He forgot Volvo, Ace of Base, the now defunct SAAB, Henrik Larson, Alicia Vikander, IKEA etc etc.

Ikea is the furniture shop that also sells meatballs. :-)

Also takes half a day to get out - the Bristol IKEA is bloody huge. All that time spent and ex-wife buys some tea lights. Grr!!

As the "yoof" would say; my bad.

The poor choice of England managers doesn't really help me out there, however I'll name 2, Terry Venables and Bobby Robson.

How was robson or venables better. What measure are you using there? Is it just how much you liked them personally ?

Gonna be a tough game whoever we play but gotta be in it to win it and England's still in it. C'mon the Lionesses!

I have to feel that the Lionesses can do it. The nervous stages were the quarters and semis. Going out there means your tournament was basically worth nothing.
Yes, it won't be easy. Both the Germans and the French are serious opponents. but the English girls are on a roll.

Hope you’re right… I think they can but it will be the toughest test yet.. can’t wait now. Have really enjoyed the tournament.

My favourite Village Idiot Dan Roan has just been on the 10:00 news. Seems he watched a different game - it was the Earps, Russo Toone show…

To be fair I thought Earps had a great game. Was disappointed for Roebuck at the start of the tournament but I think Earps has justified her selection in this tournament.

She's played well and made some vital stops. She's also made slight misjudgements on a couple of crosses and been caught out but - crucially - got away with them. Maybe its better to have a lucky keeper than a great one!

I feel nervous that she'll get caught off her line or mess something up whenever i watch her, but itd be wrong to change keepers now. Fingers crossed she can manage one more top game.
