Hypocritical Oafs

Listening to the radio phone-ins for the last couple of days a familiar picture is beginning to emerge.

“How can we expect to win when we are playing defenders out of position?”

“The situation with the midfield is depressing. We have all these highly-rated ‘stars’ who cannot score.”

“Without the top striker we are left with forwards who couldn’t hit a cow up the backside with a banjo”

“The opposition are killing the game. All these sides who chuck ten players behind the ball are so difficult to break dowm.”

Sound familiar?

Ladies and gentlemen I give you the England supporters. Yes, that’s them, the same people who call us ‘whingers’ if we have the nerve to say anything similar about our own side.

At least we are only occasionally frustrated in the circumstances they describe. It would seem to me that England are trotting out this stuff with every passing game.

When was the last time England played well?



New 'Holic is coming...stay tuned.

Owen Hargreaves had to say this after the Andorra game:

"The first half was frustrating,"
"They didn't really come to play and just defended.

"Some of the challenges were shocking and I don't think the referee protected the players enough at times. I told him numerous times.

Sounds really really familiar, Dave :).
