Koke Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 I have regarded Capello as an idiot ever since he said Rooney could captain England one day. Why can't he?
Ric Flair Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 Are people actually watching this game?? Shit, has it kicked off already?

Manwell Pablo Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 USA USA USAI would love the US to win just for the headlines on both sides of the Atlantic. I don't think anything will ever beat "Yanks 2 Planks 0"
Darkzzz_ Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 Shit, has it kicked off already? 6am kick off... It replaced BBC Breakfast, damn!!! I love Sian Williams in the morning!!!
Simi Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 USA USA USA. Hope their fans show us how it's done. Reality check.
Webbo Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 I couln't handle the shite I would take from all my friends! Although, I'm getting a load of people together to watch it with the anticipation of a major piss-taking session afterwards. If we lose just tell them we won anyway, they're yanks they won't know the difference.
Number 6 Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 Why can't he? Why couldn't he? Because he would be an awful captain, yes he has motivation but I can't see him organising and controlling a team, he can't even control himself most of the time.

Matt Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 Oh dear, what a shame i'm going to the airport to pick someone up tomorrow so won't be able to watch this game.
Leicester Lass Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 I'm going cinema instead. Watching Sex and the City?
purpleronnie Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 Its geting loads of press over here, lots of interviews with fans travelling over. They all have been given free scarves with their tickets so expect a small scale YNWA type display. The'll outsing the english crowd I think, probably because to them its a big game but no-one in england cares. No doubt I'll get the piss taken out of me thursday. Why dont the english fans sing? Why are the english so reserved? Etc etc....
Noel Edmonds Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 Disgusting that Terry should get the arm band. It's obvious that he isn't man enough after watching him crying for hours after the champions league final. He clearly spat at Tevez and got off with it. Rio is coming off the back of a season in which he has captained a side winning the Prem and the Champions league, its fooking nonsense to hand it to Terry.

But a man crying after missing the kick that would have won the Champions League for what is pretty much, 'his team' isn't anything to be ashamed of

Matt Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 It is. John Terry is a grown man. It was a football match. Its pathetic. I don't like John Terry but again with our "one sighted fans" i'm sure should we be in the position where we need to score a penalty to win something or for something very important and the player missed and then the player just got on with and got on with life, i'm sure some of our fans would be coming down on them like a ton of bricks, "He's shown no passion or commitment", "He doesn't care", "He's not bothered", and so on.
lildave3 Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 It is. John Terry is a grown man. It was a football match. Its pathetic. I disagree. That penalty could have made people all over the world ecstatic, possibly even kept his managers job and would have ended a season in which he has been dogged by injuries and bad luck brilliantly. I see no problem with that.
Simi Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 It is. John Terry is a grown man. It was a football match. Its pathetic. I disagree. Shocking.

I think its quite clear that John Terry cares about Chelsea without blubbering though. You're right, some of our fans would criticise if the scenario you mention ever occurs, but I certainly wouldn't be one of them.

I see no problem with that. When I was younger, and football played a far bigger part in my life, I would have agreed with you. But as I've got older, it just doesn't matter as much. I'm still passionate about the game, but thats all it is, a game.
Joe. Posted 27 May 2008 Posted 27 May 2008 Give the captaincy to somebody who can lead by example. That means not John Terry. The man's an absolute willy puller on the pitch, mouthing off at every opportunity, surrounding referees at every opportunity and pulling stunts like spitting at Tevez. It's not qualities like these that we should be looking for in an England captain.
