BS2 Red Posted July 11, 2021 Report Share Posted July 11, 2021 As a Bristol City and England fan (born after 1966), the idea of actually witnessing my team winning a major trophy sounds like a daydream.

The 2002 German team were very average at best but they had a fairly easy route to the final. Of course the 2002 World Cup had so many dodgy refereeing decisions that it’s hard to take that World Cup too seriously! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People were praising Portugal for winning last euros but they finished 3rd in a group of Iceland, Hungary and Austria. Before being Switzerland, Poland and Wales on the way to the final!

cityexile Posted July 11, 2021 Report Share Posted July 11, 2021 If leaked side of correct is Pickford, Trippier, Walker, Maguire, Stones, Shaw, Rice, Phillips, Mount, Sterling, Kane. Five at the back, two DMs. At least he solved the debate as to Saka, Sancho or Grealish I suppose as the creative midfielder. Got us to the final so really hard to critique, but really is a cautious first approach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given Allstars at the top of Park St had a queue of around 400 from 10am this morning I think you'd be lucky! I reckon you'd have more luck in a local pub, but even that's unlikely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their feigning injury to time waste, exaggerated rolling around and ‘falling over’ tactics to break up the flow of the game. Two things are vital 1) that England score first to force the Italians out. 2) a tough referee who doesn’t tolerate any underhand antics. I read somewhere recently (or maybe it was in a Southgate interview) that England had worked out who the likely last 8 would be in the tournament and had the lot of them watched over a number of games, including Denmark and Italy.

Heading down to the pub for lunch soon (ko is 2pm where I live) and honestly just going to try to enjoy the match, enjoy the final, and hopefully enjoy the result.
