I remember a few years ago (when Bobby Robson was manager) Nigel Clarke was in a posse of reporters flying on the same plane as Robson to a match. He was caught on camera saying if Robson got the wrong result "robson will fry"
There are some reporters that do wish the best for the england team, there are however a certain section that thrive on the national team failing. Remember the Graham Taylor documentary ? True Taylor was out of his depth, but did he deserve some of the headlines he got. And I think most football supporters remember the treatment John Barnes received from the boo boy's at wembley. This was a direct result of the headlines he got from the "gutter press".
