Never in doubt. Always said Southgate was a great manager. Especially with the advice he gets from Hasselwank.😄

We got lucky tonight and will have to be better against the Swiss or they will roll all over us.

Sometimes you have to get lucky. You could hear the boos when Toney came on with so little left. Could we limp all the way to the final?

The current Mrs T had the TV, and I was watching on my lap top with headphones, and you could clearly hear the boos throughout the second half everytime the ball went backwards to Pickford. Who was very lucky when the lad tried lobbing him from the halfway line. Im not a fan of this keeper/sweeper mullarky. He is going to get caught out soon. Good Cobblers link at the final whistle, with Toney, Walker, and JFH all on the pitch. We must improve to progress, too many players were waving their arms around, unsure of who to pass it too. Thats just basic schoolboy stuff. And Southgate needs to make his substitutions earlier. And Guehi will be a big loss for the next game. Decent goal though. https://x.com/i/status/1807485272851947936

Im not much of a Roy Keane fan, but, he talked down his fellow presenters for having a go at Southgate and the players, he just stated that in a major tournament you have to get results and the performance doesnt matter, the win is all that counts.

The best thing about last nights game was that we had two ex-Cobblers in the side at the same time, with Ivan 'assisting' Kane with the second goal. Pity Ivan didn't score right at the end but he certainly gave it a whack.
I thought they were lucky buggers to win and I have to say I felt sorry for Slovakia. We shall have to up our game against the Swiss, but let's not forget Scotland drew with them.

Agreed but I think that’s simply because he is a contrarian- had the others been taking that line he would have been giving it both barrels on how s***e both the team and the manager were. He’s good entertainment value but a bit of a pratt (saying for a friend obviously)

I hope Ivan has told Bellingham his overhead goal was not as good as Toney's debut overhead goal at Dagenham!

There's a lot of teams trying not to win it, who will blink first and show that they are serious contenders?

Stuart Burt is another Cobbler in the Quarter Finals:

The English officials are probably the only Englishmen hoping that England get knocked out...

Well done Spain tonight, I thought it was a good game tonight but don't these teams know that they are supposed to make about 20 sideways and backwards passes near the half way line before they go forward.

Not saying that I am happy about that, but I've just been arrested for running down the street bollock naked singing allelujah.

As we build up our expectations for today's game, as much as we would really enjoy to give someone a good tonking, remember that we are unbeaten in the tournament so far and if it stays that way to 14th July, we have a really good* chance of winning the whole thing.
*Let's just ignore the prospect of penalties.
Remember this, it still applies.

We are certainly lucky being in the easy side of the draw and got lucky on Wednesday, how long can our luck hold? We certainly need to up our game but even the Scots held the Swiss to a draw.
