Not exactly unhappy myself.

As for excuses, I think........

1. Rooneys sending off was justified (if it was deliberate-I think it was)
2. Svens tactics have always been poor, and poor tactics is hardly 'luck'
3. Owens injury - fair enough, but he wasnt any good anyway.
4. Again, poor management, not 'luck'
5. I'm sure the list will go on.............

but the truth is most of their star players failed to fire, especially Lampard, who I thought as terrible throughout the tournament. Also Sven doesnt know how to change a formation to adapt during a game. And finally, I think they were just not good enough.

The ref will have to go ex-directory. The news of the filth will have a "You Rooned it Ref" headline. And Sven wil blame it all on mad Fr Horan!

[Jon'o]

Just waiting for the 44 years of hurt bs... until the next chance to win the world cup!!! fat chance, they're a bunch of chokers, and theres too much expectation on their team!

England roo sending off

[Closed Account 2]

Rooney was disgusting, stamping on Carvalho"s privates like that... no wonder half the Portuguese team was incensed.

[beautifulrock]

his team mate Ronaldo didnt do him any favours either, be great to be a fly on the wall at the first get together

[FarBeag]

Happy, relieved and excited. Portugal deserved it and I hope they go on to win it. England will get slaughtered in the papers tomorrow.SGE better get out of town while he can.Rooney is just a tramp.

[Closed Account 2]

I dont see things improving for them with McClaren taking over.

[Frank Blue]

I just thought I'd add my thoughts on this gave from an English point of view.
Portugal had the more skilful players, but could not even beat 10 men in normal time.
England will continue to fail, due to the set up, which goes to the top of the England FA. More disappointment will ensue, as the favourite will continue to be picked. Lampard has proven that he is unable to play the international game. Beckham is nothing short of laughable. He's been dreadful since 1998. Rooney is an angry young man and needs sorting out.
Eriksson is laughing all the way to the bank. Took 4 strikers: Owen - returning from injury and look what happened there; Rooney - a risk as was injured, clearly not match fit and a hot head; Walcott - must be the biggest joke ever by a manager; Crouch - played well today, but not the greatest goalscorer.
In all honesty, I really wonder why people follow this national side at all.
McLaren will be no different. The England FA had the opportunity to change their ways in the 1970's by apponting Brian Clough, and they chose not to do so. Favouritism rules and cronyism.

I think England fans will be looking for answers - Erickson's salary justification would be one. How they continue to miss penalties and how Gerrard, Lampard can be world class for club teams but fail to live up to expectation for country.

let the arrests insue tonight.
Already england fans have stop a music performnace i the town and the riot police are out.
And they wonder why people dont like them???

[Forever Dreamin]

in fairness Rooney got sent off by his team mate and England only started playing when down to 10 men. I cant stand the man but feel sorry for him, this still wont stop me having a few gallons to celebrate the result!
1 last request for the FA, please persuade Sven to stay on!!!

Just after watching the BBC news. They had a live interview with their man who has been traveling with the english fans. He said it was a quiet night with fans drowning their sorrows. And that their was a "minor standoff" close to where he was standing (town square I presume) "involving some english fans and riot police".
He then went on to say how German fans had changed their minds about english fans and the germans now think they're a grand bunch of lads. Some how i'd say he only spoke to 1 fan how hadn't come across any english fans

[lopez]

F*cking delighted! And that b*llsh*t about the Germans thinking they're great lads. The propaganda is like as if the country was at war. Read some bloke in the (London) Independent meeting a German the other day. Claimed the German said: 'You English? I can do an impression of the English' and with perfect home counties accent he held out his arms in plane like fashion and started singing 'Two world wars and one one world cup, doo dah'. Yeah the Germans like them like they like walking dogsh*t in their houses. W*nkers.

[slow2anger]

Fantastic result. We can now enjoy the rest of the WC.

Anyone see the english flag in the dug-out behind erickson tonight with 'No Surrender' scralled in biro on it - the bast*rds.

It's very quiet in Twickenham tonight........happy days!!

[Réiteoir]
