Fed up with World Cup fever

I think the comments that England fan, June 25th England v Ecuador ( 1-1 ), Willy and Mark make are sort of proving our point. "England are definately going to be booted out in the next round".. We don't care. "They played like"... we don't care. "How pathetic...playing one striker up front on his own with no support"... we don't care. If we wanted to watch it we would. We don't that's the whole point of this gripe. We don't want to watch it, or get blow by blow accounts, or be told what should have been done, or how someone should have played.

Two points to make,
1) No other world cup event gets even close to this hype, making them infinitely preferrable. I love cricket and rugby, but this level of stupidity would put me off any sport. I just thank God that so few people in England actually care about rugby or cricket until those exceptionally rare moments when they might win something.

2) Why, for the past 6 months, has the lead on the news been about the health of a specific individual whom I can't imagine the majority of people letting into their house. That said, having been draged to watch the England's final match, I giggled heartily when he got sent off. Not that I dislike England, I just love seeing such a complete moron, in whom the hopes of a nation lie, being punished for acting like a child.

Thank god this farcical side show is over for England...maybe the country can get back to normal and forget that bungling Swede and his totally useless tactics! How pathetic...playing one striker up front on his own with no support! How could anyone have squandered the best players this country has to offer on such a flawed game plan? International football as far as England are concerned is pointless, the players who are paid by their clubs just couldn't care less about playing for their country..who can blame them with such poor leadership? Rubbish manager, rubbish FA and tactics designed to kill the game! Truly sad and truly pathetic.

You see, Willy - that's why I don't have any interest at all in football!

Well Engand are OUT. Lost on penalties AGAIN, and Beckham bows out of being captain.

Didn't they NOT do well. All the excuses you can think of,but the only one that's true,

Their ALL Bloody USELESS.

I think the World Cup is great! Particularly when there's an England match is on. We're able to go to a restaurant, the beach, a picnic, shopping... and no riff raff in sight! They're all sitting round the box, quaffing lager and swearing at the referee instead of annoying the life out of decent folk in public places.

Why are there a bunch of semi-illiterates on these pages who can't spell and think that grammer is some fraction of a 'foreign' kilogram? Ha ha. England isn't what it used to be - a highly regarded nation. Now it's the scum of Europe, and little wonder. People don't even have a clue how to dress properly, never mind speak or spell. Especially you football lot.

Well you were wrong on the score it was 1-0. But I do agree Englang are playing like a bunch of nancies.They have'nt played a DECENT team YET, and when they do, Engand are COMING HOME their coming home.

Oh, and my prediction for the next match England v Ecuador - it's straight forward. England have been lucky up until now but it will be a 1-1 draw. Ecuador will score in the final 10 minutes of the game. See if I am right!

England are definately going to be booted out in the next round. They don't stand a chance with the other teams like Argentina and Germany. Just my opinion.

I dont see the point in football they get pay millions for kicking a ball big woop I kicked a ball oh my god all you people that like football arnt cool but if you are one of my friends that like football then I still love you even though you arnt cool haha only jokin I dont care who likes football I just think it is a waste of time

omg I h8 football but I actually sat and watch the whole of the first match and the second half of the sencond game and I might even watch the one on tuesday I dunno I just hope that england win
