Forever England

I didn't watch any of the England games during Euro 2012. But one thing that was very plain to me was that for once the majority of people thought they had little chance of progressing far in the competition.

After three matches and qualifying for the quarter finals, the delusions of grandeur kicked in and the obligatory comments of "Maybe England can go all the way" were uttered - only to be smashed to pieces by a far superior Italy.

This leads me to the questions: Why are England generally mediocre? Why can't we pass the ball competently? Why are the England players paid colossal salaries (by their clubs) along with top players from other countries and perform so badly for the national team? It doesn't make sense. Maybe they should take pay cuts... yeah right... and pigs might fly!!

Rant over.
