@JamesMelville I hope so. Realistically, Portugal or Holland, in terms of a new winner. As for complete outsiders, Norway to get to the QFs, and then anything can happen. Ultimately, a good draw will also be just as significant as hitting good form at the right time.
@Frenkie_Woody Baggio, easy. Against Wales at Anfield when the national stadium was being built. On as a sub, the crowd demanded his inclusion. And he waved to us from a corner! Our Maradona.
@JuliaHB1 There needs to be a far greater use of referendums,as I have always said.Administrations are slow to implement change and there's always legal challenges.We need referendums on net zero,capital punishment & the ECHR for starters. Direct democracy is the only way out of this mess.
@trabs62 Sometimes the best team doesn't win the tournament. We were the best in 78 but not necessarily in 82. We were the best in 90 but Zenga blew it. I think in 06 we fitted the bill as world champs, especially after beating Germany in their own backyard.
