I was referring to a domestic game being live on one or other of the main channels but somehow forgot to mention that bit!

Surely Japan’s exploits have to constitute footballing terrorism? Turning up at the World Cup and beating Germany to then lose to Costa Rica. I sometimes think that nation exists purely to fu(k with everyone else’s minds!
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

Like when Japan beat South Africa at Rugby Shame they didn't beat England too - if we could get rid of Eddie Jones.

If memory serves me correctly its because we did so badly in that tournament that Eddie Jones was appointed. Didn't we get beaten by Wales ( making a mess of a last minute play where we should have come inside instead of going down the line which was easier to defend) & failed to get out of our group ?

Yes, I think your last paragraph is really only the one area that we would completely agree on.... Edited by Stirlingsays (27 Nov 2022 2.39am) This has probably veered too far away from the OP and I disagree with your views to such an extent that there is little point in either of us spending any more time on this. In other news, Morocco beat Belgium! A World Cup that keeps throwing up surprises. England take note.

Didn't get out of our group on a home world cup. However, there was progress maybe 2-3 years ago, but a downward trajectory ever since. Look like also rans in the upcoming world cup in France. Only thing that could possibly save it - sack Jones.

Shame, they always got along so well! In other news, is anybody as fortunate as I to sit at home half working, half watching the WC? Cameroon vs Serbia certainly shook the theme of the bore, goalless draw!
