[Football] Greenwood and foden

[Jim in the West]

I do agree, they've broken rules and they deserve to be punished. The strongest punishment is removing them from the squad and sending them home but I'm sure they'll realise England away games aren't a jolly going forward. I wouldn't be too critical of them, they're going to be important players for England for the next 10 years. It's a bad start and they've let themselves down but it's not terminal. They'll realise the error of their ways and grow up a bit.

Did you hear any of the interviews Foden did last week? How desperate he was to play for his country? How proud he was going to be? Blah Blah... If he was THAT desperate, or that proud, you might think he would have the good sense to keep to the rules. Sometimes I despair of these idiotic prima-donas that we (indirectly) pay fortunes to. I'm afraid (unless there was some bizarre mitigating circumstance) I am going to take some time before I can forgive them. It's a pity England don't have the same "no dick-heads rule" that the Albion seem to have.

The Southgate hate (due to him inexplicably not picking Dunk I agree) is in danger of boiling over into another NSC stick to beat our country with. Can see it now ‘I’m glad THEY lost etc etc’. Southgate is mental for not picking Dunk, but he’s doing good things with the England team and has been successful with young players so obviously will get my full support for my country as always. Should go without saying, but appreciate many won’t be able to comprehend the thought of supporting our country at our sport, and make up some sort of club v country thing as per...

NSC has always been anti England.

It’s pathetic. At least there’s a few that speak up for their country - Albion & England forever

 

[The Fits]

Southgate:

Both now travel back to England.
Nothing has happened in the areas team occupy in hotel.
What is clear is there has been a breach of covid guidelines.

No other players in contact with the two, who weren't even at breakfast.

Sounds pretty upset about this actually.

I particularly like the fact that the BBC is reporting that they will be asked to leave the camp, which is presumably what they did to get into trouble in the first place?!

I am Albion & England, but come on we are not setting the world alight and then stuff like this comes out, it hardly fills you with confidence does it.
What should we do, shrug our shoulders and say "ah multi millionaire kids will be kids"

It is disappointing to say the least, then you have Rashford who shows, just how amazing some of them can be, they need to sit down and speak to him for life lessons not Mr Meek Manager.

You can be proud to play for your country and desperate to do well and then make an error of judgement after the fact. I'm not going to criticise a young man for getting carried away after making his England debut in an away win and celebrating with a young lady who may or may not have known who he was.

If he does indeed have a girlfriend and 1 year old baby at home then it's a catastrophic error of judgement and character, but I'm not going to get all righteous on an internet forum and preach about morality.

Sorry mate wasn’t defending the 2 players in any way shape or form if they’ve broken rules. I was merely pointing out the tone moved straight to having a pop at Southgate and the England squad etc, in an anti-England negative NSC style thread very, very quickly! We’ve just had the Dunk thread where I thought people could get that all out their system..

As I say, certainly not immune from criticising us, same as the Albion. Just think the overall tone from many has always been pathetically negative and the England threads on here when there’s a mad scramble to be the first to say ‘I’m not watching’ or ‘I didn’t even know we / England were playing’ is very, very twattish!

That is a nonsense, to be honest.

There are plenty of England fans here. There are also some who are not much BOTHERED about Internationals, too - but not being fussed about it, doesn't equate to being 'anti' England.

 

[Springal]

Wonder how Fodens missus (who he has a young child with) feels about this.

Be interesting to see if he gets the Sterling treatment from the press...

Thought this was amusing

Presumably they were eating out.

 

[Originunknown]

Silly boys. Shows how little respect they have for Southgate which isn't surprising.

Not me - more annoyed with the two twats that have let us down

 

[nickbrighton]

This isnt as simple as just a couple young lads having a beer when they shouldn't, so a slap on the wrist and don't do it again will not cut it. Regardless of their individual family situations at home, which are a personal matter for them, the thing here is that they potentially put the entire squad, the squads families , club etc and everyone else at risk

They are only away for a few days, if they got horny they should have just stuck to a wa*k like the rest of the squad!

They broke the bubble so now should have to isolate which should put them out of their clubs first matches, so that will further impress their managers and fan bases!

Nowt to do with Southgate really. All these low IQ wallies just can't help acting like c*nts. Role models? Only in the eyes of their very well paid PR team

 

[Binney on acid]

One thing I could never understand was how Southgate got the job in the first place. His track record with Middlesbrough wasn't exactly impressive.

This - I fall into the not bothered category.

Always want them to win, but stopped watching some time ago.
