The Curse of Hackery Strikes

Well 2-0 to Croatia, as I wished for, not wanting to sound cocky or anything. Sounded terrible on the radio, a looping header over the goalie from an unmarked Croat and the second involving a back pass from the Neville and a Robinson cockup as the ball bobbles over his foot into the goal. I have to watch this on the telly. And yes the second was such a laugh. You make your own luck and if you're tosspots, you get tosspot luck. Still it's good to see McClaren is better than Sven, who just used to sit there pursing his lips as his rickety schemes wobbled and collapsed about his ears. At least McClaren sits there as his bollocky schemes fall to pieces and makes fucking notes. What the fuck is he writing down? They're not very good, they don't seem to be trying. You load of useless tosspots. New levels have been reached as the Northern Ireland fans sang to the Latvians, "Are You England in Disguise?" You sorry bunch of hoof-footed, over-paid wank-artists.

Here's somebody more pissed off than I am, Do I Not Like That.....

"Now we know for sure that Steve McClaren is not Sven Mk II: England would never, ever have lost this badly under the managership of Sven-Goran Eriksson. This was a shambles; a proper doing; a miserable, cowering performance that evoked the darkest days of Graham Taylor - chiefly the dismal 2-0 defeat in Norway in 1993." Rob Smyth
