Group winners.

Some frankly awful English defending tonight....but 2 good goals.

Still, at least you guys qualified eh? That's all that counts right?

... and won our group, meaning we play Ecuador instead of Germany, a good result I'd say. Also, at least our second goal was worthy unlike the pathetic attempt by Sweden.

A goal is still a goal right? That's what you lot say when England bundle one over the goal line?

Oh so bitter, don't worry, your sectarian compadre will be in a minute claiming a Swedish victory then you two can stink this thread up more than a mouldy vineyard again.

Indeed, a goal is a goal. Credit to Sweden, they repeatedly hit us where it hurts: the set pieces. With our defence in such a nervous state, I am all the gladder that we can enjoy the rewards of *winning* our group by avoiding a huge team like Germany at the beginning of the knockout stage.

MWAHHHHAHAHHAHA!

First good team you get - your out... The vultures are circling... Your guff!

I stick by my prediction, you'll get past Ecuador, beyond that - history!

Tata England.

Your nowhere near good enough for this competition.

This is what this thread is about, the way it was going I thought we were in danger of having some sort of love in

Tell you what mate, go have a read of my posts in this thread then come back when you know what you're talking about

Well, as an England fan (so what the hell am I doing here

), I thought we dominated the first half, and then completely ballsed up the second

I wouldn't mind, but it was an ex-Villa player who scored the first Sweden goal, and it looks like it was another who scored the second, dammit!

FWIW, I think we'll get through the next round and probably knacker it against Portugal now (yep, I've revised my opinion

)

All true. I thought England were (finally) playing well in the first half and for once kept playing, and looked likely to score a second. What happened in the second half, who knows?

However I think (hope), you will knacker it against Holland, rahter than Portugal

Is that why we won our group, over sweden, by two points? Because we're guff? Um, OK then.

England were fab in the first half (although wtf was the swede thinking bringing on crouch rather than walcott??

). Secong half was poor, although another fab screamer from Gerrard made me smile again. England win their group - Yay.

Anyway, I thought Sweden were going to beat us TBR? No? OK then.

I suppose you're supporting Ecuador next? It must be awful not to be able to get behind and loyally support your own home team because they're that ****e that they didn't even qualify. Poor sod.
