After That Game.....For Bobby........

Well as I said in my last post I would pass comment after friday nights World Cup game..so as an ageing baby boomer(I'm as old as dirt) who was a mere 10 years old back in that glorious summer of 1966 I cant help wondering where all that pride and do or die spirit has gone with our national football team called England...I remember back then in 66 we drew against Uruguay in our opening game but in the next game showed the character and skills needed to progress...Going back to friday evening you like myself were probably sitting or watching somewhere with expectatation...Expectation disappeared in the first half and hope was all I had to cling onto for the second but deep down you like me knew the outcome as the full time whistle got ever closer...The post match reaction of the players and manager didnt bring much comfort or belief that we can beat Slovenia on wednesday...I hope Joe Cole plays but this manager Fabio Capello doesnt seem to read the game or make reactive decisions like Jose does...love him or hate him..So lets hope normal service will be resumed on wednesday afternoon and maybe all those involved in the England F.C. camp should watch the current Carling lager advert on TV a few times and find a sense of purpose...We shall see..For Bobby....Come On England...
