Sorry, this always makes me laugh when you all get so carried away after one game! 🤣🤣

Lives where? Not everyone on MN lives in England

SleepyTimeTea · 21/11/2022 16:03

Also, no, it's not fucking coming home. At least not until the women play. Then you might have a chance. If the US doesn't take it home.

incognitocheeto · 21/11/2022 16:03

I don't live in England

Pixiedust1234 · 21/11/2022 16:04

I think it won't happen. Our players are never quite good enough.

PinkButtercups · 21/11/2022 16:04

Nah, probably not.

I won't be watching it, DP will in a dark corner somewhere very very far away from me 🤣

incognitocheeto · 21/11/2022 16:04

Even if I supported England I wouldn't be watching due to the location it's being played in

Agree with this although it would be amazing.

XanaduKira · 21/11/2022 16:07

I'd love it to come home (not English but live in England with an English husband and DCs born here) but sadly I doubt it. England never seem to be able to deliver when it matters. Plus I'm so angry about it being in Qatar that it would be crap that this is the one they win!

Hope Wales does well too but again, angry for them that their first World Cup in over 50 years is in Qatar!

AllThingsServeTheBeam · 21/11/2022 16:10

I highly doubt it. Can always hope.

This WC is just doomed though. No good feelings at all.

x2boys · 21/11/2022 16:14

This is mumsnet they love to hate the English football team ,if they do manage to get into the final there will be eleventy billion threads about how posters are definitly not watching 🤣

Mumsnet HATES anything and everything about England OP, have you not been here long? 🙄😄

LetsGoFlyAKiteee · 21/11/2022 16:22

Good they can score..need to sharpen up the defence a bit though.

Or, like the OP, much of MN seems to think that everyone and their mother is English and live in England.

CornishGem1975 · 21/11/2022 16:33

Well my mother is not English but I do live in England, and (don't hate me Mumsnetter) am happy to be English.

I hope they do well OP, I've got a decent bet on 😁

Asher33 · 21/11/2022 16:35

They've only played Iran. Not like they played a team like Germany or Spain.

MarshaBradyo · 21/11/2022 16:38

It’s a bit early to say but it was a great game and they played well

Exciting if they do well

balalake · 21/11/2022 16:38

England quarter finalists at best. Wales quarter finalists if they beat the US tonight and get through to the last 16.

Eleusa · 21/11/2022 16:39

Well, I love this England team- felt so proud of them during the Euros and again today. I don't know whether they can do it but they're the best team we've had in my lifetime and they do have a chance. Hoping for Saka to score the winner in the final, what a player.

Well it wasn't aimed at you then was it. 'We' are not all mothers, 'we' are not all middle class snobs..do you go in every thread you have nothing to contribute to and say this type of thing?
