Don't worry lads (and ladettes). The rugby boys will bring the world cup home for you next yearΒ Β I hope so but they are going to have to come up with plan b and possibly plan c pretty sharp if they wish to succeed π»ππ

Engerland never looked like scoring in the 50 odd minutes I caught - luckily it was the last 50 odd minutes! Should of been put to bed in first half, should of been 3-0, Croatia were woeful then 2 half England had nothing! At leat that won the first half! They also have the honour of playing for third worse team at the weekend so all is not lost. That said, to get to the same point as England did 28 years ago shows how far England fell and how high this group of young men have climbed. As Rog says, no shame in bowing out at this point of the world cup.

Do I hear right? England lost to Croatia 2-1? Pathetic. How many players for England are even 'English'?
I hope they give their wages back. Probably too cowardly and greedy for such an act.

Seen we only won it a few years ago, and considering we now have one of the best coaches in the world (allegedly), and the most superior team. Also considering that Wales are about to be under the regime of a new manager. Then I'll take your bet and wager 1 Squid When did Wales last win The World Cup by the way?

Steady on. They all reside in, and pay taxes in the UK, which isn't true of everyone here. They get paid for club football (their jobs) and I believe get expenses and appearance fees for England. What young man is EVER going to say "Don't pay me so much please". Rog

What young man is EVER going to say "Don't pay me so much please". Rog Teddy Roosevelt got it right π It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

Ah...but the joy of sport is that it provides drama, excitement, frustration and always, absolutely always, a competition to look forward to.

just to stand corrected. it goes to the England footballers fund who then dish it put to different ones. H4H is just one of the charities that benefit.
I believe it has been going since 2007 and has raised over Β£2 million.
