Iceland won, how disappointing.

Iceland has like 500,000 population while England has like 64 Million.....

England should be at least 200 times better at getting a better team together.

This is a real let down.

It's taking part that counts.
- Hodsgon wont be sacked
- The same players will be picked for future tournaments
- Nothing will change
- The cycle shall repeat.

Money. Who needs team spirit when you're already minted by your £100k+ a week contracts? Brexit will be good for English football anyway, less money in the Premier League = more chances for English players :wink:
The Brexit result is manifesting in all aspects of life, even football. Amazing.
Farage for England.

We need to take our football back

true
Haha! I'm happy for Iceland :smile:
EPL and english FCs are overrun by foreigners so maybe these guys had no leg to stand on literally. Now there might be a chance for eng footballers to get better when they get more pitch time with less int'l ballers :wink:

I disagree because a larger population gives more choice and more options when finding footballers especially in a country like England.

Sarcasm I hope?
Couldn't be happier for Iceland! They played miles better than England and thoroughly deserved to go through. Come on Iceland! France here we come!

If anything this is why eng bottled it. Because eng has a bunch of self haters. And too many foreign players.
