it's great that during the 90 minutes of international football, we're all united (most of the time) with allegiances put aside temporarily.
if somebody cocks up, he's not a useless english twat but a 'whatever' club twat!!


on the subject of johnson, yes theres a bit of a witchhunt & the press do go overboard with some of their comments.
you only have to read some of their weekly match reports.
sometimes you have to wonder whether they were actually at the game or maybe they just don't really know much about football, probably having never played the game

it was a terrific performance against a decent side (who are ranked in the world top ten !)
with the current squad, plus the return of players like j cole, walcott & ferdinand & the possible emergence of a couple of the younger fringe players, i think we will go to south africa as serious contenders.
yes we've gone to previous tournaments with good quality teams, but never have we gone with a squad that has so much quality in depth.
