We still believe, we still believe
It's coming home,
It's coming home, it's coming
Football's coming home
It's coming home,
It's coming home, it's coming

Football's coming home
Tears for heroes dressed in grey
No plans for final day
Stay in bed,drift away
It could have been all

Songs in the street
It was nearly complete
It was nearly so sweet
And now I'm singing
three lions on a shirt
Jules Rimet still gleaming

No more years of hurt
No more need for dreaming
Talk about football coming home
and then one night in Rome
We were strong,we had grown
Now I see Ince ready for war

Gazza good as before
Shearer certain to score
And Psycho Screaming
Three lions on a shirt
Jules Rimet still gleaming
30 years of hurt

Never stopped me dreaming
I know that was then
But i could happen again

It's coming home,
It's coming home, it's coming
Football's coming home
It's coming home,
It's coming home, it's coming
Football's coming home
It's coming home,
It's coming home, it's coming
Football's coming home
It's coming home,
It's coming home, it's coming
Football's coming home
It's coming home,
It's coming home, it's coming
Football's coming home

Three lions the shirts
Jules Rimet still gleaming
30 years of hurt
Never stopped me dreaming
Three lions on a shirt
Jules Rimet still gleaming
30 years of hurt
Never stopped me dreaming

ENGLAND ! (clapping)
ENGLAND! (clapping)
ENGLAND! (clapping)
ENGLAND! (clapping)
 
As the WC goes on and on, I find myself really wanting England to win it. What's going on?! I still think it's the Southgate influence... jolly lovely bloke, he is.
 
So, we've had all this talk about whether it's best to finish 2nd or not, but we know Gareth is never going to send the team out looking for anything less than a win, so it's a non-starter.

But...

If we're drawing with ten minutes left, would he instruct the boys to pick up a bunch of cards so we can drop to 2nd on fair play?? Maybe even send Welbeck on from the bench and tell him to give the ref a slap and pick up a red card! That'd do the trick without losing the game and 'losing momentum'. Genius! :D

Throw on Cahill and let him score another own goal 😂

FIFA have already said that anyone obviously "engineering themselves cautions" (my wording) with a view to worsening their teams disciplinary record in order to affect the group outcome, will be banned for the next match.

Don't ask me how they are going to judge....but they have done this in the past.

How does that work? You get a red card you're banned for the next match anyway... :confused:

Yep, that's the one. I didn't want Rooney to get a medal, or Ashley Cole, or Terry to name a few others, for similar reasons. It's about moral fibre, or lack of it. I am a bit old fashioned like that.

They are not fit to lace the boots of Englands previous winners.

Which team could win then if we are throwing morals in to it? It's going to be a pretty short list methinks.
