England, My England

I see it’s the England — Spain friendly tonight.

Sigh. I find it really hard to have any motivation or interest in England friendlies these days, probably because:

  • Friendlies are invariably crap.
  • England friendlies in particular are invariably dull, dull, dull, games
  • England — now with added “Wembley” — will be reverting to being a Southern team again, rather than a national one.
  • England appointed a manager who has achieved virtually nothing within football, had a style of play at his previous club that I loathed and produced boring football, appears to be doing pretty much the same with England, and on top of that he’s a manager I don’t rate particularly highly.
  • On top of that, it’s a friendly and is therefore utterly, utterly meaningless.

Obviously, I’m going to watch it anyway but you can maybe see why I’m not looking forward to it that much…

    here’s an idea, don’t watch those overpaid part-time ballerinas and do something a bit more productive with 2 hours of your life.
    like de-fleeing the cats or unblocking the gutters.
    you’ll feel a lot more satisfaction than you will after watching england draw 1-1.

    Mark’s right you know. I’ve got some problems with the CSS on Revish you could help with, just imagine how much more satisfying that will be… ;-)

    Mark- you were optimistic there, weren’t you?
