    And the next England manager is?

    I heard "That bloke down the pub" is in the frame.

    And the next England manager is?

    IIRC a similar thing happened in Italia '90 with Bobby Robson who changed the formation mid tournament after some of the players had it out with him. I don't think it is necessarily a bad thing if the players then take the responsibility they have demanded.

    And the next England manager is?

    IDK about the tactical skills of Shearer but he certainly looked passionate about the England job on the TV last night. Of course that's not enough on it's own but 2 years and a tournament is long enough to find out if you have picked the right person. I wouldn't mind him being manager...

    And the next England manager is?

    Of course it's down to the manager, no question. If players don't understand and believe in the the philosophy of the manager then they are doomed to fail. Mourinho is a good example of how this works, when his players go on the pitch they are fully focused and ready to kill. Great managers make...

    England v Iceland 8pm

    They are the constant in this ongoing débâcle. I have thought this ever since the nonsense around Sven. I know Dick Van Dyke is there at the moment and at least he knows what shape a ball is but I reckon that a good as it gets. There are deep rooted problems with football in this country and it...

    [Politics] Brexit

    Fair question. No source data yet but I will look once I have finished my bowl of Alpen. I read yesterday 25% percent then heard on the radio 30% so I took the higher number. I will correct my post if it turns out to be false or made up.

    You do realise that a mere 30% of the 18-25 group actually bothered to vote. I don't blame them for the result but perhaps it would be helpful to find out why 70% opted out of the process. All this angst from some younger people should be directed towards their peers instead of blaming people at...

    Many businesses within and outside of the EU make lots of money out of the UK economy. You can be sure that these businesses will want to maintain that. If companies within the EU start losing money because Brussels throw their toys out of their pram then lobbyists will be paying them a visit...

    Brexit SPREADS across Europe:

    Hold on. She wants to be part of the UK and the EU at the same time?

    The EU wants Britain to leave "as soon as possible"

    Well, they normally get to have a "do over" when things don't pan out as they would like.

    ENGLAND team versus ICELAND

    I think the Lama brings a bit of flair to the team which is somewhat lacking elsewhere. It's just a shame he can't seem to finish.

    ENGLAND team versus ICELAND

    So when the tournament started we were in the EU and the Euro's but not in the Euro. Presently we are not in the Euro but in the Euro's whilst being out of the EU? Anyway Sterling is down today so I won't pick him.

    [Politics] Brexit

    The lack of political engagement is due in part to the poor representation by politicians. We have just had a referendum where 72% of the electorate have voted, which is much more than any general election. This referendum is the closest thing to democracy I have ever seen in this country, a...
