That must have added about £10m on Feo's valuation.

I went to Sweden years ago with the yoof club I played under 18eens with. Fcukin best holiday I ever had.
One of the yoof leaders stabbed me in the leg - fcuker was goin for me bollocks. (Wheres the fcukin exclamation mark on this fcukin keyboard?)

3 -weeks
first week somewhere I cant remember but WOW the Swedish birds are top class
2nd week - backpacking up the mountains. Yemptland or something it sounded like. Man we were fcukin starving when that week ended. Was all this NASA type powdered shit that you add water to.
No Swedish birds there except one of the leaders Marita her name was. When I got stabbed in the leg she brought me to hospital and stayed while they stitched me up. She saw me cock. Think I could have rid her but I was only 17 and she was thirtysomething so I was a bit naive. Fcuk sake.
3rd week - Stockhome WOW the Swedish birds are great. Horny fcukers

Wish I waS 17 again. Halcyion days.

Would love to think that walnuts impact will add a few million to the fee we will get in the summer but it is more likely that wenger will decide that he is worth 100k per week now :roll: :banghead: :banghead:

If I was an engerland fan I would be seriously questioning the performances of young, gerrard and welback tonight - the swedish are a poor team but gerrard was anonymous, welback was no threat (the goal apart) and ashley young was utter shit for the 2nd game in a row :roll: On the plus side woy showed again his tactical acument and flexibility which will be very much needed if england are to progress cos technically they can be suspect and that could be exploited in the knockout stages

Hodgson is just what England needed. Not afraid to make brave decisions like subbing Parker and dropping the Ox after a good game against France because it's what was best for the team, as opposed to picking the strongest 11 players regardless of fit. Almost strange to see England play with a game plan (even if it's a negative one) for once rather than playing kick-and-rush. Sweden are a poor team but winning despite conceding 2 terrible goals is an achievement.

Still, Gerrard and Young were rubbish (again) and Welbeck was quiet for the majority and despite today's fancy finish still lacks killer instinct in front of goal.

lampard too. both shite.

England will never waiver from their tradition of picking the 'biggest' players for a tournament rather than the in form ones - remember toto schillacci in Italia '90 ? - he was a nobody internationally, but he was on fire and took that into the tournament and won the golden boot.

that's why the likes of Gary Neville get 95 caps despite shocking performances. and don't even talk to me about Heskey, crouch, ferdinand etc...

that's why i stopped going away in 2004 - a great crack with the lads, but too bloody disappointing to see the championship quality noddies that are picked get found out repeatedly every two years.

****s.

I'm delighted to see so many posters slagging off Gerard's performance. I was watching the game, thinking the same, but listening to the 'pundits' creaming themselves about him. He looked like he was wearing diving boots.

Glad it's not just me but I thought Gerrard was shocking last night and against France..I couldn't believe it when I heard the commentator praise him near the end...If England meet Spain they pairing of Gerrard and Parker will be found out big time. I am/was a Parker fan but the two together don't seem up to the pace of the game, not that there was much pace to the France game anyway.

Well done to Engerland I have to say and am delighted for Feo and Ox.

Agree with other posters that Gerrard looks well past his best and the greedy fcuker should have let the Ox, who I thought was in a better position, to bury it. Would have done the lad the world of good.

On a side not if Germany reach the final and Pod plays every game he will equal Beckenbauer's all time appearance record of 103 caps for Germany. Not half bad for a 27 year old.
