England - Croatia, crucial Euro 2008 qualifier

[BacheLot]

lol, i cant believe they suck this bad...!

[persian boy]

heart breaker for english fans, im neutral with england, neither hate them or love them

better luck next time

[Suprah]

and thats ONLY because of the foreign influence.

Scholes, Giggs, Irwin, the Nevilles, Pallister, Bruce, Sheringham, Andy Cole, Beckham, Best, Charlton, Law, Robson, Rooney, Rio.....hardly a 'foreign' contingent over the past 50 odd years my friend compared to what Real and Milan have had and bought for the same period

We just use our players better and more wiser...England treats them like shit and hence we have ALWAYS been better than England - football wise as well as support wise.

Observe what the commentator says.

This was a sad performance for England, Croatia is good but they gave them too much respect and space for Eduardo and Kronkjar to run around in the first half. McClaren is an idiot w/no tactics whatsoever

i saw the highlights what a crap performance for england especially that there was sooo much on the line

Who was Carson (the keeper) ?? He kinda ruined the game with his IPL style sooti

reedy boo midi
english say they created football but their is evidence to suggest the chinese were playing such game long before the english even had civiliziation.

Wow, were you roughed-up by an English hooligan when you were young or something? Chillout.

I'll agree with you on one thing -- humans kicking a round ball for leisure has been taking place for centuries, from the Mongolians (using human heads sometimes!) to the Romans (using human heads sometimes!).

But the British formalized soccer, like a lot of other things. Hence the term "Association" football.

Put it this way: There would be no FIFA and no World Cup without England's role in the sport. In fact, FIFA's committee in charge of the 'Laws of the Game' is still exclusively held by British members.

maybe they organised it but they by no means invented it!

Iranians created human rights during Cyrus the Great era just because someone else put it on paper doesn't mean it originated from them!

Croatia is AMAZING.
I'm happy England went out, now their stupid fans and press can stop acting like their team is on teh same level as the Great Nations of Football.

this is why i dislike (hate is a strong word) england very much. i will definately enjoy euro 2008 much better now that england won't be there and every second article i read won't be about england or beckham (god forbid)
