    Yeah, sort of with you there. I wanted Aberdeen to do well in Europe and Rangers too. I have never been to Scotland, but haven't had any problems with the Scots down here past a bit of very friendly banter, but with the Welsh I have always encountered quite a lot of bitterness. Understandable...

    Always been the same since I was a kid, wanting to see the English teams do well. Think it all started with Man U beating Benfica back in 1968 in the European Cup. It was one of the first ever games I can recall and our neighbours even let us go round and watch the game round their house...

    Would have been the same, City or England, but then wasn't that disappointed last night, so wouldn't have been that disappointed had we lost to Exeter.

    Helping Someone Out

    I'm still doing my weekly charitable town centre help out. ;) On Tuesday I was in town and a foreign teacher with a load of teenage students came up to me (as I keep saying, I just have one of those faces) and asked if I could tell her where she would find 'Lady Godeeva statue.' I told her she...

    They are too similar physically too. Loftus-Cheek is much stronger. Would definitely be expecting him to play on Saturday.

    Definitely should have brought Loftus-Cheek on. He would have given us some added muscle and could have helped us dictate play.

    England have always reminded me so much of the City at times.

    Well we will have to agree to disagree then. People have already listed the teams they were up against to qualify and they were rather unlucky to lose to Germany right at the death too in this tournament itself. I do not think Sweden are a bad side, just maybe a bit one dimensional and not...

    Yep and Ferdinand and Neville saying what a poor side Croatia are and that we should beat them easily. I was expecting a tough match last night.

    Kane might not even play. Can see Southgate maybe resting him. He looked shot last night. Really leggy and weary.

    Not really. Get your point, but the difference last night in that second half was that Croatia were a league apart. Quicker, more dangerous, better possession, more skilful etc. etc. It's a funny old game football isn't it. Had we bagged that second goal last night I think we would have won...

    I asked the same question. Still waiting on a reply. Would guess so.

    No it's not! I couldn't bear to lose the Proclaimers, Karen Gillan and deep fried Mars bars.

    At one point I thought young Sessegnon might have sneaked into the squad. He would have probably been the nearest to a like for like with Sterling. He has bags of oace and is tricky.

    I think you are very much confusing Sweden ARE rubbish with Sweden WERE rubbish. We played well against them, but in that match-up with us they were particularly poor. Teams do have off days you know. We all know Sweden did extremely well to even qualify from the group they were in. But just...
