not really - maybe if "our" england boys were still with us, i might have watched from a Saints interest, however I would rather grate my nuts than watch a team with Rooney as captain.

Think I'm done with England. Selecting Rooney is bad enough. Making him captain is madness. Lunatics have taken over the asylum.

People apparently care so little about the England team that they'll start threads about it on internet forums... :lol:

 

Now now. :p

 

Until last night I wasn't even aware the game was tonight. Yes, there was a squad announcement recently but had thought the game would be on Friday night. Hadn't seen it advertised, nothing in the media aside from the squad.

 

Wanted to know what people's feelings about the game would be after the relative excitement of the last squad when we had three players there, now they have all gone and we have only a substitute keeper to make up the numbers. In all seriousness I shall be watching the bake off instead.....Pie and tart week! Come on!

Some choice bits from Paul Parker on Rooney @ United here. Article also contains Forren's comment about Wayne putting on the beef.

 

He's been awful. There he was at Burnley this weekend, supposedly captaining the team - but I saw a player interested only in himself, doing nothing to try and lift his game or inspire his team-mates.

The only thing in any way remarkable about his performance is that he collects £300,000 a week to play that badly.

 

 

Once Robin van Persie is fully-fit again, Rooney must be the person to be dropped from United's new attacking line-up: for me, it'll be RVP and Falcao every time.

 

 

And though there's lots of talk about him playing in the hole behind that front two, I think that'd be a huge mistake - why would you have Rooney there when Juan Mata or Angel Di Maria would do the job so much better?

 

 

That'll leave Louis Van Gaal with a big call to make: dropping Wayne Rooney. He's always shown in his career that he's not afraid of the big decisions.

I just cannot see it at all. He wouldn't make him captain to then drop him weeks later. If he was remotely inclined to do so, he would have made RVP captain.

 

I won't be watching tonight, not worth using up football credits with the gf for really. Will most likely be Bake Off on in the background whilst I try design some levels. :)

I've just gone onto the ticket sales website and can get tickets in all price categories (£30,£40,£50,£60), as well as the family section (£20).

 

Unsurprising. Batman is not big on the detective work.

Was not me who called, my mate

What number did you ring, Steve as when my mate called that was the case on the website yet when trying to book, not available

 

Unless they are opening more parts of the ground

 

Edit

Managed to get £60 tickets for half price

Worth £60 not to listen to Adrian sodding Charles.

 

Watching this game but mostly out of pure boredom. I think Rooney will score and be hailed in the media as an inspiration performance by our new captain (against the mighty Norway). I would probably rather Forster is left on the bench. He is never going to be first choice whilst Hart still has 2 arms and I don't want to risk a pointless injury in this non-event of a game.

Whenever an England player touches the ball in the penalty area, Clive Tyldesley shouts his name like he's just scored the winning goal in the WC Final. Mildly irritating.

 

On another note, f**k me this is dull.

Poached pears in pastry on the great british bake off

 

The favourites had a shocker in that round. Fair play to Nancy though, she nailed it.

Adrian Charles is to commentary as what Crippin was to eternal life.

I'm still vaguely interested in England, not watching though purely because I'd rather shower with a bear than put up with Chiles, Townsend and Tyldesley. If it was on BBC I'd be watching. I might see how much of the second half I can stomach.

Try putting the TV on mute and listening to this for the second half -

Three tier pies now. Bet I am enjoying this more that you are watching Adrian chiles right now.

 

Bet Chetna's curry fusion pies would kick the arse of Wembley's stock chicken balti efforts.

Ox off, Milner on. 'This change should liven the game up' from Townsend. What??

 

Next time he was mentioned?

 

"And the momentums lost because of a wild pass from James Milner" :lol:

Do we really want Clyne and Rodriguez playing with this ****e?

 

Hopefully Roy ignores them both.

 

Hopefully Roy will be sacked when we fail to qualify for the Euros.

And here we see everything that is wrong with football.

 

Chambers puts in a string of excellent performances for Southampton and is completely ignored. He plays two f**king games for Arsenal and boom! England squad. Still it's two more than Walcott when he got taken to the sodding world cup in 2006.

Lambert will slowly be cut from the England squad and rightfully so as he's barely going to play this season.

 

Only if we can find someone better. The days when Fowler, Ian Wright, Andy Cole and MLT couldn't get near the team are long gone.
