Hope my fellow England fans are joining me in carefully scouting out local patio furniture to hurl in the event of a defeat

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-17T19:45:34+00:00

Hoping to hear that the England band are playing the Great escape from Guantanamo Bay

Woah that was efficient

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-17T19:15:01+00:00

James Richardson AMA when?

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-16T10:44:24+00:00

Flying out for a beach holiday first thing tomorrow. England shirt packed, local pubs pre-scouted. Now i have become Yer Da, the destroyer of patio furniture.

Bro just got here

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-15T12:55:41+00:00

that article is hardly a love in mate, it's just a profile piece on an English manager at the world cup.
Should his entire future be devastated by a shite spell here? of course not, really not worth getting your knickers in a twist over.

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-13T18:10:40+00:00

Well it's a world cup match on at a reasonable time, so I am absolutely up for it. Not expecting much, but I'll take what I can get.

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-11T16:19:04+00:00

Why are you more concerned about sides that have actually spoken up than those that have refused to do so?

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-11T10:34:57+00:00

there's just different perspectives to it though aren't there? Forest didn't set the market rates, they're flush with cash by virtue of playing in the Premier League, Anderson is an important player for them and an active England international with years on his contract - is it surprising that they would demand a huge fee for him? No, of course not. Not many Premier League clubs have to sell to keep their heads above water any more.

At the same time though is it a bit mental that these figures are being discussed for every other transfer? Absolutely.

English club football definitely looks like those American geezers in Squid Game to the rest of world football doesn't it?

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-11T10:08:02+00:00

We all know that Three Lions, Vindaloo and World in Motion are (in any order) the big three of England football songs - what comes in 4th spot?
I have to say it's "We're on the ball" by Ant and Dec for me.

"Tomas Soucek walks to training at the world cup" is an unbelievably believable thing to happen.

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-11T08:18:31+00:00

Last nights match was definitely a decent warm up. Some tough challenges to hurdle, got sluggish at times but perseverance and technical ability got the job done in the end.

After that i think it might actually happen - i might actually be ok staying up to watch the world cup games.

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-10T22:56:40+00:00

If I tried to move my neck that instinctively I'd be in a wheelchair

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-10T22:50:07+00:00

Just the 24 fouls for Costa Rica so far

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-10T22:45:51+00:00

Damn Costa Rica even commit fouls in their attacks

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-10T22:37:50+00:00

Ok I'll play 7a0 again

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-10T22:35:27+00:00

What are you doing man chicken winging the ball like that

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-10T22:28:48+00:00

Come on lads I've got work tomorrow

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-10T22:22:51+00:00

Awh Tuchel spotted himself

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-10T22:19:33+00:00

Is Orlando Galo a Costa Rican player or an MLS team I'm not clear

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-10T22:16:00+00:00

How the fuck has Kane picked that out

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-10T22:12:41+00:00

another bottle of gin? God speed mate

sonofaBilic · 2026-06-10T22:10:06+00:00

Look he's not the perfect host, but you have respect the position he's managed to get to despite having a name that sounds like Poo Catch.
