That was one horrifying night at Wembley. But it was SO worth it to get revenge on Croatia by losing to Ukraine to stop Croatia from going to the biggest ever football tournament.
The Ukraine-England match was not on British TV, so i watched it in the cinema and EVERYONE cheered like crazy when Ukraine scored - we ALL wanted revenge on those Croatia scum bags.
At the end of the day, I would rather not qualify for ten Euro's in a row, than not qualify for just one world cup.
Bollocks! It was an utter shame that England didn't qualify for the Euro 2008 - the entire world was laughing at us for months! It was absolutely horrible and humiliating.
And at South Africa we were masterfully knocked out by the Germans - who were the much better team and deserved to advance to the quarterfinal to play the shit out of those sneaky Argies. England, as much as I love this country, doesn't have a national football team worth mentioning. Sorry, but it's true, mate.
@JustinKBE Stop following me you worthless piece of shit. You are making an utter fool of yourself, pretending to be English just to boost up the Germans dead and buried reputation.
I know that England was a laughing stock back then, we got over it pretty quickly, especially when the football league started again and especially when Spain defeated your smelly asses in the final - that was SO worth it, it was so nice watching the same thing happen in the WC - after you had knocked out Argies.
@JustinKBE ...Everyone knows that if Germany lost to Argentina, Argentina would have won the world cup. Only Germany could stop Argentina - and you done with comfortable ease, something we are grateful for - we all knew you would lose to Spain, which is why something like 85% of bets on that match was for Spain to beat Germany.
All in all, both Euro 2008 and the World Cup were successes - everyone knows England aren't winning anything for a long time - but for Spain to win them both is great.
@JustinKBE - The "world rulers" or as they like to think they are, should be winning the title - anything less than 1st is failure for "the nation that perfected football".
And even subhuman nazi jew gassing pigs are good at SOMETHING - football is just their 'thing' - England has long list of 'things' where we outrank those scum bags. They can have that one tiny sector of football - everything else in footballing terms and sporting terms, ENGLAND RULES!
look mate, I don't hate England, it's a strong football nation, but it has the wrong approach when it plays big teams in the world cup.
Attacking football is about building up a play through quick passing and dominating the opposition in their own half. England don't play like this, regardless of how many goals they score.
They hold back and play long balls. They need to be more technically sound in their attack like Brazil and Argentina.
im english but i hate our national team so i laughed at this. we soo overrate ourselves like at wc 2006, we thought we would win it? wtf we are shit. if u ask me our players are only in it 4 da money not pride and are such big heads. bring in young talent like walcott and young and we do much better
england arent shit but there not good enough to be champs either right now there on the right track again thanks to capello now they need to keep there heads in check but the media of our country makes them out to the best after a few wins even the young talents get much media hype put on them then it fucks them up e.g ever since walcot scored a hatrick against crotia and started the campaign with arsenal good its gone down hill from there he was poor in the u21 euros this year
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA stupid arrogant england fans diego maradona=legend (id shake the hand of god any day) slyvan bilic = elgend england are shocking get used to it come on kazakstan tonight
Croatia are still better team the england so called super stars are still all arrogant fucks who did piss all, the only player who was good last night was the new guy theo walcott and he did a damn good job for us, he beat croatia not the rest of them overpaid wusses. Theo >>>>>>> the rest of england squad.
well incase you forgot rooney scored and gave 2 assists for walcot but i do agree alot of the players are arrogant but that dosnt seem a problem with capello glad we got a boss who takes no shit and puts these cocky cunts in there place honestly the so called "Golden Generation" of england failed cause they allowed it to inflate there heads like its done there pockets no completley there faults the media helps they make these guys seem better than they are and turn them into arrogant twats
no that wud be more like a 4-1 win... oh w8 tht just happend, oh no lol u fuckin loser r gone, now get hte fuck out of our game and try and get some showers or summit i can smell ur shitty skill all the way from england the true home of the legends!
The blown chances early in the England Euro 2008 Qualifying fixture that sealed the Three Lions fate.
October 7, 2006: England drew 0-0 with FYR Macedonia in Old Trafford.
March 24, 2007: England drew 0-0 with Israel in Tel Aviv.
If England could've gotten the full 3 points in one or both of those matches, England would've sealed their Euro 2008 spot earlier and didn't have to use the last two matches, one in Moscow against Russia and in Wembley against Croatia, to decide their fate.
gd luck in the world cup 2010, oh w8 lol u dirty fuck-tards just got raped, well obviously we wudn't rlly rape u physically we wudn't want to catch any diseases from u nasty losers
the European football championship is probably the most difficult football competition in the world.Last time the Netherlands didn't manage to go through, today it's england's turn, next time it will be Germany, Portugal, France or Spain who knows? As a french I have to confess that I'll be missing the English in that competition.England had a golden generation and they had not won anything ,what a shame.sorry for my english.
england has a sick team, for me it will be 1 of the 4 big favorites of next world cup along with france spain and brazil, sometimes things just dont work how they suppose to.
Pathetic. England should stop rewarding Losers, Mclaren's payoff is a disgrace! he should be made to give up his house and pay money for all the money the country is set to lose this summer, let alone be rewarded with Millions of pounds, i hope some football hooligan smashes him in the face. i would laugh
McClaren made the wrong choice choosing Carson for such a big game. If he was unsure about Robbo then James would have done well. IMO the first mistake McClaren made was not picking Green for the squad. Though I may be biased ;)
Croatia played so much better than us in EVERY area. I'll be cheering you guys on next year and I reckon you'll do well. Your manager used to play for the Hammers so good luck to him too.

@ajjcj Germany ended 2nd in 2008 and 3rd in 2010. Quite a remarkable record. Add 1st in 1996, 2nd in 2002 and 3rd in 2006.
A very long success story I would say.

England is a bunch of show ponies who don't know how to play attacking football (with the exception of Joe Cole).
Gerrard is a solid player, but you can't expect him to pull them over the line, he's no Maradona.
farang82 2 years ago
9-2 is attacking, no?
How about 8 games 8 wins and 31 goals? That makes England the top scorers worldwide in qualifying for the WC.
Strompy82 2 years ago
yeah yeah, here we go... englands going to get hyped up as the favorite again because tossers like yourself go around overrating them
just watch them crash out in the quarter finals or something... it's what they're good at, lol.
farang82 2 years ago
over-rating? I was merely stating the facts. 31 goals would suggest that they play attacking football, no?
