This is completely pointless, isn't it? Malta?

Absolutely. Crap, tin pot sides should have a pre-qualifying tournament before being allowed to complete in such a big competition. And so should Malta.

He has travelled past overrated. Now an England game can not be played without Rooney shoed in somewhere on the pitch.

Cannot for the life of me see how he still getting picked.   Part of the cursed golden generation.  Time for new formation.  Supporting Villa and England is crap.  But we go again.

Watching England is pretty much like watching Villa with Rooney staring as Ashley Westwood.

All I've seen in the last few England games is a bunch of millionaire footballers struggling to break down or get past a team that sits deep on their 18 yard box. They actually look clueless when confronted by a team that is intent on defending deep.

That'll be the lack of these fancy "tactics" I've been hearing about

I have been wondering around the house this morning repeating the phrase "f***ing Scotland"! They messed up what would have been a very nice 35/1 sixfold acca for me yesterday. I have just had a rant at my wife which could probably be classed as racist regarding men who wear skirts.

To be honest, if you're stupid enough to back Scotland you don't deserve any sympathy.

I see that 14 years after setting up, AFC Wimbledon have just gone above MK Dons in the league.
