Sixty years of hurt....

Jules Rimet still gleaming
Sixty years of hurt
Never stopped me dreaming....

A preview of the England song for the 2026 World Cup, a mere 5 years away now.

Oh well, best team of the tournament won it in the end. I can live with that.

That presupposes that the hurt started in 1966. But it didn't.

Props to England for a great tournament and a great final.

Saka should never have been put in the position of taking the 5th PK. I really feel for the guy. He was gutted.

Seemed to me that he got jealous and controlling after Shaw scored and pretty much blocked the fucking road for Shaw the remainder of the game. Rashford just isn’t national team material, sorry.

Only one Italian fan has died from the celebration.

English fans could have done so much better.

Of course I'm being sarcastic, but the rush before the match and the racist abuse after were appalling. Unfortunately the hooligans are still with us.

Did you see that guy with the flare in his anus?

There were tens of thousands of them completely pissed 10 hours before the match.
