Ok so runners up is a success if you're Ipswich but not if you're England is basically what you seem to be saying. You're being ridiculous. Runner Up means Runner up regardless. |
Runners up in a league format where the top 2 get promoted is quite obviously different to being the losing finalist in a cup competition. |  | | |

What goalposts have I shifted? I said, "Ipswich have won stuff in that time, England haven't." Winning promotion is winning. The clue is in the word "winning".
I don't know if you're some kind of sadist but you appear to be trying to catch me out and ending up embarrassing yourself on a daily basis at the moment. Walk away from the computer, fella, I'm starting to feel sorry for you. |
I reckon you’ve been punched a number of times in your life if you speak to people in real life, as you do on here.
My guess is you absolutely don’t though.

I speak respectfully to people who deserve my respect. Trolls who follow me around trying to win the internet will deservedly get short shrift. |  |

The answer to these questions is always Ipswich.
If the price of club success would be for England to drop to 200th in world rankings, I'm still taking it. |  |

Might have been a harder question in my late teens and twenties, as most of my friends were non-Town fans and an England victory would have led to an almighty party. Now it's not even close - Town all the way, and I'd take Town winning any cup or getting promoted from any division over an England tournament win. Barely even know when England are playing anymore. |  | | |

People are free to see what's happened (again). I've made a fairly innocuous comment on a hypothetical scenario thread (very similar to many other comments on the thread) and you've steamed in to attack me, and have kept poking since, embarrassing yourself as you keep digging.
And you still haven't answered if you enjoyed the back-to-back promotions. I must've asked about 4 times now. | |

You mean like you jumped on me yesterday on Ryorry's thread, trying to ridicule me while your pathetic little pal Positdivity joins in with downvoting. The pair of you need to grow up. It's sad you're a man in his fifties (and I assume he is no spring chicken either) and you get your kicks trying to wind people up by constantly downvoting their posts | |

calm down man, i downvote your stupid, trolly or nasty comments, not the good ones.
there's an easy way to get around it if it winds you up so much; post better stuff.
the vast majority of people on this board get way, way more uppies than downies from me, i'm a good crowd (unless you're an elephant, a paz, a darth, a fookers etc)! | |

Promotions as runners up? Sounds like a barrel being scraped to me there. But if we are going to count runners up as success then England were Euro Runners up in 2020 and 2024. |
Promotion is promotion is promotion - a success however you achieve it, even through the playoffs.
If you don't consider promotion as being successful, achieving something and winning (promotion), then you're just trying to spin it negatively.
Being in a knockout competition, the only 'success' is winning. Therefore England haven't had any success in 60 years. I've experienced numerous Town 'successes' in that time (8 by my count) - the first being in 1968. | | | |

Genuinely seems like they're so desperate for an argument that they've convinced themselves a promotion isn't a success. It's utterly bizarre |  | | |

It's pretty funny that you, of all people, thinks someone who downarrows to get kicks and wind people up should grow up. You've pretty much downarrowed everything I've posted in this thread.
And about 5 or 6 people took the piss out of you in Ryorry's thread because you tried to be edgy and made a fool of yourself, like you're doing again here.

Yeah the 5 or 6 being usual gang who pick on people yeah. When it comes to making yourself look stupid, you should remember you're the guy who didnt know where to buy a suit. | |

With Thomas Tuchel in charge couldn’t care less
We have had our best result under English managers
Ramsey
Robson
Venables
Southgate
Foreign managers don’t get it and never will
So Ipswich please | | | |

Always Ipswich first for me.
My interest in international football has steadily declined over the years, for many reasons, with some of the reasons below :
Player’s squabbling over appearance fees etc
Tournaments going to the highest bidder
Qualification and finals being more about maximising revenue than sporting excellence
Non English players and Managers | | | |

Do England players squabble over appearance fees? My understanding was they had always agreed to give an appearance fee to charity and this still stands? Can't remember anyone arguing over it, but could be wrong
I think a lot of those criticisms could also be levelled at club football to be fair. Players squabbling over contracts, money having a huge impact on tournaments and venues, everything being about maximising revenue, zero English managers have won the EPL etc etc | | | |
