    I think we can get past Croatia, but it will be no cake walk. I hope we can win the World cup.... on the day its all about the mind set. I think our boys are indeed capable but so are the French lads. Even if we end up in the play off on Saturday the lads have done us totally proud and I for one am grateful them all.Its a real lift for the nation as we go to the final week-End of the World cup.... first time since 1990... that's a great achievement no matter what the outcome is.... well done lads.

    Agreed. They have done way better than I ever imagined. I’ve enjoyed my humble pie and I’ll have seconds and thirds if they are able to provide them!

    With the money we have spent on grass roots football, national training centre and the facilities available to our youngsters in this country it's where we should be.

    Its paying off at last.

    Yes exactly lads, and Im about to switch off in a minute to watch the match, but we've done ace to get to this stage.

    Ohh and remember we've got Croatia as well as Spain in the upcoming Nations Cup thing this season. Fifa are trying to get rid of the pointless Intl friendlies, so they came up with this. :)

    Totally agree. Southgate and the team have reintroduced the national side to Joe Public, who for the last ten years or more, couldn’t be less interested in whether we won or lost.

    But you've already said France have won it? Can I borrow your crystal ball?
