I get fed up of the hype around England. We used to be capable of winning tournaments like this and perhaps justified it, but it's now a bit like the media whipping us into a frenzy on the premise that Fulham are going to challenge for premier league glory. I feel so detached from the England pl

Why would you want your own country not to qualify? I understand not being that upset when they inevitably lose but surely you'd prefer them to do well than not? Just don't get it myself. Italia 90 was the happiest I ever remember being with football. OK so I was only 9 but it was brilliant. I
