Created in 2006 to mark England’s World Cup exit, subsequently revisited / re-posted for the 2010 World Cup… 2012 Euros… 2014 World Cup… 2016 Euros  ( links to associated posts ), and now the turn of  2018 World Cup in Russia. While the pay view TV & other media clean up along with sales of lager & Smart TVs hitting the jackpot, the question we have to ask ourselves is “Can England even get out of their group with World Cup penalty-misser Southgate in charge?
Can it get any worse than the FA’s blue-eyed boy plodder Hodgson era?

Updates (of doom?) tf…..

08/07/2018 After scraping through the group of minnows, they’re through to the semi-finals of a major tournament – first time since the Euros in 1990.  The media in raptures and talk of the Cup returning home.UPDATE, (post Croatia game )

14/7/2018
England out of the Cup and a further defeat to Belgium lands them in 4th place.

This, the 5th posting of ” England Football Fan” after 12 long years of post-tournament Prozac-munching by the poor short-changed fans; before its transfer to the London Dada sales catalogue.

A recent comment on Twitter pretty well sums things up regarding the state of play of the “bootiful game” – as well as just about everywhere else – here in uber-congested “anger land”..

2022 WORLD CUP

6th generation upload, December ’22

Update; 4/12/22. Through to the World Cup semis – looks promising… again 😉

Update II – 10th December 2022. England out, losing to France 2 -1, marking it 56 years since the country that invented the game has won either a Euro or World football trophy. Time to give penalty-missing plodder Southgate a rest?

( well at least they didn’t go out on penalties again….did they? – ed )

Concrete work ” England Football Fan” is for sale at a price commensurate with the number of years wait for another trophy post-1966 World Cup.
Ideal investment for someone pessimistic about the future of international English soccer. ( Next up; UEFA EURO 2024 )

2022 price; £56,000.
