Post-Match Thread and Ratings England v Slovakia 30th Jun2024 17:00hrs ko.

[Holy Joe]

Southgate’s a tactical genius !!

All part of the plan - all going to script so far

 

[Leeboy]

i’ll say it again- never in doubt

 

[Cricko]

We go ahead and all drop back now inviting them on.

 

[Tinks]

I really can’t watch

 

[Holy Joe]

We better not sit back for the next 30 mins

On the evidence of the last 10 mins - we are

 

[Holy Joe]

Shocking

So on we go to the quarter finals and Switzerland. You just never know what will happen when this England team are on the pitch. Complete dross from the team for most of the match then up pops Bellingham and Harry. Best part of the game for me was half time with a wagyu burger in a ciabatta roll and skinny fries, washed down with a few cans of Peroni.

Still, we now have yet another match to build some more abuse and fury to wards the team.

I must be watching the wrong tournament. England favourites again at 7/2. Germany 4/1, Spain 9/2 and France 6/1. Don't forget we didn't get a shot on target until the 95th minute.
There's only one team I would want to be on money wise, and that's Germany. But I can't bring myself to back against England.

The managers done that to himself. Until Bellingham saved him he was signing his own death warrant on live tv with his tactics and subs.

We’ve got through but that was woeful.

England will always be one of the favourites because they'll be heavily backed. The bookies would go bankrupt if England won and the bookies had them at 12/1.

As Rudyard Kippling said:

"If you can keep your head when all about you
are losing there's and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;"

 

[Massimo Giovanni]

A very difficult watch. The ingredients are all there for a winning, flowing team yet so out of shape, style, form, balance, ideas.

 

[Southminster Shrimper]

Did not even cheer for either England goal. I had no emotion, really weird. Normally i'd be going mental scoring at the death. Maybe the last few years of supporting the Blues is causing me to just hate football!

The way they are celebrating is embarrassing. Should think themselves lucky they’ve got through.

Feel for Slovakia they genuinely were the better team and nipped at the last minute.

Need to seriously change things if we want to progress.

However bad we were, I disagree that Slovakia were the better team. We were far better than them even though we were poor.

I don’t feel for Slovakia one bit, dirty tactics along with time wasting when 1-0 up, ref was even poor, still it’s hard to say England deserved it when they didn’t, neither do Slovakia deserve this as I don’t think they did enough.

Southgate - tactical genius
