At least we did well in the cricket!

The english team got complacent and started playing silly buggers. The goalie was too busy watching the ball sail into the back of the net than trying to save it, then dived and proceeded to cause another penalty kick.Originally Posted by RoGuE|SaBeR
Tbh, i'd blame ur goalie, not the french, they were playing footy.
I also thought that rooney was being a right rubbishrubbishrubbishrubbish and should have been taken off (or sent off) a lot sooner.
BTW, believe it or not, i was backing england till they started their nonsense

Hmm. I feel that you are wrong. Rooney wasa live wire. Little Michael Owen on the other hand was poo. Although James is officially poo, the free kick was unsavable and the 2nd goal was gerrards fault. There. I said it. I still agree that heskey is poo tho.

Great post by the way Rouge (the summing up above this one). Have a rep point.
I am <-------------> that gutted.
Why thank you my good man
Cept it's ROGUE, not rouge
My humble appologies good sir. Rogue, have you a point on me.Originally Posted by RoGuE|SaBeR
Right, now we can hammer the Swiss and Croatia, and put this nightmare behind us. (We hope)
I mean seriously, using FRENCH at a time like this!?!?!
Crazy fool!
Excusez-moi.
Now, King to stay in the team when Terry is fit, or drop him for Terry regardless of his man-of-the-match (almost) display against the French?
I thought it was a good match up until about the 90th minute...
Oh well, its only the first match, its not the last!

NOTHING TO BE SEE HERE, MOVE ALONG PLEASE....
:: of all the things i've lost i miss my mind the most ::
TBH i blame Sven. After he started with his substitutes, everything went wrong. Why take Rooney off?!?! He was doing excellent! Sven should've subbed Owen i think.
I agree, certainly had me on the edge of my seat! Defense was solid, midfeild also, and Owen might have well have been sent off! Anyone spot where he was hiding? lol. We fell apart at the 90min mark, thought it was ours...sadly, we learnt the hard way. Still, games left.... /me crosses fingers.I thought it was a good match up until about the 90th minute...
Defence was solid till Heskey decided to bungle someone down just outside the box. FFS did he not realise doing that would put the best footballer in the world over the ball and one final chance to score against us.
despite playing well, rooney was getting a bit feisty & imho one more dodgy challenge & he'd have definitely ended up with a card, just my 2pOriginally Posted by Clstrphbc_donut
beckham missing a penalty tho - ffs, at that level thats inexcusable
if it ain't broke...fix it till it is
I would go as far to say he didn't miss. It was saved. It wasn't a bad penalty, good save by that a**hole Barthez.
I blame it on Hesky (See latest thread).
EDIT - Don't see latest thread, keep all discussion about Euro 2004 in this thread only.
Cheers,
Vaul.
