Football World Cup Draw For Brazil 2014

[bluewolf]

Don't worry Danny boy, the Latics are trying their best to bring those days back for you..... :whoo:

Koff you. I'm nearly in tears here about the state that your countryman has left my club in. I'll never trust a Scot in charge again..:angry:

I wish there was a way to get back to the old roots - watching with my uncle ( god rest his soul ) and just loving the passion.

The Premier League has ruined football IMO

Agreed, and it's spreading its dirty little wings into the Championship and League 1..

It will keep going - even more so when BT come along offering billion pound contracts

 

[Old Skier]

Indeed, can't remember serving with many people who joined through patriotism though tbh

Boo Hoo Hoo, we didn't get the easy group we wanted, actually cried myself to sleep last night. That's a lie, we are England, either wear your three lions and support the team or sit watching soaps with your missus.

Or move to Liverpool

CRAWLEY even managed to bring it down to the Conference.

It really takes me back to when I started watching Latics in the Northern Premier and the old 4th Division. Proper football..:thup:

I guess you are harking back to the days of no automatic relegations/ promotion to and from the old div 4? A crap system that kept potentially decent teams out unless everyone else fancied them. You could finish bottom of the 4th years on end and still survive, jesus, I remember Workington being in the 4th and condeding over a hundred goals.

Sherpa Van Trophy 1988, my team wolves v Burnley, both div 4 teams, over 80,000 in the old Wembley. Drunk? invent a new word

Coyle was Irish. Well, at least as Irish as the rest of the Scots that played for RoI at that time!!

I agree with you, going to go to a few games for my old team this season, even at Bloomfield road now its very EPL in. Nouveau riche type of way. Well, as much as Blackpool can do that sort of thing

If Tom Cleverly & Danny Welbeck get injured before the tournament then we might have a chance.

I agree with most of that statement apart from the "chance" bit
Then again you did miss out Milner, Young, Carrick etc etc :thup:

Good post .......... spot on :thup:.

If England are to have any chance of over-acheiving, Carrick MUST play ................... end of.
Milner & Young should not be there, obviously. Welbeck should be there & Cleverly is going to have to have a hell of a good season to prove himself ................ and I hope he does. We need youngsters coming through, regardless of which club they play for!

Slime.

Personally I think Cleverly is playing as well as he can.

We'll have to agree to disagree on this one.
Gives away the ball too cheaply, too often IMO. Doesn't look comfotable with ball at feel when the heat is on and bottles it under pressure.

Indeed, you can't just suddenly become talented, if you ain't got it by the time you're 18 or 20 ish then you just ain't gonna get it.
You can't teach vision and first touch.

Are you on a mission to piss off everyone on the forum?

:rofl::clap:

@L'poolPhil. Where were you for the 'Tactical Retreat' training?

Club before Country has been a major problem for years - not just since Bosman.

Hodgson is one of the best England coaches imo, but I don't see them doing particularly well and now even getting out of the Group looks tough - but wouldn't be a disgrace imo.

Don't set him off again FGS.

Couldn't help yourself - had to make a comment. Getting a bit obsessed, maybe I should be worried for my bunny.

I don't think it's any coincidence that since Carrick has been injured Man Utd have gone totally tits up.

Carrick has always done very well for Mancs but disappointed for England.

The best thing for England is to introduce a lot of the youngsters - players like Barkley and Zaha and Berhami.

It's what Germany did - move a very successful Under 21 team up to the national team together

How can you play Zaha when he can't get a place on the bench for a side that's currently 9th??

Quite right, and after watching Barkley today against Arsenal he's a definite shoe-in.

He reminds me of a young Paul Gascoine - only not so nutty!

My comment was based on his international performaces, in the Premier League he's playing against moderate players at best barring the odd one or two quality players.
