Cheers, for some reason the "find" feature in Safari wasn't seeing that. I'm surprised they're ranked below Scotland and NI TBH.

Don't worry Gav, I get it! And I'll put money on it that England do better than Wales. Going on the last couple of world cups, we tend to perform quite well.

Performance has nothing to do with it, England always get the easiest group! I'd be shocked if England didn't do better than Wales, it's not until they get out of the pools that they get a hard game! We've got the world champions in ours!

Oh dear Gav, starting with the excuses already? In 2007 England had SA in their group and still got to the final.

And Scotland are out!  Serves them right*. * I used to support them in the euros/world cup, until I was there and saw how bigoted they were towards England.

Woah there, that's quite a statement. If Scotland were playing France I think I'd be neutral. I certainly wouldn't watch the game.

Once again I was at the game last night and I must say the atmosphere was electric. (Certainly where I was sitting anyway) I think the fans have really started getting behind every player and even when mistakes where made, the players were still applauded.
It was good to see Eduardo get a bit of stick, but I think the man who took the most abuse was the Croatian fan who ran onto the pitch after they scored. A steward punched him in the face. Allegedly
Great performance last night, and many are saying that Croatia played badly, I think it was more a case of England making them look bad.
Let's not get carried away though, 8 wins out of 8 is excellent, and I have every confidence we can go and do well in SA next year. But it's a little way away yet and the competition out there is going to be tougher than anything we've faced in qualifying so far.
In conclusion then, great game, great performance, great result, stuffed the Croatians, qualified for the World Cup, Capello actually smiled and I have a sore throat.

Because of the football, I assume?

It serves us right? How does it serve us right? Because you asume all Scotland fans are the same. Ridiculous. Edit: Just to add i thought last night the team were outstanding, gave it everything, couldnt ask for more.

I support Scotland (unless they play England), mainly because of this man:
