I HE THERE BEATING ICELAND????????WHOPEEEEEEEEEEE.

You've got to laugh though - St.David of Beckham on 100,000 a week and can't kick a frigging ball straight!

Good luck to the Dutch.

there like a load of chickens in a farm yard allways on the move,,,but allways in the same ****.

England v Wales of course Dave

van the man,,is looking handy for the dutch.are you on anak pekan in the plate?

told u AdieH that england would get knocked out.........didnt expect so though to a poor portugal team.

Thought a decent team would be require to beat them

Might get some peace and quiet now on tv and fropm the media.

Tea and sympathy is available all day in the tea-rooms for
depressed England fans....

Scotinvestor, At least we had a team in the finals... Oh well.

What would have happened if Rooney was not injured ?

how typical.....national frenzy, optimism.....but in reality crap..hey, if beckams on 60,000 a week for kicking a ball about, yuou'd expect him to hit roughly the right area from the penalty spot......I think he and vassell should be "sacked" for gross misconduct as would most professionals in any walk of life who missed such an easy target....(If i fucked up that bad I would be!)

beckhams penalty was a disgrace - he's now missed 3 times on the trot. He's vastly over-rated, only thing he can really do is cross a ball.

at least vassall hit the target and required a decent save from the goalie

If Rooney was not injured he would have scored two great goals and had them both disallowed

my local 99 pence shop is doing a deal,,to get people in.with every spot kick missed,,you get a free full bag of excuses. take it on the chin ... and move on.

I think Beckam cannot play well when he is captain.

Becks - only thing he can really do is cross a ball....

Believe he's crossed his wife once or twice too.

lots of excuses on here about why england didn't win.... at the end of the day it was a good game. i don't think vassell deserves any negative talk because his shoot was on (unlike beckhams). thats football, you can't win them all, and Portugal deserve a bit of luck once in a while too.

skids
Portugal Sporter

well said skids,a realist .

edd carter more like olivers army

now id like to point something out to the poor we lost soals who lost last night

sven takes it on the chin and stands up proud(his scandinavian up bringing)

what do the fans do

riot

what more can i say

angry nation angry people
chip as big as the sea of tranquility(thats on the moon for those that dont no)

im british not english and i hate being coraled with these clowns who claim to be football supporters but probably dont even own a season book of any team

england unlucky good try pick yourselfs up and dust your selfs down and try again
you have the makings of an oustanding team and a manager that seems to know what hes about

but plz plz get ride of the clowns they give the place a bad name(britain i mean(englands name has always been bad))

jokin(moron)

Nice to see the Jocks having a laugh - British vermin of the highest order.

Re: Penalties - As any footballer/fan will tell you there really a lottery/nerve test. Statistically we've had such a bad run that the tables will turn eventually.

As many have noted England aren't the team that the media/armchair brigade have painted. Those that can hold their heads high include the Evertonian, Cole, and Neville, but as a Chelsea boy I for one do not want Gerard at the Bridge. Too many wasted passes imo, and yesterdays midfield was absent. (Lamps with Gerard).
Hopefully Sven will learn not to rely on Heskey, and persist so much with an out of form Owen/Beckham - although both will bounce back.

And whilst the sweaties are enjoying their moment can I remind them of Euro 96, when they both lost the match, having missed from the spot.

fundy,,you better get on the czech`s,mate.only saw the last twenty mins,,,pain.

Flackwell

"Nice to see the Jocks having a laugh - British vermin of the highest order"

Oh really....you are a sad ignorant peasant...many of us have very good friends from south of the border and I for one was not laughing at the elimination of the only British team in the competition. Why don't you slink back to the gutter from whence you've come.
