*Official* English Football Season 2006-07

[Matteh]

How is that related to the English Football Season? Next Scaly can say x,y,z things about you and believe he is spot on. Doesn't add any thing to the forum apart from negative vibe.

Because he seems incredibly biased against Henry with very little to back it up.

Exactly. He doesn't rate Henry purely because he is French. This is Xenophobia, therefore Scaly is a xenophobe.

Steds, Matteh: PY made a point in the Hinton thread here. If x has made a baseless point accord to y without any evidence, there are much better ways to express that - like saying just that - 'you aren't giving any evidence to substantiate your point' than going over the top.

When said person ignores those statements repeatedly then what's the point, especially when he still rambles on? Then you have to think, why is x making such a baseless point repeatedly over and over, and i've given the reason.

I will go back to PY's post. Cheers.

It's not just Henry though.

He labels one team as cheats, divers and mercenaries, and ignores lots of other sides who all do just the same.

He also abuses former England managers because they're not English.

Erm, managers? Unless I've just awoken from a coma, there's only been one.

And Eriksson's 3 QFs with supposedly the best team for a long, long time is simply not good enough.

 

[marc71178]

And yet again, how is it his fault that he's experienced injuries, dodgy refereeing, sending offs and crap penalty takers?

When was Sven managing Brazil?

TBF Pens are a lottery so we coulda easily gone further this year.

What grates with me is that we looked so turd throughout.

Erm, he wasn't. To be fair, I can forgive him 2002... but 2004 and 2006 I do blame him for. Especially 2004.

 

[Matteh]

2004 is probably the one most out of his control. Meier had such a vendetta against England in that match.

You act like no other team experiences injuries...

Dodgy refereeing - agreed that Campbell had a perfectly good goal disallowed in 2004, but the fact that it went as far as it did was entirely Sven's fault IMO - we were one-up and cruising, and suddenly started defending... Portugal were bound to get back eventually. You also act like no other team had any sending-offs in this World Cup... yet they seemed to deal with it.

We were somewhat lucky to get through quite a few of the earlier games while playing awfully, and we just generally looked ****.

Granted McLaren hasn't looked much better yet... but he's only just started, he needs to be given time before we make a judgement.

So now you're in fact condoning xenophobia because Scaly has a different viewpoint to the norm?

 

[grecian]

Well you said he was "supposedly managing the best team in ages", thats not England.

If people want to criticize overpaid, over-rated, diving, cheating primadonnas, start with fat Frank and the lads.

The best team we've had for ages...

Best English team in ages..

I realized, it was a joke, both my original post, and the description....

No.

Macedonia game. Went 1-0 up and then sat back and defended, there is no need for England to do that against the likes of Macedonia.

 

[Matteh]

No.

When someone is actually just plain wrong and basing their opinion on complete irrationality, PY's post doesn't come into play.
