What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
Ouch
I'm sure that's not right, is it?Originally Posted by GP
Certainly is.

Flip, just checked, it's true. Not that I didn't believe you but it's just such a poor stat.
If you include the Euros I don't think you add many more.
It's a really shit record.

It’s a really shit team.
It is now but historically it hasn't always been so. I remember Italia '90, Euro '96 and France '98 very well and on all 3 occasions we went toe to toe with one of the big countries and on the night could have won it.
96 in particular, Gazza's outstretched boot...we were an inch away from winning that tournament.
Now we're struggling to get out of the group or having embarrassing defeats to teams like Iceland
Corrected for youor having amusing defeats to teams like Iceland
I doubt i'll bother with england tbf, i' d much rather watch Argentina, Germany, France, Portugal, Egypt, S Korea...actually pretty much anyone except a side that's got loads of spuds players and to which our only contribution is Welbeck - now that IS embarrassing...
