Play like this? What, the home team chasing shadows for 45 minutes? It looks a very very one sided game to me. Let's wait until the final whistle though.

Yes well exactly after 90 minutes we'll know more. We may have been 'chasing shadows' but its 0-0 still they've had no chances, I'd be interested to know how you'd approach this game differently to get a result?
What's embarrassing is England's hoofball. What was the point of this friendly? Let's see if we can park the bus and stop Spain scoring?

We've successfully restricted by far the best international side in the last 10-15 years to a few pot shots, while worrying them a few times. Get the f*** behind your country for once, English people.
Yes we'll probably lose. But if that is some kind of "told you so", then some people have lost sight of why you support your side in the first place.

You are aware of who we are playing against yes? You are aware if we tried to play them at their game we'd lose by double figures, yes?
This. Plus Spain are pretty much playing to full strength, we are not playing Rooney, Gerrard, Terry etc AND experimenting with some young blood, quite how restricting Spain to scraps is classed as shit is beyond me.

Does anyone know who this 12th man is we have out on the pitch? I keep seeing us play long balls to him, he's just not showing up on my tele.

Not the most exciting game but watchable anyway, as mentioned above the Spanish have been restricted to a few pot shots but nothing much to trouble our keeper, the only worry is that they are playing the Barcelona way and trying to pass the ball into the net...they may only make one clear shot on goal, but that might be enough.

That's right our country is our country! We won't lose. (you heard it here first)
My approach will take time I'm afraid; it involves a total reeducation of footballers and supporters. But, it starts with a steadfast refusal to support this crap. It clearly is not working so let's take a few steps back and start again. Supporting and encouraging these idiots just gives the players and the FA belief everything is okay.
