A perfect combination of goal scorers for England.
That booing of the anthem, Rice and Grealish going well so far.

I've got it on with the volume down. Remember when commentators commentated target than just going on about pre-written drivel?

Hope no one genuinely did flounce after the great Hibernophobia Conflict of whenever it was.
Always like watching Ogbene. Szmodics can feck off mind.

Of course they should all sing the national anthem, Capello stopped it and Southgate used it to reinforce togetherness and pride. Why should they sing it? It’s just a song Because it’s our country’s anthem. Show some feckin pride like the Yanks do

Show some feckin pride like the Yanks do I’m an atheist and a republican- why should I sing about two things I don’t believe in? It’s quite funny when you “patriots” get wound up by such silly things. Funny and just a little bit sad and pathetic

I missed the beginning of the game. I hope the players took the knee against racism

Same but I am also proud to be English and it’s OUR national anthem Why are national anthems important? Why is international football or any sport important? Why is anything important? Nothing is important.

Nah, it's a vision of what I hoped Corbyns Britain would be.
Down with the monarchy etc etc.

I am proud to be English and proud to be British. But please explain to me exactly why I should sing a song that exhorts a "God" I don`t believe in to enable a man who has been fortunate enough to be born into a life of wealth and privilege to "rule over" me? It doesn`t even mention the name of the flipping country for [insert name of chosen deity here]`s sake!
