right good go last night and should of gone through had that donkey not missed from 10 yards. |

I thought that the linesman was signalling a goal kick and it was the commentator who got it wrong?

I think the points seems to have been lost that the original post was about the individual players, not the teams they play for.
I've not seen all the games, but from what I can tell Begovic couldn't have stopped any of the goals, Odemwingie scored a goal and did OK for the rest of the time, Cameron had one stormer and made one howler, and Cpt Windy got himself sent off and looked shit.
All in all, they appeared to do a decent job.

All in all, they appeared to do a decent job. even so......... a goalie who wasn't at fault but also didn't do anything to amaze, a forward who played bit parts of the tournament and scored against one of the weakest teams in the competition, a player who fucked up good and proper and was at direct fault for a goal against his team and a player who was truly dreadful and got a red card justifies calling them heroes now?? Hart wasn't at fault for any of our goals against, Rooney was very good in the second game, Wellbeck was brilliant the first half against Italy but apparently they're all wankers and primadonnas. you can see the inconsistency surely mate??? hyperbole would be an understatement (can you see what i did there ) |

I knew England had problems but I still expected to get out of the group.
Didn't Odemwingie score as many as Rooney and Sturridge yet costs a fraction of their transfers?
Didn't Cameron cost a fraction of what the England players cost and actually put in a performance that was pretty good whereas all our players were fucking wank?
So, in summary, at least 2 of our players performed well whereas supposedly better England players were fucking gash.
Absolutely fucking gash.

Thought Geoff did a superb job in midfield last night , his distribution and passing was excellent. I think he would, on that showing , do the 'Nzonzi/Sidwell' role without an problems.
I echo some of the previous posts, in having enjoyed watching our players do us proud on the world stage ( Palacios excluded ), an absolute pleasure. Well done to the club for having progressed so much in the last 5-6 years.
Just a pity Austria failed to qualify, as I would have loved to see Arnie do his stuff !

I'm bothered about Stoke and England and I'm much more bothered about the former. The bottom line is, that even though I don't really want any Stoke player risking injury out there, I can still can much pleasure from the way that Odem and Cameron have performed. As for England, given the supposed quality of players that we have from Man City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Man U etc then we performed like a fucking bunch of half hearted twats. That's it - that is all there is to it. |

I'm sure it's your message board persona and you're a real loveable fella and all but on here you just come accross as a miserable prick to be fair.. so how was my response an exaggeration???? i pointed out that the Stoke players representing their countries did nothing to make them "heroes" didn't i? is that over-exaggerating things or simply telling the truth? did i even slag off any Stoke players or are you just having a knee jerk reaction and equating calling out some hypocrites on here with slagging off our own players and their accomplishments? unlike some i am simply pointing out people's own complete hypocrisies and inconsistencies without needing to resort to petty, childish name calling simply because people don't agree with my point of view. i could call you a pathetic fuckwit of a troll who insults people who disagree with his viewpoint but i'm not as pathetically childish as some on here. P.S. i don't have a "Persona" for messageboards mate...not all of us feel the need to take on a different character for effectjust to try to impress people. and, do i give a flying fuck whether you like my "persona" or not? absolutely not mate...you may want to start realising that lots of people have lots of different opinions and if you think that calling someone else a "Miserable prick" simply for pointing out how hypocritical some on here are and for disagreeing with your own opinion, then you really have missed your own irony there haven't you? |
