England down and almost out of Euro 2008

England needing just a draw and a point against Croatia are 0-2 at half-time at Wembley. Croatia have already qualifed for 2008 Euro Championship.

lol

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

England have new hope, Lampard scores thru penalty

score England 1-2 Croatia with 30 minutes to go

Tomorrow's tablod headlines will be interesting for sure if England can't atleast draw - enough for them to advance to 2008 Euro Championships - here.

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

England have equalised, Crouch scoring from a quality Beckham pass in 65th minute

2-2 and if the score stays like this England are thru...

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

Lol Croatia score again (77th minute)

3-2 and England are almost out

Steve Mc Laren's days as English coach are surely numbered now

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

It's all over for England, beaten 2-3 by Croatia and enough of me talking to myself! The match sure had a few twists but Croatia I felt were the better team over the 90 minutes and deserved to win.

Can't wait for tomorrow's tabloids.

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

Mclaren will be looking for a new job tomorrow.

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

Croatia fully deserve the win. I don't think it was a penalty for England first goal.

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

^ That was lucky and Croatia could have actually won by a margin of 4-5 goals

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

I am so fookin pleased that england lost, I wish croatia had beaten us 7-0 or some shyt like that, this is the only damn wau FA is going to get a wakeup call, they blew a chance when they did not pursue scolari and instead got this caricature of a manager steve-o due to jingoistyic attitudes of yob pleasing nutter sports rag journalists. This was the only way that mclaren would be out, otherwise ppl would have forgotten about his lame approach and he would have stayed on for world cup.

yaaaar forf our loss, I have never been so excited to see my team lose.

Now...lets kick this baffoon out, and get jose mourinho to take over.

Or FA can be a buncha nutjobs again, and get some other mediocre english manager and get mediocre results again.

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

A summer of football without England. :(

I don't see Jose managing England, he made that clear when he departed Chelsea, maybe in the future perhaps, but at this time i don't see it happening.

Who is going to be our saviour???

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

even in prem league u can find better folks, I never got why they picked mclaren if they wanted a change from sven...i mean mclaren was his right hand man, and vennbles as his asst? prolly would be beter if it was other way around.

anyways..I have full faith that FA is going to make yet another idiotic decision..oniell from villa for example..

if england does not get a world class manager, then

btw time is right for Jose. where would he go after chelsea, Barca? he can do 2 yrs here, get england thru world cup and then go to some club then.

lets see.

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

Hahahahahahahahahaha

England is out! :-D

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

:smack:

I dnt think England could ever win any big title :crying:

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

That was really a shock of a result. After Isral did them a huge favor on saturday, I expected England to scrape through to finals. But that third goal was a nail in the coffin.

But they just didnt qualify yesterday. Failure to beat the likes of macedonia at home was the thing that finally did them. Mclaren was always confused with his team and formation.

X2- O'Neill is a much better coach than Mclaren ever was and even if England can't get the likes of Jose and Capello (who by the way showed interest), O'Neill wont be a catastrophic choice. Capello might get it though. Jose will be at inter next season ;)

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

and McLaren gets the boot!

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

At this point, i only see Capello getting the job, he's currently out of work and has for the rest of the potential candidates, they've made it clear that they are not interested at present.

Capello's been a success wherever he has managed, Capello for the England job.

Look where i come from n u'll realise how big thr grin was on my face last night :D

Re: England down and almost out of Euro 2008

one has to admit, the Dutch coaches are just toooooooo good.

let’s see what they have achieved the last year:

Van Basten qualifies with the Dutch
‘Don’ Leo Beenhakker qualifies with Poland - the first time for the country after a lot of years
Guus Hiddink (that man again! remember S korea and Australia ;))qualifies with Russia (in front of England :hula: )

non-national coaches:
Dick ‘the general’ Advocaat won the Russian title with Zenit Petersburg after more than a decade for the club

Rijkaard finished second in the primera division after two back to back titles

only disappointment has been Dick Jol who got fired at Tottenham.
