    Andy Gray is the biggest tosser commentary could have ever imagined (but he is Scottish). But that suits Sky.

    But hey, didn't Eng-er-land do well! I will assume that by the time I have posted this, MacScum has resigned?

    Hopefully, it will teach the morons at the English FA three things:

    1. (this is hard) You appoint the best possible candidate for the job.
    2. You don't allow American dickheads wearing body armour disguised in the name of sport anywhere near the hallowed turf ever again.
    3. You resign on mass for being responsible for number 1.

    Cnuts.

    An absolutely dire game from England's point of view. Croatia certainly meant business, and ive seen better Sunday league pitches.
    The best team won. Now give Jose the job.

    a $zillion spent on a new stadium and they go and buy Farmer Giles' back field for the playing surface.
    someone should be shot.

    I have never seen someone drink so much water as Mc Claren did during the game.
    Could he have been nervous?

    Talk about clutching at straws, they kept mentioning how Andorra were only one goal down and the Ruskies had 10 men, jeez desperation indeed.

    Nice touch by Mcclown at the end where he chomped off and left his team to flounder around on the pitch and take the abuse. Classy guy, I don't think so.

    I'm sure the record books will not detail the fact that all the 'beyond our control' variables miraculously turned against us, and that we were also unlucky.

    Easier said, we lost and deserved it, but the sweet FA will no doubt look for a scapegoat beyond their front door.

    Unfortunately he didn't have the dignity. Waited to be sacked so he could get his £2.5 million pay off.

    I'm sure most of us wouldn't be so terrible... we would have resigned and forgotten about the money of course.

    In the end, it's not really McClaren's fault... he has always been an inept manager, so wjhy did the FA think he would suddenly become wonderful for England?

    Yes I caught this occasionally as the England match became increasingly depressing. Where was David James?

    I was impressed to see that Portugal were beating Finland 45 - 0 . The channel number slotted nicely into the on-screen scoreboard.
