Fingers Crossed Time

Sorry about the lack of blog action lately, but been tied up with other shit. Last night watched the England Austria snore fest down the George (it is always advisable to have plenty of booze to hand when they are playing). Again, if that is the best we can muster, against a piss poor team to boot, it almost makes me wonder if qualification is worth the effort. Beckham is past it, and playing him in a friendly to get him up to match speed is laughable. Lampard and Gerrard in the middle? How many shit games do they have to play in tandem to make someone realise it doesn't work? As we speak Israel are winning one nil, but after last nights showing can we be assured of beating, or even drawing with Croatia? Well if they pull it off, great we can all start practising our yodelling, conversely, if we fail, we get the satisfaction of Mr Charisma getting the boot, and finding his true coaching level somewhere in the Championship league one.
