    I totally agree Kandy. The only problem with paying them so little would be they'd probably go on the dole instead and we'd be forking out to keep them as they probably have no training in anything else! :doh:

      Never mind Woo, put the disappointment of yesterday (and todays Italy v Costa Rica result) behind you, there are two more England teams in action this weekend, the Rugby Union boy's in New Zealand and just up the road from me, the England Cricket Team.
      All together, come on England :yes:

          A question from my other half. Can somebody tell him what the cockerel stands for on the French team's shirts please?

                      I hope Hodgson fields the "B" team, seeing as the match is pointless, and this team wipes the floor with Costa Rica. That would be one in the eye for the first team. Can't see England winning though. It will be another embarrassing performance!

                        Top of the morning all my friends,yes its gone a little quiet,we might be down but we are not out:paladin: I am so glad that I belong to the silent minority of staunch anything English supporters,its so easy to kick a person when they are down and yes Scrungee :ThankYou: my friend for sparking this reply ,:heehee: What ever happens tonight in the game there are some of us will still believe and I am very glad to say that the England flags are still fluttering in the light breeze in the Medway Towns and we still have that pride and determination in our character and what is heart warming is that the boys aged 6 to 16 feel the same as I do,and I have had a chat with them at the youth club;)

                        I was just eating my porridge when I happened to look deeply in to it,and I saw England winning the UEFA EURO 2016 in France:old:;)

                        Group E
                        England, Switzerland, Slovenia, Estonia, Lithuania, San Marino
                        Roy's boys were drawn into group E alongside the Swiss, Slovenia, Estonia, Lithuania and San Marino in the race for a place in the finals

                        Reunion: Hodgson will face off against his old team to begin the campaign
                        England will begin their bid to qualify for Euro 2016 with a trip to Switzerland.

                        Boss Roy Hodgson will get the chance of a reunion with the team he took to the World Cup back in 1994 on September 8th .

                        Next up will be an October double header with San Marino at Wembley on the 9th before a trip to Estonia three days later.

                        The calendar year will end with a home clash with Slovenia on November 15 before hosting Lithuania on March 27, 2015.

                        The potentially all important closing stretch will see September fixtures in San Marino and at home with Switzerland before finishing off in October 2015 with Estonia at home and Lithuania away.
