Next England Captain?

[Code]

I find the abuse of Parker a bit smalltime to be honest, he is an honest professional and a great footballer, but he is not the one giving himself the armband.

[18-5]

Milan Baros scores for the Czech.

 

Shocked that he is still playing lol.

[xerxes]

so you think someone would be happier to receive a call up for Botswana than sign for Barcelona?!mind, you were saying we ought to be celebrating being in the Europa Shit the other day

Firstly, you said that, not me. If I was born in Botswana, representing my country would be the highest representative honour I could achieve.

 

Playing for Barcelona would be the second highest club achievement (behind playing for us:P).

 

Winning Euro status again, having had no European football this season, is indeed a step forwards.

 

We are in no position to be derogatory about a competition which we had previously not even qualified for.

George Carlin - Patriotism

I saw a slogan on a guys car that said "Proud to be an American" and I thought "What the fuck does that mean?"

 

I'm fully Irish, and when I was a kid I would go to the St Patrick's Day parade and they sold a button that said "Proud to be Irish", but I knew that on Columbus day they sold the same button only it said "Proud to be Italian", then came Black Pride, and Puerto Rican Pride. And I could never understand national or ethnic pride, because to me Pride should be reserved for something you achieve on your own.

 

Being Irish isn't a skill, it's a fucking genetic accident.

 

You wouldn't be proud to be 5'11". You wouldn't be proud to have a pre-disposition for colon cancer.

 

 

 

 

 

Sums it up perfectly for me.

[Fugitive]

Being proud to represent your country of birth transcends political allegiances.

 

From Pepe and Dirk, back to St John and Tommy Smith through Jan, Masch, Ray and countless others inbetweeen, representing your country has always been somethig to aspire to and cherish.

 

Kenny a Tory? I don't think so.......................

 

Kenny is Scottish and I'd be proud to be a Scot. The English a fucking disgusting and it's easy to see why everyone hates them.

 

You are defo a Tory.

Why, he just turned 30 a couple of months ago, great player, would love to have him back.

[TheDrowningMan]

Very Harsh. Hoping to see him break his leg so you can take pleasure from it is a bit sick IMO. Especially when he's done nothing more than being chosen for England captain by Pearce and being highly rated by the English media.

 

It's not something I'm actively wishing for. It would just be funny, given his style of play. Big bwave prahhhd Scott, the most slyly dirty player since Paul Scholes. It's not as though I'm praying he suffers serious health problems.

No he is not. He is good and will never be great. For greatness in CM look to the likes of Souness. Other than that I agree.

Performance in Istanbul is vastly underrated. He gave Nesta and Stam absolute hell that night.

[usernameunknown]

Parker great footballer

 

Your lack of knowledge on the game is frightening.

[18-5]

Adam off for Scotland as well.

 

Hendo and Kelly played full 90 mins for U19's too. Will have to see how many players turn up not injured.

True, I wouldn't wish injury on virtually any player. Parker is an annoying cunt though.

Would you prefer your country to win the World Cup or Liverpool to win the title?

[Redder Lurtz]

Stateless, and aimless.

 

Aimless? No, it was aimed at you.

 

Stateless? Ermm. I think you might have just made that one up.

[Section_31]

How did Phil McNulty ever become chief football writer for the BBC? Fucking hell.

[TheDrowningMan]

Parker's acting is disgraceful as well - he goes around kicking everyone in sight but as soon as he gets caught he rolls around for minutes and turns on the tears. He's a cynical, genuinely nasty little twit.

Everything he does is fucking annoying, every movement is like he's on stage.

 

Cunt of a player.

Surely an 'honest professional'.....

[Guest TK-421]

[Guest ShoePiss]

Get the fuck in

[Anubis]

Pick that out you twats.

[ScouseJim]

Great goal by Robben!!

[chrisbonnie]

Fucking hell. What a goal

[Pidge]

Where was the dashing captain then?

 

Or there, wandering around away from the ball...

 

Great cross from Kuyt there.
