NanLaew Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 (edited) Latest News!!!!!England are going to change their shirt emblem. The Three lions will be replaced by three tampons to represent the worst ****ing period they have ever had. Not even original. But funny (and quite apropos) if you ain't heard it before. The Telegraph online are having a 'What's wrong with British football?' whine-in, adding Scotland's exit from the competition earlier and lamenting no British teams next year. Buggerall wrong with SCOTTISH football mate! Pipped at the post in a group that contained former European and current World Champions and moving up +70 places in the world rankings in the past 18 months. Wotcher mate! The Tartan Army is getting restless. Edited November 23, 2007 by NanLaew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koheesti Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 To be honest, I was hoping for England not to make it. And now that they haven't, I'm thinking more, "Oh my God, ...". Not having England qualify makes it feel like it's not even a proper tournament (no, I'm not British and have no "qualifications" to speak about football).

I dunno, it's like a World War without the USA, know what I mean? No, they failed to make it to a major tournament in the 1970's under their own steam (their qualification for the World Cup in 1970 was because they were the holders). They also missed out for qualification in 1984 and for the World Cup in 1994. Most countries would have thought it a blessing they never qualified because of the England fans' behaviour abroad. I didn't really start watching "football" until I lived in Estonia (for a decade). The bars had mainly England playing on the TV and if Estonia were playing they were relegated to a TV in the corner. Granted, Estonians could watch at home for free but the point is, for me, England and football became synonymous. It's nice to see change but sometimes when it happens, it's not as pleasant that you first would have thought. If football/soccer were as advertiser dependent as "football" in America, FIFA would be weeping at England not qualifying. At leat over here I won't notice it as much as the matches start so late.

SamuiBond Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Is that why England wants to host the competition so bad? To qualify for sure. Look at the bright site. There's not going to be any hooligans and football violence. Plus they save tons of money on beer... (just a thought) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't know why England are expected to do well as they don't have any decent players for a country of 50 million people.

onethailand Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Now we know the real truth... Anthem gaffe 'lifted Croatia'Croatia rose to the occasion in their crucial Euro 2008 defeat of England - after an apparent X-rated gaffe by an English opera singer at Wembley. Tony Henry belted out a version of the Croat anthem before the 80,000 crowd, but made a blunder at the end. He should have sung 'Mila kuda si plania' (which roughly means 'You know my dear how we love your mountains'). But he instead sang 'Mila kura si planina' which can be interpreted as 'My dear, my penis is a mountain.' http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/7109058.stm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They think they still are the football king around but in fact almost all european teams can beat them now. They are not creative enough and think shouting screaming and pushing is going to get them somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamuiBond Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Sure Football was invented by English and Golf by Scots. Isn't it bitter sweet that after hundread years someone beats you in your own game and you don't get any royalties...? Thailand pretty much invented elephant polo and i doubt they ever got it patented with a security that they would succeed. At the end players make the difference.
