Very disappointed with the racial abuse that Rashford, Sancho and Saka have been receiving on social media. And there's probably another UEFA fine on the way for the 'storming' of the stadium by ticketless fans before the match, like Heysel and Hillsborough never happened. England are champions at having some of the most moronic 'fans' in Europe. Think perspective is needed, I'm sure they've had thousands more positive messages of support than negative one from a few morons. that doesn't a good news headline make, though. Twitter said it had proactively removed more than 1,000 posts over the past 24 hours which violated its policy and also taken swift action to permanently suspend a number of accounts Plus the Marcus Rashford mural in Manchester was defaced www.theguardian.com/football/2021/jul/12/gareth-southgate-racist-abuse-of-england-players-unforgiveable |

3 Lions who couldn't hit an open goal from 1 yard with a beach ball. How did Scotland do? |

Hah ! Roguey is back. Knew you wouldn't be able to resist a bit an anti-triumphalism with a side order of gloating. Said it earlier. Mystic Bill yeh ? England fans are disappointed but happy with the progression. Southgate is limited but he is surrounded by good people and has more than enough credit in the bank to stay in situ and hopefully take this squad on. Most interntational managers look at the players at his disposal with envy. Only France has a better squad. Just hope he can fulfil the potential but wonder if that was his best chance. Home advantage, kind draw etc . Really enjoyable tournament for all the reasons already said elsewhere. I may not boycott Qatar after all ! Nothing that I said in this thread isn't true. I would be embarrassed if I was an England fan just now. Disgraceful racists, fighting with each other. Giving disabled supporters grief when they complained about unticketed fans stealing their spaces. All done in Englands name. This is post Brexit England where mob rule runs the streets. Hey, most of us are old enough to remember what used to happen when the Scots came to town for the Home Internationals and why they had to stop. Wembley 1977 anyone? Ridiculous to think arseholes are exclusive to this part of the country. |

Pickford did well in the penalties, but English goalkeeping has really suffered from the new "play out from the back" creed and the top clubs always buying from overseas rather than bringing talent through. He's the best of a decidedly poor batch. I thought his handling in the second half of the Denmark game was extremely dodgy. All in all though, a good keeper. One day he caught a ball, but he made sure never to attempt it again. |

Let's be honest, England winged it to the semi final. An own goal, a dodgy penalty, a lucky rebound. Shining a light in the opposition goalkeepers eyes. Racially abusing the 3 young penalty takers. Utterly disgraceful. Southgate may be conservative but he's a good man. Pity the horrible bastards who call themselves fans can't live up to his standards. Not sure why people see it this way. If they didn’t score the OG Sterling was an inch behind him ready to smack it in so it was really inevitable, not like England got lucky there. The penalty, while soft, was overdue after the foul on Kane inside the box earlier in the game. Not sure which rebound that is being referred to. The other stuff is more or less par for the course, some of the videos I saw from the day were insane, people doing beak at 11am and shoving flares up their chutney and all that. How can you say for certain that Sterling would have scored that? It was never a penalty either and Kane's penalty kick was a shocker. If you want to win the big trophies you have to take these chances. |

Why Rashford would want to play for England considering the behaviour of their nazi fans is beyond me? |

Why, he's no better than The Clash sucking up to the legions of sieg-heiling stormtroopers at their gigs. From now on I'm going to call him 'Fashford'  |

Ridiculous to think arseholes are exclusive to this part of the country. My uncle was at that game but I wouldn't class the Tartan Army as hooligans in anyway. A lot of them are naive fantasists and not just about football. They have a really weird idea of what Scotland actually is. As someone who lives near Hampden, they drink in all the Irish/Celtic pubs on matchday so you can have a chat with them, they're pretty ignorant about Scotland's history and a lot of them voted 'No'in the 2014 referendum. The majority aren't from Glasgow either and I've boozing around the Southside for nearly 40 years. We also used to get a fair few English soccer hooligans going up and down Victoria Road trying to cause trouble but they never dared come near the navvy pubs and the local Asian youth kicked them all the way back to Queens Park train station until their police escorts bundled them on trains back to Central Station. This would have been the late 80's I guess. |

Only you can't see that....I'll let you get back to your Batcave albums👍 |

Tyrone Mings….
On Monday, Patel said she was “disgusted” by the abuse of “players who have given so much for our country this summer”.
Quoting her condemnation on Twitter, however, Mings wrote: “You don’t get to stoke the fire at the beginning of the tournament by labelling our anti-racism message as ‘Gesture Politics’ & then pretend to be disgusted when the very thing we’re campaigning against, happens.”
