Looks as though Gerrard to Carlisle is done. He's a decent lower league defender but I've never known someone think so highly about themselves. Loves a Twitter spat as well and best for all parties if he leaves. No real loss for me.
The evolution of this team through the tournament has been refreshing.
However, the evolution of Scottish fans is even more impressive. They've gone from saying we're shit, to saying we can only beat shit teams, to now not caring about us. Impressive in the space of 3 weeks.
I hate the play antics that these smaller teams use but fair play to Iran overall, they have given it a good go.
conceding only one in each game against Spain and Portugal is an achievement in itself.
It's not just the Welsh and Scottish, there's a lad at my work from n.Ireland who was slagging us off for weeks before the start....funnily enough though after we've started well, he doesn't care about us.
They really are an odd bunch. I worked in Heywood until recently so a good mix of Oldham, dale and bury. They have such a bizarre holier than thou attitude.
A Tranmere fan who used to come in work said the Clint Hill thing was what started him hating us. For me it was always the Ian and Ronnie Moore factor. Despite UTS comments about beign desperate for a rival, i dont really care about Bury or Rochdale. Ive always had a dislike for Tranmere though...
