I am with Benji on this one I think he meant that as a shot, the body position and technique is very similar to the goal Roberto Carlos scored when he was good (not sure on year, or team it was against), looking at the replay he looks at the goal, the keeper's position and the players in the box!! The pass for the second goal was good but you would expect it from most professional footballers I would think

Schumacher isn't a cheat he just fouled Battison by hiping him in the face, rough play was allowed before the USA got the World Cup :-) He paid for the dentistry so all is forgiven, as soon as that cheating fat coke-snorting Argie lets us chop off his arm then he will be forgiven too!!

You're right, I think he was charged in Scotland after an "incident" with two girls after a tournement and the honour was taken away But surely it is time to honour him in some way, if Clive Woodward got a knighthood for basically winning the 6 nation and the World Cup in the same year and achieving nothing of note before or after, then Taylor who was won 17 world titles and too many other tv tournement to name should be honoured in some way. Two 9 darters and the 10 darter were awesome but Wade was amazing as well

That is pretty much how I would pick it, with maybe Fernandes and Telfer in for Dodd and Anders.

Never stood a chance in the England dressing room after being over ruled by the players in asking Wayne Rooney to apologise for throwing off his armband in tribute to Emlyn Hughes in the Spain friendly. Had a great record as assistant at United as well!!

Wasn't our 100 year shirt all red, apart from black and white on the shoulders! Also the away shirt in blue was awesome!

I think Ostlund losing the ball and not getting back is partly to blame as well!!! Also, I thought that Paul Williams was an excellent fill in CB, between Dean Richards and Killer. Crouch - If only he had stayed until Christmas after relegation we would've gone straight back up Davenport and Bernhard - For not realising that the tall slow one wins headers, while the short quick one sweeps behind

Says the expert :-)

Big block in the second half stopped them scoring apart from that average but all our RBs are average!!

Pretty sure it is the original version, at least that is what I sing!!

Have to be honest I didn't think it was a penalty on JP, he could've easily kept playing and the contact was too light. I was in Block 4 pretty much in line with it and I was more disappointed in JP for not staying on his feet. I thought KD was man of the match, three excellent saves, Fonte and Harding were close behind will some excellent defending. Seabourne and Ostembor looked dodgy at times but both made superb contributions, Ostembor made a great block near the end! Antonio excellent finish made even better by a few quid on 11/1!!

Take off jacket wrap it around said beers and place it in the bag the beers were in, worked for the FA Cup Final :-)

Don't forget the people getting on at Winchester and Eastleigh etc it is going to be F'ing squashed on that train!!

Have to disagree a little here, he was injured and it took that time to assess the injury, then he had the balls to try and come back on and play but couldn't, then went off as close to the part of the pitch he was standing on! If we are talking about what we hate at football, mine is balloons no room for them

These kids learn too much, too young

I was thinking this as well. When we need a replacement CB to play alongside him if Jaidi etc are classed as not being up to the job at a higher level, do we buy a skillful CB or a beast! Having watched Fonte in the last few games I think he would benefit from having a cultured CB alongside him as he is the "Beast" of the team!! His reading of the game and positioning are outstanding, especially shown in the block on the line in the last 10mins. Along with Hammond he will give away the momentum stopping halfway line foul, which we haven't done in ages and stops counter attacking in its tracks.

He was a very good midfielder that season under Strachan but because he had a bad injury never really recovered and wasn't that good after that, and to be fair was awful when he joined under Gray!!

According to most on here it was a miracle that we finished 8th in the league and got to the cup final, considering we had the following "****" players: Ormerod Beattie Delap Oakley Fernandes Lundekvam (only good because of Svensson)

Think my favourite bit is that they claim they are being charged too much and may be due a rebate!! Not sure you get taken to court for a rebate :-)

Maybe the training bids indicate the traditional position number and Barnard and Lambert being 9 and 10 will start upfront together tomorrow. Although, not sure if they practice as the following days team in training especially not when cameras present!!

In there defence, they play a physical direct attacking style and scored (what looked like in the stadium) two very good goals, where a weighted pass split our defence twice and the forward placed the ball in the net. I don't care too much for the time wasting or cheating but they were the better team for most of the game, although on another day we would've had a bit of luck with our shots on target. I think the turnstile issue was more with the user rather than the actual turnstile!! And the Chicken Balti Pies were fantastic :-)

Ian Roberts an Aussie Rugby League player was gay, beat up, I think, a teammate for gay jibes

Thank god for that I thought I was imagining it!!

I thought we looked a lot better in the first than the second and for most of the second half I didn't think we looked like scoring. Our midfield looked really fatigued and they defended really well albeit a touch industrial!!! Saying that they seemed to lack the killer finish up front!! Also, I'm sure if I was seeing things but did Hammond take a massive kick at one of there midfielders after getting fouled (ref waved play on!!)

100% agree with that, it seemed to me that we robbed them at the death (not that I'm bothered!!) Thought that we looked weak in midfield and they took advantage of that in parts BUT we showed excellent spirit to equalise and took some quality pens. Great last save by Bart
