Ahem! To be fair you don't go 22 games unbeaten by being disorganised. I thought France looked very good but were frustrated by England's two banks of four every time they attacked. Roy Hodgson has got us organised (that word again) defensively which is the first thing you have to do. Organisation starts at the back. If we can be more offensive and creative without shirking our defensive responsibilities it's possible we can do a lot better in this tournament. I feel we still have to be very cautious with our work without forgetting our attacking instincts if we are to progress any further. Just a little more positivity in midfield and sharpness in our finishing up front and I think we can go a little further in this competition.

I always wondered what it would be like to see somebody repeatedly tongue their own anus in front of a bemused crowd. Now I know.



With a better-than-50% chance of any drawn teams Having been to war with each other within the last century, the European championships are blessed with that extra subconscious (or not) frisson that the World Cup often lacks.



Adrian Chiles though.. Toby jug of warm piss. 'Nuff said.

I disagree and I know that El Pibe haved defended you in the past. You've just taken this opportunity to give a punch under the guise of the blame game. No doubt, *Bob* has done the same thing too.

Fair enough jah, I'm happy to retract the word. Sloppy perhaps, timid maybe, blunt, illiquid.

Far less the threat that they look on paper, England a little more.


And bob, harsh, I'm rather partial to the chiles charm, and as for that frisson I don't know what you're talking about, I mean what's more innocent than Poland-Russia....oh...erm, France-England....bugger, Germany-holland? Oops, ah well, Russia-Czech republic, damn......

Otta, you really should watch your tone. Gerrard should never have turned his back to a shot bearing in mind that he is playing in a major tournament. It has nothing to do with him being a Liverpool player.


eta: another Otta's comment designed to caused difficulties for myself.


@bon3yard


You're absolutey right.

You just don't understand, Otta. Puffing around the local school playing field playing field amateur football on the weekend gives you a unique insight into the professional game which no-one could hope to surpass.


Anyway.. Back to more pressing questions. Has Alan Hansen had a bit of work done since.. Well.. since the last World Cup?

    • Oh now you're coming over all defensive. What happened to the nice Sue, because since the early part of the year your approach seems to have changed and you've become much more challenging. No you have not broken any rules and even if you had why would I involve Admin, that's a ludicrous thing to say.  Take care Sue. 
    • I was the opposite of you. I never felt particularly happy around Brixton late at night - I didn't know it that well. Do you remember the name of the late- night Irish pub opposite the railway arches near the BR station? Was it Mulligan's? Brannigan's? To be fair, until the East London Line extension, Rye Lane walking south wasn't a favourite of mine after dark either. The only pub left on there was The Hope, which was in the other direction. It felt very bleak. I think that makes a huge difference. When The Gowlett was boarded up, Adys Road felt very different. It's like a beacon now. Pub violence does seem to have had its day in inner London. Maybe it's a result of the disappearance of pool tables, flat-roofed pubs and cheap Stella offers. I bet you could still find a Saturday night kick-up in New Addington or the  Becontree estate in Dagenham. Definitely. Pubs next to stations, kebab shops and ironically named nightclubs are all to be avoided in smaller places. The weirdest place I've ever had random trouble was in a club in St. Ives in Cambridgeshire.  I think it was called 'Options'. It was the only club there.  See also 'Jekylls' nightclub in Hyde, Manchester - a truly dreadful place where getting thrown out for fighting was infinitely preferable to spending the evening in there and coming out stinking of stale chip fat. I took a kicking in 'Kingsway Kebabs' in Swansea after a night in 'The Aviary' (so named because it was 'full of birds') nightclub. But that wasn't so random. It was a local girl, who gave me a leathering because I'd run off for a large chicken doner, rather than dance with her to 'Criticize' by Alexander O'Neal. Sorry, Sue, I've digressed a little.  To answer your question, I think London feels relatively safe overall.  
    • I’m happy to report that I got a much earlier prescription review than the 22 September.  Not sure what that was down to but I was sent a text to say to expect a telephone call on a certain day and time for earlier this week.  It was with a pharmacist and not a doctor.  I was later told to expect a telephone call on call on both the 19 and 23 September.  They are really pushing the boat out. Not complaining. Also, Dr. Shivji is back working.
    • "Firing"? "Demanding"? A "habit on here of 'demanding' answers"?  Crikey. I didn't say you "should" do anything! This is a forum.  For discussion. I will say whatever I like and ask whatever I like,  within the forum rules, as can anybody else  Please move your issues with me to the thread I have started in the lounge on feeling safe in London, because this is a thread about a burglary in Lacon Road. If you continue to post your complaints about me on this thread, I shall not respond, so do feel free. Or if you think I have broken any forum rules, do feel free to report me to admin.
