God save our gracious Queen,
Long live our noble Queen,
God save the Queen!
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us;
God save the Queen!
O Lord our God arise,
Scatter her enemies
And make them fall;
Confound their politics,
Frustrate their knavish tricks,
On Thee our hopes we fix,
God save us all!
Thy choicest gifts in store
On her be pleased to pour;
Long may she reign;
May she defend our laws,
And ever give us cause
To sing with heart and voice,
God save the Queen!

ooops...England just equalised...:D
Why can't they play like that when they are ahead?

Didnt Beckham miss a penalty shot earlier in the championship too :confused:
-
bastage referee.
england were cheated out of a perfectly good goal at the end of the second half that would have won the game.
couldnt really blame beckham for the penalty miss. he was first up and was first to get the fugged up penalty spot and slipped. all the other players knew about it after that
Still, portugal were the better team overall, well won on penalties.
:(

gniark gniark ... one more down :p

I think the ref disallowed it for obstructing the goaly, which was a bad, bad call IMHO. Nothing wrong with that goal at all.
Portugal played well though, very well.
-
shut up froggy, no typh piccies for you! :)
and if you hadnt been gifted the England vs France game by us bringing that pos Emile Heskey on. You would have been the one playing portugal.
-
Ref should never have a top level match again.
No basis whatsoever for disallowing that goal.
-
Gutted.
Beckham is a bloody liability on penalties.

GO CZECH REPUBLIC!

Strafffo, you are a bloody frog!
Ravs :)

Then again...I think that Portugal deserved to win.
They had all the possession. We were lucky to get to the penalties.

The action of Sol Campbell was correct indeed, but another English player obstructed Portuguese GK, from what I saw on TV
-
bollocks. There is always a ruck in goal and in whistle isn't blown. Who was that person who said England would lose and it would be contravertial? I'm sure someone posted that on this bbs

Ricardo runs on duracell batteries...he looked just as fresh at the end as he did at the start.

Lol, you have all my comprehension then....that match was a blast
-
Stegor. Would have been better if we'd won. Why are we so bloody unlucky on penalties?
Still it was a great match. I just hope the England 'thug' brigade don't embarass our country even more tonight.

A Great game! It's a pity Rooney could not play more, anyway, the better team won.
gripen

Bah! if Rooney had been playing the better team would have won. I think England's mistake was that they built their entire strategy around him.

I saw the replay on the news. Why was the goal disallowed - offside? The Portuguese goalkeeper appeared to be wearing the same colour shirt as England and it was difficult to see who was where...
I also saw David Beckham doing his Chris Waddle impersonation. :(

The linesman actually allowed the goal. It was the bastage swiss referee that disallowed it.

For the record I don't care of the football at all :)
I'm a handball ,rugby fan
and I'm in front of my PC during the match Greece/France :D

There is one 'O' in loses. Sorry to be pedantic. But I hate that.
As for 'Engerland' well as per the usual script. They lost the first match, redeemed themselves against a weaker team and tonight will scrape through. They do that in every tournament. They may win the quarter final and go through to the semi's or go out in the quarters. Either way they lose at some point because Beckham or whoever misses a penalty or the opposition gets a goal from a dodgy decision or an offside goal.
It's always the same. England is nothing if not predictable.
Oh and the hooligans will riot again, get arrested and claim:
1 They were nowhere near the riot
2 The police started it
3 They police beat them
4 They are completely innocent.
But good luck England anyway.
Frightenly accurate I think. I think I should go into the fortune telling business.
I have to say as an almost unbiased Irishman :rolleyes: (with an English brother in law and a couple of nephews good enough maybe to play for England, although I'd prefer they declared for Ireland). :) that England did not play well enough to win.
The goal was 'route one' basic stuff, all credit to Owen for taking it. But you won't win matches with that tactic at this level.
The loss of Rooney killed it for England. He was the team in this tournament. England would have won with him on the pitch.
What happened to Beckham? That imposter was not him. Somebody call the police!
That goal, I have to say the goalkeeper was held down by an English player. Blame him for the loss. Cambell's goal was good but his teammate cost England the game. You can't blame the ref. He was a bit pedantic being Swiss and all but he was technically correct. I can say that as I'm not thinking with my heart.
I now predict Portugal will win the tournament and England will console themselves with the thought of what might have been. But hey at least the French went out, to Greece:confused: :confused:

He did not hold the goalie down.
He was nearer the ball than the goalie and spread his arms preparing to jump for it, at no time did he take his eyes off the ball and was probably not even aware the goalie was coming.
The goalie came in and tried to reach up from under the england player to get the ball.
He could not get to the ball so that means the goal is disallowed ?
Ref was an idiot.
Btw Tesco a large store chain in UK, has a special offer on.
Free eye tests for swiss nationals.
