I was thinking about getting up at 3am to watch England, but now we are through anyway I will probably just watch the 3 minute highlights.

If you really want to deprive yourself the opportunity to see our players massively over-celebrate taking an early lead, probably including some meaningfully defiant gesture referring to the criticism they've received, then getting pegged back to our own 18-yard line for the rest of the game before conceding a late equaliser, I don't think you can call yourself an England fan.

How do they decide who plays which 3rd place side?

Can't wait for this part in particular. Weak minded pansies

Probably not, but they're still a decent side. No one has really looked outstanding so far, is it only Spain on for a maximum after the group stage? 

Portugal. 

[Daggers]

Well, predictions don't come much more reliable than this.

I would like to say that explains it but I'd be lying  

 

But thanks.

Yep.

 

Can't take it, don't give it.

 

And that goes it both directions.

We will probably win 4-0 now with the pressure being off us that even if we lost we would go through, will be back to normal the next game no doubt but hopefully it allows them to kick on.

Worried we can still get a Netherlands or Belgium tbh.

It would be typical England luck to do just that.

It would be absolutely piss poor to go out to this Italy side. They're so ordinary. But you could completely see it.

1-0 Engerland

[Guest Col city fan]

Why, the fook, can’t this man just give Kane a rest?

He looks jaded and doesn’t need to play tonight.

Southgate, stop being a total twat and let Kane sit on the bench tonight.

Bollox to the media fall-out if you do. Grow a fookin pair and do it!

If he picks a predictable line-up which, let's face it, he's very likely to do, it might actually be more entertaining watching us lose, than trying to scrape a win.

 

We'll still go through regardless so I'm all for it and the fallout that this may bring

We played one of the last tournament's semi finalists, were absolutely dreadful and still didn't lose.

England weren't 'absolutely dreadful'. You would've lost 5-1 if you were.

You were solid defensively and subpar going forward. 

Hyperbole strikes again.

[RowlattsFox]

Am I right in saying a bore 0-0 draw for us and Denmark win means we finish 2 and play Germany?

 

Part me just wants it to happen so we can get the disappointment over with, and a Saturday 8pm game against Germany could be carnage.

Yep. Finish 2nd and we're up against Germany. 

 

Even if it's an exciting 0-0 draw and a Denmark win! 

[Super_horns]

Come top and will be 3rd from Group D or E.

 

Don't think the Czechs in Group F will do enough and Georgia won't beat Portugal.

Might as well withdraw the team from the tournament now. All the other teams except Scotland are better than England. The friendly vs Iceland wasn't a one-off fluke I'm afraid.

If we can avoid France and Belgium the other games are winnable rather have a couple of knock out games at least.
