because they missed out I hope it makes people appreciate England. I know we had an easier group but the England team get way too much stick. Qualifying is a thankless task for England. Most of our games have a 'par' of winning by 3 or 4 and if they do so, they get no credit and if they don't they get slated.
It's too fashionable to slate England and claim to 'hate' the players or not care but I bet 90%+ of English football fans will be very pleased we're there when it all kicks off.
Disclaimer: I have no idea how England are playing tonight, i'm watching ROI. Hoping for a miraculous comeback. |  |

We have no chance of winning it, but it's great to be there and hopefully get to the knockout stages. | |

With Chile, Ivory Coast, Italy, Netherlands and USA all out before being in, it gives us an awfully good chance of finishing third in the group stages |  |

It's just frustrating supporting England. The Germany game was entertaining and could have gone either way.
Tonight the Brazilians are bossing the game, we don't seem to know what to do with the ball or have the confidence to try things.
What was that stat someone posted earlier? England have won just 6 games in tournaments since 1966. You can see it now, 2 draws and a 1 or 2-0 win against the weakest side in the group next summer, then lose in extra time in the last 16, huffing and puffing all the way. |  |

The players are all pretty boring. The manager is likeable but unimaginative. The tabloid and even adult media coverage is a complete joke.
But yes, come kick off I'll be excited. For about a minute until I witness how inept we are. |  |

To be honest the next two world cups are so uninspiring in my opinion. No atmosphere in Russia and as for the one after that!!!! I always thought the Euros was harder to win, and more entertaining, but they've ruined that now too. [Post edited 14 Nov 2017 22:01]

I think Russia will be alright. May even pop over as an excuse to visit, but not necessarily to watch England. | |

"England have won just 6 games in tournaments since 1966"
What? That's not even vaguely close to being correct |  | | |

It's basically just been 10 men behind the ball
We are desperately lacking Alli, Kane and Sterling
Our central midfield looks incredibly threadbare |  |

I think the star is 6 knockout tournament wins rather than total | |

Don't forget you hate international football and particularly the England team so you're not bothered anyway | | | |

I still want us to win when it gets to major tournaments.
But we won't. We never will. | |

So when Ipswich finaly get to the play offs and everyone wants a ticket you won't complain when everyone comes out of the woodwork. | | | |

That's hardly the same is it.
If Ipswich got to the playoff final, after I get my ticket, I wouldn't care who comes. In fact, id hope and expect the Town end is packed out | |
