That is 12 out of a potential 42 (11 plus 3 subs times 3). No wonder the national team has not won anything since 1966! (with a bit of help from a corrupt linesman )

So it's a final score of:

England 1 (World Cup 1966)
Netherlands 1 (Euro 88)

2 of the 3 (along with Spain) perennial under-achievers of European Football

UEFA cup quater finals tonight.
COME ON YOU SPURS!!!
Tottenham vs Sevilla(at sevilla)
A real test for Martin Jol's boys, but I genuinely belive we cna pull off a shock in this game, we have won out last 7(i think) Euro games, Berbatov proving himself to be an amazing player, Keane coming into form, Defoe playing ok at the moment, all should be contesting for the two forward positions, our midfield, mightily strong at the moment, defending our weakness though, with our usual Captain, and Centre back out(Ledleey King), our backup Ricardo Rocha out do to having played for Benfica in the CL earlier in the competion we are now relying on our right back to take up a central role.

Hi,

................come on Spurs, you can win, and what a shock if they do..

[Wim]

Big evening for Chelsea coming up ! And for Jose Mourinho. It would be a mistake to sack him if Chelsea shouldn't qualify for the last 4. He is a mega coach, a little arrogant and quite funny sometimes

[Wim]

And one of those fabulous evenings at Old Trafford...

[Blondie]

............talking of which, 7 - 1, 7 - 1, 7 - 1, 7 - 1 [and getting a bit carried away here, although brilliant game last night..]

[Wim]

Yeah and C. Ronaldo rules, the Master himself played brillantly. As he did also with Portugal against Belgium las month ... (we lost 4-0 there )

[April madness]

so, your team coach's brilliant strategy he told to the whole world before that match didn't really work, Wim?

[Blondie]

....Hi Wim/April...I agree, Ronaldo really is a master, or "The Master", incredible really to have so much skill in someone so young, although not sure how old he is?

[April madness]

he's 22, according to my search in wikipedia really young, thought he looks about 25.

[Blondie]

yeah, that is young, wow! [and one of the football commentators on ITV channel last night (Andy Townsend) said that they would have to probably insure him for around £100 million]... double wow!!

[Wim]

yeah Blondie, Real is offering 80 mio euro for him this 5 mio euro more than Zidane's transfer from Juve to Real some years ago. This would be the highest amount ever.

[Blondie]

Hi Wim,

..... the world is his oyster, so to speak, and interesting to see if he will be tempted by 80 mio euro? [hope not.........]

[April madness]

he better does not go to that team, not until they get rid of Fabio C.
