2007 - October

[Sweder]

Football . . . . bloody hell!
Just when we were happy, safe in the knowledge we had no chance of making it to Euro 2008 Israel went and gave us the one thing that's worse than despair - hope. England still have a very real chance of blowing it on Wednesday night. If anyone one can, England can.

I'd like to say bad luck to Scotland, but it sticks in my craw.
The memory of all those Argentina shirts sold North of the Border during the last World Cup have left me feeling smug, content that the fans who love to hate England more than they love their own team were robbed at the death.
Hard cheese.

Hats off to Norn Iron Won Nil. Qualification may be a fading dream but when it comes to heart and pulling a result out against the odds those boys take some beating.
