Hey Lancaster - is this your stalker?🤔 :P :P He is one hell of an odd individual but you can back him up in other ways ;-) MOD: One month ban handed out to burnleychris for off-topic and frankly, unnecessary remarks towards LancasterClaret. Please avoid continuing this line of discussion. Thanks MO...

Football fans are all big and tough when they know they won't receive a public flogging for their behaviour or 10yrs in jail....

Not 10 years in luxury either. Watch "60 days in" - you're basically sharing **** with 90 other people.

Is it just a coincidence that the absence of alcohol at games means zero trouble?

People are scared of being locked up for 30 years for sneezing twice.

There’s no character to this tournament. Knowing that they are playing in temporary stadiums, doesn’t seem to show the beginning of a legacy to me. It’s reminds me of playing video games and selecting generic stadium number 4. Everything looks the same. It’s clear to me now that World Cups need to ...

Won’t they be marking Giroud? I’d say he’s slower than both of them.

Who said anything about marking? Walker will handle Mbappe as he's done in the Champions League.

No. I'm on about when the ball is in play. We take too long to get the ball into midfield. We need to speed it up.

Kyle Walker he can handle Mbappe.

It's more central defence I'm referring to - way too slow. But I do agree that Walker can handle Mbappe, as he did in the Champions League. Cut out Mbappe you basically cut out France.

Yep both Stones and Maguire have been excellent so far.

I hope they speed up vs France.

Great entertainment.
Andros Townsend is very very good.
Maguire has been one of England's best performers so far, showed why he's been included.

Townsend getting decisions wrong.
Maguire slow in defence.

But I agree with it being great entertainment.

I understand your original post in which you claim, idiotic ally, that people who happen to be vegans or anti vaxxers will be proud to announce they are not watching. I just wonder what you're basing this nugget of wisdom on? Is it all vegans and anti vaxxers? Some of them? No, you haven't a clue. ...

What's the problem?
Is it yet another law, vegans and/or non-vaccinated people may not watch the World Cup or just more evidence of your stupid, idle prejudice?

"Go back to school.." Ffs.

It means you're a bit thick and you don't understand the original post.

burnleychris

I'll stick my neck out, and I know this will come me back to haunt me :) , but I think that the winner of England/France will go on to watch the tournament. I disagree with your first bit, as it's been of a good standard. Spain and Brazil have played excellent football. But this bit caught my eye -...

England if we can get past France have every chance as no team have yet stood out as outstanding that I have seen.

I agree with this bit. One thing that has stood out is that no team has stood out

burnleychris

I wasn't discussing people not watching, but replying to your comment that some don't want England to win, so it was difficult to understand, as it had nothing to do with my post, or even yours which I was replying to. Your reply suggested it was in reply to why I said some people aren't watching. ...

Leeds apparently looking for a striker.

They've also been linked with Chris Wood, so Gyokeres is no surprise.

Now that would be funny.

Why would vegans not watch the World Cup?

Or people who have not had a vaccination?

Go back to school.

As it says on the tin. People are being controversial by saying they aren't watching. They want to stand out. Not difficult to understand.

The emergence of nations like Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, Japan has shown how the game has spread from what used to be Europe v South American countries. The 2022 World Cup is now a truly 'World' contest and more diverse than its ever been. It's been a treat to watch it. I've loved it so far. S...

Anyone who says they aren’t watching if England reach the final are either liars or Scottish/Welsh…..

Or attention-seekers. You forgot that one.

I’m a man of few principles (😏) but I think it is easy to stand firm on this. I can’t even be bothered with the reasons any more. Many on here said they wouldn’t watch it but I wonder how many have changed because England have beaten a few poor teams. Don’t get me wrong I’ll be sick if we did win i...

My thoughts haven’t changed. Not watched it. Don’t intend to. Don’t really care how we are doing as we shouldn’t be there.

Can somebody give houseboy a bit of love.

burnleychris

In no particular order. Stones and Maguire are too slow. They don't turn quick enough and don't have the vision to get the ball into midfield quick enough - something that is needed if we're to be more potent. Jermaine Jenas doesn't really know what's going on. Often makes a decision and then the re...

Somebody actually replied with:
"Doubt he could’ve done any of that with today’s tactics."

He should be banned from watching or commenting on football for 10 years.

burnleychris

So far, my thoughts are: Get the ball into midfield as quickly as possible. Our central defence is FAR TOO SLOW! They lack vision. Sure, they can defend when the ball is in the air, but when the football is on the ground we should allow them to have as least amount of possession as humanly possible....

Crazy to think some experts didn’t want Foden in this team.

Nobody who knows anything about football would ever say not to start Foden. He was the obvious one.

Just heard through a family connection at Coventry that they will be looking at £30M and that Leeds and Hull could be in the race for him.

Leeds back to using us as scouts. That pathetic club can fill their boots then for £30m.

Fulham last year?

Nah. For me, we're playing the best football of any Championship football over the last 10 years.

I just love the position we're currently in. Rumoured to be in for one of the best forwards in the Championship and playing champagne football - probably the best football in the Championship over the last 10+ years.

Depends. Laura's what?

She's on the Darts and does very well.
