EURO POST MATCH COMMENTS!

 
 WOW! What a week it has been what with the shock result of the referendum and now the defeat of England by Iceland!       

Both exits were not anticipated I must admit. A dramatic score line; England 1 Iceland 2 had the backstabbers out in force. A few days earlier everyone was a politician and last night everyone was a football manager or expert of some kind.

The pundits on TV used words like humiliating, shambles, terrible, chaotic etc and castigated everyone from the coaching staff to the manager and finally the players.

It was, truth be told, an awful display by the England players and we deserved to lose. A truly disappointing night for all football lovers however this was in part rescued by the comments which were made on Facebook just after the final whistle. 

There is always someone who can uplift you by their humorous insights and pithy comments. I’m sure that all those involved in team England might not appreciate them but hey they made me smile. Here are just a few;
 

• Only England could manage to exit Europe twice in one week!

 

• Gob smacked! Gob smacked that anyone could be gob smacked!

 

• Iceland is supposed to be cheap but Joe Hart saved nothing!

 

• It doesn’t take 2 years to come out of Europe;  just 90mins!!!

 

• Do you think when Hodgson heard that most people wanted to leave Europe he got the wrong end of the stick?

 

• If Iceland wins, do they play Lidl next?

 

• And my favourite of the evening was ;

 

• Flood warnings have been issued in England as the whole of Wales pisses themselves laughing.

 
Thought for the day: If you are not sure what to do with the ball just pop it in the net and we’ll think about the options afterwards. (Bill Shankley)
