Jeesus fookin Christ, can we just get the soggy arsed losers on the plane back now so we can get on with the world cup without them.
I don't need or want to hear about England every 5 minutes when I am watching the other games.

Actually what England needs to do, is to perfect a victory dance and then we'll win as we need to show off...

Originally posted by darmstadt View PostOkay, it depends on what you mean by 'anything of consequence' but England did win the home International back in 1983 and then the Rous Cup in 1989 (Chile came 3rd.) They also won the FIFA Fair Play trophy in 1998
Though large numbers of travelling Scots to London had been a feature of England-Scotland games for many years, travelling English support to Glasgow was negligible in comparison until 1987 when minor scuffles broke out on the Hampden Park terracing. In 1989, major disturbances across Glasgow were reported as significant numbers of English hooligans appeared at this fixture for the first time. With English club sides banned from European football at the time, the FA were anxious not to see the national side banned too and the Scotland-England match was a high profile game that brought interest from across the world. This was a major factor in the demise of the fixture.

I'm talking about 48 years of failing to win anything of consequence; that isn't luck.
