Not QPR, But England National Team get On My Nerves

[qblockpete]

Make John Terry captain, then because we are playing Ghana in a so called friendly, (which are ripping national fans off) a select few can have the night off.

No wonder supporters are turning off England in there droves. Lets not forget Ghana had a better World Cup than us and we haven't really got the right to treat this game with any disrespect. This shows just exactly the problem with players culture in todays world of football. They would rather play for there clubs and have no passion for the England jersey, so why as fans should we? It used to be such a big thing playing for England, now you could be a two bob player and get an England cap. Find the whole thing disgraceful.

I hear all the c.rap about we can look at different formations and players, but this game has been made into a non event and when the so called bigger players are available they will walk straight back into the National side.

England, The FA and the treatment of ordinary fans makes a mockery of the game. Its exactly why we never do any good in the major competitions

THE FA cup has already lost all its tradition and England Internationals are going the same way.

I blame GP and Israel.

[qblockpete]

I blame GP for the war in Libya, but thats a different subject altogether.

Have to agree Pete I use to follow England with a passion, not the same as with Rangers but still with a passion. Didn't even bother watching the game on Saturday and why would I pay £30 or I presume more to go and watch a friendly which doesn't even have half the first team playing.
England B games never took off and this is just another wedge between the Fans and the FA.
If some are going to be given time off why arrange it in the first place ? I get more and more perplexed at International football every year.

Have not missed an England game home or away for about 7 years now and still love doing it though I must admit I am not really in to the friendly games unless they are abroad

Still tomorrows game is only £15 for me being a Member but I would not like to be paying £30 or more thats for sure

Nothing excites me with England at the minute. Doubt it will again until 'Twitch' from Spurs takes over as manager. Capello has been in charge for 3 years now and its an absolute insult that in that time he hasn't bothered to learn English enough to do proper interviews. I have no repsect for him as a manager because I feel he has no respect to learn the national langauge of his employers!

[bushcelt1]

arry boy will bring some passion back to the england set-up for sure.

Harry or Cappello can't tell Terry or Ferdinand to behave themselves, same goes for lampard. The only guy I respect is Gerrard. Ashley Cole might have a lot of skill and pace, but he's another arrogant superstar who can choose his games. Then you have Rooney who throws himself into tackles that would get him sent off in Europe or at the World Cup, the reason he gets away with murder in the EPL I don't know, but he'll never see red. The England team is over-rated, if Rooney goes down Eng have no strikers. I hope Lennon will make the right side his own.

I love England - and sorry Pete - what a load of Tosh. England games are attracting massive demand for tickets. Home and away.

Rewind the clock to the old Wembley when we had 20,00 at one friendly.

To be honest I am so bored of these anti England poast every time we play a game. Once is bad enough, but I am sure you posted something very similar last week.

Why don't you go and start another message board, an anti England one?

[davidla80]

It's not just England - also some of the German players (for instance) are not playing games this week so I really don't buy into this "players-don't-give-a-damn" belief that people have. if it's good enough for the german players it should be OK for us too!

Completely given up on England, hope Ghana beat us (if we haven't played them alreday???)

"No wonder supporters are turning off England in there droves."

Really ? It's a sellout !

But Ghana are complaining to the FA about only getting the top tier !

[C-Dizzle]

Haven't seen a half decent england performance since Euro 2004, which we were unlucky to lose to be honest. All other performances/squads/managers have been w.ank since then
R.I.P International football, it's going down the pan

Filling the stadium and those tuning in are 2 different things.
