OddJob Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Missed the beginning of the programme, so anyone tell me how long it took them to mention THAT year then? By the way, the game so far has been typical English gash. England just scored, Lampard, good goal like. Link to comment
glasgow sheep Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 well I switched on at kickoff and it was THE very first thing I heard them say Link to comment
glasgow sheep Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 not watching but this is funny: http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/footbal...als/6948799.stm 2028: Corner to Germany. Christophe Metzelder climbs above Rio Ferdinand but angles his header wide of the back post. "Germany have got absolutely nothing going forward. It's going to be a long night for them."Chris Waddle, BBC Radio 5live pundit 2033: GOAL England 1-1 GermanyIs Jens Lehmann in the England goal? No, but Paul Robinson does a good impression of him. The Spurs man flaps at a Bernd Schneider cross on his line and Kevin Kuranyi taps in. Link to comment

Fife-Don Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 What happened in 66? Some sh*tey team, got lucky with a biest linesman and won the world cup. Later on that year the true world champions beat them Link to comment

OddJob Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 A completely under-strength Germany team and they quite simply strolled the game in the end, if they bothered to even move into 2nd gear they could have won by more. Brilliant stuff Link to comment
The Hobbit Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 I was flicking between Scotland and England games. I know they had one or two injuries If you consider the team they finished with included the following; Gareth BarryWes BrownPeter CrouchKieron DyerNicky Shorey Decent players but world class? You really have to question their strength in depth. Half of their bench aren't even regulars for their clubs. I was watching an interview with Guy Roux, he knows a thing or two, who questioned the impact of the EPL on the national side. Are they going to end up where Scotland were 8 years ago with an ageing side and no real talent coming through? Link to comment
At The Border Guy Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 I was watching an interview with Guy Roux, he knows a thing or two, who questioned the impact of the EPL on the national side. Are they going to end up where Scotland were 8 years ago with an ageing side and no real talent coming through? Was reading the other week (in the Scotsman, i think?) that there was over 300 non-English 'first team' players in the EPL just now. Given that only 220 can have a starting place on match day, that's some amount!! Link to comment
Guest redbrigade Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Can you guys not give 1966 a rest? You sound obsessed by it. Link to comment

Are they going to end up where Scotland were 8 years ago with an ageing side and no real talent coming through? It's a fair point actually, 6 or 7 years time once Ferdinand, Terry, Beckham, Gerrard, Lampard, Neville and Owen have all departed from international football, England could really be struggling. There doesn't appear to be that many good, young English players going about these days. I mean Theo Walcott....Don't make me laugh! Link to comment
Jaws Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Missed the beginning of the programme, so anyone tell me how long it took them to mention THAT year then? By the way, the game so far has been typical English gash. England just scored, Lampard, good goal like. Seriously i watched the programme from 7.30 and straight away they showed all the goals from the games between England and Germany at Wembley. First game shown - 1966. Must have been less than a minute it took them. Link to comment
afc_23 Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 42 mins 50 secs '66 mentioned. What would you do if it wasnt mentioned, seems like you get a lot of amusement out of waiting for it to happen, i'd imagine you'd be pretty gutted. Link to comment
