If there was an insane bookies, I could of made a fortune! I really don’t rate Heskey as much as other people do. I mean, sure he works hard, gave people a target, and setup a couple of chances. But I miss the days of Owen, where his speed could create a goal out of nothing. How unfair on Defoe aswell, 9 goals in his last 9 England game appearences (or so I hear) – and he STILL doesn’t get a start. Yet again, Heskey missed a sitter – I don’t want to rely on that, at the world cup.

The England womans team made us proud, up until last night. They reached the European Championships final, for the first time. They were down 2 nil to start, then pulled one back. Germany scored again making it 3-1, only for England to crawl back another. It seemed like it would be a fairly tight game, even against the MIGHTY German women. However. It wasn’t to be, the game ending at 6-2 to the deserved Germans.

Germany’s Euro success was their fifth in a row, and they have also won the last two World Cups.

Simply put, you don’t beat Germany.
