Sorry, I mean the easy games. Well, should be easy.Non games?
Shall we have a £10 charity bet. England win I'm happy to pay. England knocked out in quarters you pay. Semi knockout. No man's land. I'm so confident because to win you need World Class players, Yes? How many England players would get into a World 11 ? Maybe Harry Kane on the subs bench. That's it and that's why we can't win it. Simple.Ha! Famous last words.
Well, my thinking too.The last time England won the World Cup was 1966 right? That was also the last time CCFC finished in the top six. Until this season....
No frickin chanceWell, my thinking too.
Cov - Promoted? YES
City - Promoted? YES
City of Culture - Won? YES
England World Cup - Won? Hmmmm.......
I'm also thinking they will get knocked out in the QF's unfortunately.Shall we have a £10 charity bet. England win I'm happy to pay. England knocked out in quarters you pay. Semi knockout.

1990. Gazza and country in tears. So close.I'm also thinking they will get knocked out in the QF's unfortunately.
It's the England way.
When's the last time we got past the QF's?
Yeah, well, you say that, but two years ago would you have said Donald Trump would be president? That North Korea would come and negotiate? That Wales would get as far as they did in the Euros?No frickin chance
Really? Didn't know that. Surprised we didn't finish 5th to be honest.We've only got past the quarters of any tournament outside of England once in our history at Italia 90.
We finished third at Euro '68 too, but that was made up of four teams to begin with so probably shouldn't count as a great success.
Okay, but that's fine if we can do that in the one single tournament.We've only won 5 knockout games at the WC since '66

Yeah. Don bloody Howe!!! Grrrr!!!!Weirdly we we're knocked out of Spain '82 without losing a game.
Is this their manager agreeing to jump ship?Well Spain might as well not bother getting the flight out there if that press conference is to announce what I think it'll announce. What a circus! Terrific stuff!

Which is?
Hopefully the Euros sort the tournament out next time round. I was excited to see all the extra teams/games but the football was so poor in the group stage because the 3rd place teams went through and that just carried on through the tournament with a team winning that should have gone out in the group.Portugal two years ago are the inspiration I'm looking towards, didn't win a single group game and their only 90 min win in the entire tournament was in the semi. Proper grind.

So because he agreed to take the Madrid job after the tournament they were going to sack him? Madness.
Although the players rallying round to keep him could go either way.
