After this week's performance when will England being rubbish at sports in general, but particularly the beloved national game of football? Yeah, sure there are flashes in the pan but generally they are rubbish. This year we have seen England lose in the RWC final, England not qualify for Euro 2008, an Englishman not win Wimbledon yet again, Lewis Hamilton not take the World Title.... etc
Is it not time, 41 years after 1966 and all that and 30 years (?) after Wimbledon success, and only two ashes series in 20 odd years plus one RWC in 20 years...... that they wake up? The policy of sport for all, non-competitiveness at school etc etc makes me think the English do not have a "killer/winner" instinct.... Added to this, 60% of the Premier League is not English and no one wants to be England manager, the most likely candidate being an Italian who cannot speak English..... sorry days for England! Any thoughts?
PS I am not a gloating Scot or Aussie, I am just trying to be objective!!!
