This is a fascinating insight from Broady and really highlights the change in mindset -

Yup, my boy still talks about his mascot day (even though we lost at home in L2). No Christmas party this year, but an 'event' later in the year - https://www.ccfc.co.uk/news/2022/november/news-jsb-party-to-take-place-later-in-the-202223-season/ Added to the list of excuses for stuff this...

Dele Alli-gator?

Thanks for linking to my vid. 10 years ago when I uploaded that! 😳

Yup and I'm always guilty of looking ahead and thinking 'in two years time player x and y will be at their peak, we'll win it then!' It can't always be down to bad luck/refs/lack of subs each time. How do we differ from Germany/Italy for example? We seem much closer now in...

I don't think it's a comparison per se, it's more of a question of would a different coach taken us further this time. And if you think yes, does that apply to previous managers when we didn't win a tournament? eg Could someone else than Erikkson done better in the 30 mins against 10-men...

Every site I've looked at has our xG much higher than France's. Even taking away Kane's second pen. xG England 2.36-1.08 France http://www.soccer-blogger.com/2022/12/10/xg-england-vs-france-football-world-cup-2022-expected-goals-eng-1-2-fra-match-stats-quarterfinal/ 2.54 v 1.21...

Unsurprisingly, Jonathan Liew puts it far more eloquently than me! Interesting comparison of Ancelotti / Pep > knockout / process. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/dec/12/england-world-cup-qatar-france-quarter-final

It's curious that everyone has a complete conviction that the thing Southgate didn't do would have been better than the thing he did do. That's not defending Southgate, but I can't believe that every England manager since '66 could have won a trophy by not playing x but playing y instead...

First away game of the season with my boy, can't wait. Said to him it could either be an amazing day or a shite one!

Agreed. We can't afford to lose Dabo from midfield to play CB...

He'd surely been one of those bidders. And so King was a desperate SISU plan b?

Not sure if this has been mentioned in this thread but our u18s lost 3-2 to Southampton in the last minute. Bit of a shitter...

Why do I keep returning to this thread! It's just going to stress me more as others post that they've received theirs and I haven't!!

I'd said before, I see similarities between Southgate and Robins. Both conservative, keep possession and rather not lose managers. England are a top 8 side, so going out in the quarters against another top 8 side (France probably top 2 tbh) wouldn't be a disgrace. As long as it's not a tepid...

'The BBC, which has first pick of the semi-finals, is sharing television coverage of the tournament in the UK with ITV, which has first and second picks in the last 16 and first pick of the quarter-finals.' Looks like ITV for both the last 16 and 1/4 finals...😬

How tall is he?
