Not felt this nervous about watching England since the Euro 96 semi final
Great how you just had to inform us you’re not arsed about England. You could have just said “hope Raheem nails it tonight !” but like all the non-England fans they just have to be seen not supporting England like they think it’s fashionable to be seen not supporting England.Not arsed about England but hope Raheem nails it tonight !

I seem to have read a lot the past couple of weeks about how we could have won France 98 and how talented the squad was. It feels to me like history is being rewritten a bit.
We weren't even seeded for that tournament (Romania being the seeded team in our group, and they beat us). Not sure how many of that squad were top class apart from Shearer. Standout performers from memory were Campbell and Owen and it was a 'breakthrough' tournament for both of them (23 and 18 years old respectively at the time). Lots of decent players but the team was nowhere near the level of the two finalists.
We played alright for most of the four games, but we weren't exactly ripping up trees. Had we beaten Argentina, we would have had to go through Holland, Brazil and France to win it. No chance.
