Sheaf Saint

Only with players who haven't already been booked. He's set a bar but refused to meet it for a few fouls from players already on a yellow.

That's up there with the worst England performances I've ever watched.

I'm sure the Italian fans were saying exactly the same yesterday.

England have been nothing short of pathetic. The aimless passing between the defenders is worse than anything we witnessed at SMS last season. No movement up front, no ability to pass through the lined. It's fucking dreadful football. Worse than anything we produced under Graham Taylor. And he at least had the excuse that we didn't have a decent crop of players at the time. How can you take one of the most talented group of attacking players and make them look so utterly shite?

I'll have some of what you're smoking please. England have been fucking shit, again, and are deservedly behind.

Well the last teenage starlet called Romeo we signed didn't turn out too bad.

Glasto weekend, so the Mrs and me are doing our usual thing of having a few drinks and watching it all on TV from the comfort of our own living room. She enjoyed PJ Harvey earlier, but I've never been able to connect with her music and find some of it quite jarring and uncomfortable to listen to. We're both enjoying Aurora though - not really listened to her before but she's a great performer.

Yeah this is just as likely. He's from Guildford and, aside from a couple of brief loan spells at Leeds and Ipswich earlier in his career, he's pretty much stayed at clubs in London and the south. At this stage of his life he just might not fancy relocating to Glasgow or Merseyside.

Kane thinks we played much better tonight. Hmmmmmm.

In her spare time she's a stripper.

Palmer has looked really bright so far. Trying to get through the lines and make something happen at least.

Finally a shot on goal!

Fair play to the England fans in the ground. Don't know they can keep this up, given the absolute shitshow they're being served up on the pitch.

Foden finally gets in round the back, unmarked on the line, 3 players waiting in the 6 yard box, and he lays it back to the edge of the box to Walker who cocks it up. Sums up England's performance perfectly.

You never watched Danny Fox play then?

Wayne Rooney is a fucking awful pundit.

Obstruction is only a thing if the ball is not within playing distance. If it is within playing distance, players have the right to 'shield' the ball.

So what you're saying is if a player gets fouled when attempting to shield the ball from a defender, it's not actually a foul?

True, but the vote spread would have been different if people knew there would be PR. For example, I am more than happy to vote Green in the local council elections, because they have a much better chance of winning seats and actually having a voice in the council due to the way councils are made up. However, I wouldn't vote for them in a GE because FPTP guarantees that would be a completely wasted vote (although it's worth pointing out that, even if that weren't the case, I still wouldn't vote for them due to their ridiculous stance on nuclear energy). When it comes to election day, most people understand fully that FPTP benefits the two main parties most and a large majority will vote along those lines. But if we had any kind of PR, those voting patterns would not be the same.

Awful game. Only 1 attempt on goal from either team so far. And Switzerland leading against Germany!

Finland's government exists in a sort of perpetual state of coalition, yet they regularly come out on top of the World Happiness report, so it must work for them. Their current government includes representatives from a far-right, anti-immigration party.

He's always looked good when playing for Poland.
