Dave_Og Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 I've seen Latics win three promotions in my life time. Each was much better than the last by factor of many. If we get another one then it won't be. England have won one trophy in my lifetime but I don't remember it. On this specific question at this particular time - England Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I have been lucky to witness it once and would love to be able to witness it again. The first time it gave a tremendous buzz to the whole country and a great feel good factor. Come on England.

Wardie Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Winning the World Cup may be gone now but comments like this from a football has-been just wind me right up... Quote Mark Lawrenson BBC football expert in Russia This is the game nobody wants. Who remembers who finishes third in a World Cup? When we look back at this tournament, England reached the semi-finals, not finished third or fourth. This is England's second meaningless match with Belgium at this World Cup, and the only good thing about this game is it might be quite open, because there is no point getting everyone behind the ball. Miserable bastard! Football "expert" who are they trying fool?? Personally, I go for this... Quote England manager Gareth Southgate: "We have two options. We will either go home having shown improvement and equalled every team that has left our shores or we put in a performance and go home with a medal and become the best ever team to have left our shores. Come on England. Shove Lawrenson's bullshit right back down his mouth. Rant over. :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I’d rather glue my bollox to a massive firework than watch tennis , however I did go fishing instead. And I am proud of what these youngsters have done btw. I find this match pointless. I’m betting , regardless of what Southgate has said they’d all much rather have gone home. Needs fucking off imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All more exciting, also a decent midfield for Japan. As a wise man once said: "If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much room".

Latics and England Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Over the last 4 weeks I have felt totally engaged with this England team and it's manager. They fell short but I believed in what they were trying to achieve. In my view, for the first time in a long time the whole was more than the sum of the parts. It has only made me too aware of how long it is since I felt that way about Oldham Athletic. I will be there this season and I will give them my full support but I need something back from them. Togetherness and commitment would be a lovely start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frizzell54 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Sorry folks, but England are light years behind France, Croatia and Belgum. There is one positive though, looks as if we have found a keeeper. With regard to the tennis, the top pros. are far superior athletically and in mental strength to any footballer.

You may as well compare boats to planes; both means of transport but not much else in common. Wonder how a tennis player would react to a two footed challenge?
