Harry Redknapp, England manager? (Awful writing)

Whenever a Harry Redknapp team does well I start to worry. I start to worry that the team is about to go out of business or that someone might declare him the best manager they have ever worked under, but most of all I worry that it is only a matter of time before he [...]

Denmark vs England: Liveblog

England vs Bulgaria (5-1 – overly optimistic?) Liveblog

England are yet to have their post World Cup watershed moment – France have installed a new coach (albeit an appointment that was arranged during the tournament) and held crisis talks, Brazil too have a new manager, Italy have done the same and even brought back Antonio Cassano.

Five steps forward for England – including a list of England’s best 32 under 23s (Part three…of five)

How can we get success like this?
Tradition dictates that all value judgements made before an England World Cup exit be immediately reformed in the weeks and days that elapse following it. The regularity of the clamber has undoubtedly dampened its effect over the years and, as such, scepticism about the extent to which anything England will change after the latest [...]

The case for England fans supporting Germany in tonight’s semi final (posted yesterday…by accident)

Mesut Özil ripped apart England’s under 21s a year ago
Sitting, inconsolable, in the aftermath of England’s 4-1 mauling at the hands of Germany, I started to wonder how good watching the game must’ve been for anyone supporting Die Mannschaft, and for that matter how good supporting the German national team must be at most tournaments [...]
