|  Which Scenario .... ? Ok, after the french's pathetic draw v Romania, their hammering by the Dutch and this performance (so far) v Italy, who would you have rather been a fan of .... England who didnt even make it, or france, who are pretty much, laughing stocks and will be critised for weeks in the media?

| Re: Which Scenario .... ? All very hyperthetical of course It's a very tricky one for me, would I have wanted England to get through if i knew we'd finish bottom of the group? Is finishing bottom worse than not qualifying at all? Considering how well Croatia have played is it that bad to be knocked out by them? So, it's Englands situation for me. I think! For that reason,

| Re: Which Scenario .... ? France really do look like a terrible team at the moment. They are trying to integrate new, young players, but it just seems that they cannot gel with the rest of the team...

| Re: Which Scenario .... ? You have to get there, even if it does go pear shaped when you are there. - France's situation for me

| Re: Which Scenario .... ? France are a joke anyway, I'll be honest if ever England's team was "shaped" like that I wouldnt even support them anyway. I'd rather go out in the groups than have that sort of team representing us in Europe.

| Re: Which Scenario .... ? Blatantly take the French role. England went out to a poor Russian side, showing that they are not as good as they think they are, or most commentators would dilude the idiots into thinking. At least France qualified in arguabley a tougher group, and are generally considered a far superior side.

[quote] Dont believe everything you read in the Sun, I hate the perception that others have that all the English public think we are a decent team. We are not, we are average at best with a team full of players who think they are superstars I think we are shit and our recent form proves that.

Croatia put England out not the Russians!!! - Russians just put the cap on it... No point in knocking the french either - Simply got it wrong!! England did that many times before!!!! Its a shame that most think that there is no quality in Euro 2008 because England are not there but Ive enjoyed it!!!! There is no bullshit with this...no media crap about how "Terry is the best defender in the world" or "how Lampard is the new Beckenbauer" - Time to get a life..... Euro 2008 has been great so far!!! No Ireland...So what... No England - End of the world!!!!!  Matt is SPOT ON!! Shame but he is correct

 I completely agree with you, it has been better without the media circus surrounding the English there. And yes the Russians are good, but then again, so are the Turks, the Swedes, the Italians, the Czechs!! I wouldnt knock the French as I feel they are a decent side, but they need that one spark, that theyv missed since Zidane retired.

| Re: Which Scenario .... ? The original scenario is a bit of a no brainer really - you'd far rather go there and suffer the dissappointment of missing out in the tournament proper. Who would you rather have as coach of your national side though...Domenech or McClaren?  |

| Re: Which Scenario .... ? Doesnt this now put Englands faliure in a slightly better light? Losing out to at least 2 quarter finalists doesnt seem as bad now as it did a few months ago???
