I'm not sure how many times Southgate needs a reality check.

This England team is all the gear and no idea

This is the comment I have just had from the Scottish lads I go to Newcastle games with “I’m so glad the English FA is so incompetent, cause if you had a good coach you’d be winning both the cups with the team you’ve had”

When does Southgate’s contract expire ?

They’ll extend it, he’s a safe pair of hands, doesn’t cause any problems, dresses and speaks well and has most non football loving people eating out of his hands.

Wonder if it's run by the Conservatives

Bad news Slovenia v England is on ITV and ITV have a worse record for broadcasting wins.
Since WC 98:
ITV broadcasted 30 matches with England winning 8 of them (26.8%)
BBC broadcasted 28 matches (including today’s) won 19 (67.8%)

Is England's ITV curse real? Three Lions record on BBC and ITV

England fans have long been wary of the 'ITV curse' but ahead of Euro 2024 how does their record stack up against the BBC?

Also i remember the Euro 96 semi v Germany was on ITV.

Wonder why ITV have such an awful record

So what's the reasoning for the push to get Bellingham into CM considering he's been playing as an AM for Madrid all season?

I refer you to my earlier post

I imagine Gareth defending his tactics much like

 

[spudbynight]

That was a vintage Southgate performance!

On ITV probably the pick of the group matches - Spain v Italy.

Because Safegate is a moron

 

[fez]

That was astonishingly bad

 

[IPBA]

I am not sure who to blame, the players, the gaffer or both. If you cant beat teams like Serbia and Denmark comfortably then what chance have you got against stronger competitors.

Apparently "We don't have a natural replacement for Kalvin Philips." Which is why we look clueless in midfield.

Not England fan but I said to my friend who is English, if FA had any sense they should throw all their money at Klopp. His style suits English players perfectly and he knows the league.

Funny isn't it, Wharton ran every one of Palace's last 10 game this season. Mainoo had a breakthrough season, Yet we have to 'experiment' in a tourneament.

Southgate must have a lot of friends in the media given how little the press goes after him.

Southgate out as far as I'm concerned, no more excuses, playing politics, token social gestures should be saving him at this point.
