Well, England have outdone themselves this year... No passion, no drive, and no solid defence. Football is in English blood and it's always anguishing to see how little our team of upstarts is able to produce! Still, at least now England fans can actually enjoy the rest of the World Cup, which has thrown out some exciting and surprising clashes. Always a slight shame to see the amateur dramatics on show, though - they seem particularly prevalent at this World Cup. I've lost a lot of interest in football in general based on the time-wasting and foul attitude exhibited by many of the players.

I will turn my attentions to supporting Portugal (purely because lovely Ronny is a dish ). They seem to be having a rough ride of it too, though!
