    absolutely hopeless...honestly felt at several points that they should loose, just so I don't have to watch them play any more.

    Shockingly bad.

    Not surprised here.

    We all surely know England are rubbish on the world stage? and have been for some time. Time to stop the press/pundits making you think England are better than they are. Wake up and smell the coffee.

    Biggest shocker today was USA not winning with that last goal disallowed.

    Well, I bet for a 0-0 tie so this worked out just fine

    But what happens if England and the US both win their next game?

    I don't understand why we get upset about it; individually England is full of World class players, but, collectivity we're just an average team. Dare I say, very much like France.

    The tactics were all wrong, and Rooney had a bad day so wasnt able to save the day.

    Worse than Portugal vs Ivory Coast? Im not sure, but definitely close!

    We had tactics??

    Honestly, I know nothing about football but even I could tell what a totally bobbins performance that was. Shocking. I don't know what's going on in the England camp but I've seen 9 year old kids play better than that.

    Urgh.

    I'm just glad I couldn't give a crap what the score was tonight.

    Otherwise I'd be extremely hacked off right now.

    I think it's hilarious, If we lose/draw against Slovenia it'll be curtains

    We honestly don't deserve to get any further from the looks of how we're playing.

    The only thing of interest during that match was that algerian Karim Ziani looked a bit like madduck.

    I may even decide to 'work' all day next wednesday and not sneak out/skive off early.

    I closed the browser tab not long after the end of the match, but I recall hearing the commentator saying that England would go through with a win against Slovenia. Is that guaranteed (not the win, but in the event of a win), or subject to some sort of goal differences of sort (I don't follow sports much)?
