f***!! Rooney. SCUFF

 

[jimhigham]

AAAAAAAAGGGGGHHH!

Post!

Goalkeeper's fingertips slightly too long!

 

[perseus]

Replay shows the keeper got a touch to the Rooney goal-bound shot. He should have scored and so should have Terry from the corner.

Come on, Mum, nobody enjoys these do or die games, do they? For me it's much more fun supporting New Zealand, where expectations are zero.

True. We should bring on Heskey. Expectation is zero there.

 

[nwgull]

I really hope we score in the next 15 mins, I couldn't take the tension of sitting on a 1-0 lead for the last 10!

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

so should have Terry from the corner.

Are you mad ? (don't answer that).

It was a jump and a tight angle with a keeper on the line. Terry did bloomin' well there.

 

[The Wizard]

Brilliant defending.

 

[perseus]

Panic stations in the English defence

 

[Acker79]

No, lawro, it didn't come about because Barry tried a "rinky dink pass" it came about because he did exactly what you said Upson should have done instead of playing it safe, retain possession and passing it back to James.

 

[The Wizard]

Guy and Lawro need to get a room!

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

Terry - my MoM.

 

[Willow]

Terry - my MoM.

Agreed. And what does that tell you?

 

[The Wizard]

Terry - my MoM.

Two words - Ashley Cole

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

Agreed. And what does that tell you?

You can be a git and a top player ?

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

Two words - Ashley Cole

Yep - he has done well.

 

[Willow]

Fot fucks sake, just score another goal! Why do they always do this?

 

[Willow]

You can be a git and a top player ?

Yes, and that we have been toothless in attack again. If only we had a POACHER with a PROVEN international goalscoring record on the bench.

 

[perseus]

Good job we got the goal and Slovenia are useless. It could have been agony.

 

[nwgull]

Sake! I sense heartbreak.....
