Thanks Gareth for 8 years of improvement from the mess you took over in 2016. Maybe a new manager can take this squad one step further in the World Cup in America in 2026. I certainly hope so as god willing there’s no way I’m going to miss it. 🤞🙏⚽️

Valiant effort by England! No complaints really, the best team won. It’s just depressing we can’t seem to win another trophy. No problem with Southgate’s management of the game. Tired legs failed in the end, but we gave it a helluva try.

Probably best to unlock this thread and let the tumbleweed fly away into the ether.

Customer i’ve had for a good few years, (not seen him for about 5) was in to chat about new heating solutions.
Obviously i start with, “Hi there, Jonathan, what about last night EH?” An upward accent on the “EH?” ….. as if to signify, … you know, “EH, WHAT ABOUT THAT??!” ……. To which he replied, “Devastated mate.”
🤔🤔 Didnt realise he was from Durham. He’s been married to a Scottish lassie waaaaaay too long.
Had to do the old re-shuffle “Aye, man. Unlucky eh. Was close. Header off the line and that!”
:shock:

But, we’ve got no hope to try and be favouring England……. Especially when the castle is lit up red & yellow at 10pm last night! 🤦‍♂️

I’ll go unlock 🤦‍♂️

That castle pic is from the internet....., but i've actually got a pic on my phone from last night. No idea how to get it onto here though. Couldn't believe what I was seeing driving along the Braid Hills Road.

On vacation around far reach of Southern Ireland. Thought ahead of time could be a suitable place to get away from the FInal game and take in some sights but somehow managed to encounter significant number of English all wearing national colors and making route for drinking establishments or some other such venue. Kind of questioned why so many English walking about in far south of Ireland, things passed off peacefully, guess they were kind of accepted.

Relief above all else to have won. Best team without question got the victory both on the night and competition overall. English improved in tournament after a very slow start but no chance in hell they deserved outright victory. They did well from the last four onward but we're always going to be at a disadvantage after such a poor start. Best team won it, there.can he no dispute. It were a deserved victory.
