Completely, but those lads were brilliant, they should be very proud. It was fun while it lasted.

Ilovewhippets · 11/07/2018 22:22

So disappointed but well done Croatia.

aldaniti · 11/07/2018 22:22

Another one here who is dead inside. I was mildly disappointed for a few minutes after the winning goal but then found bigger things to worry about!

3boys3dogshelp · 11/07/2018 22:22

Gutted but so proud of the team.

Tawdrylocalbrouhaha · 11/07/2018 22:23

I'm sad for the team (who did so well), and for my neighbours, who seem to have suffered actual physical agony during that match. It would have been lovely if they at least got to the final.

And I'm Irish.

Couldn’t give a toss thank god it’s over at last

Hillarious · 11/07/2018 22:23

Come on, they did well. It's the beginning of a new era in English football. They got further than they were expected to. Only two years to the Euros!

IChooseTheHat · 11/07/2018 22:23

Nope I’ll be glad to be able to listen to radio 1 again without them playing England songs all day. I’m sick of that bloody vindaloo one!

But they done well and much further than people thought so I hope you English are proud of them

Tr1skel1on · 11/07/2018 22:23

I don't even follow football but I would like to say well played to the young lads. Nice one, you did the UK proud (I'm not even English!)

I have never been proud of an England football team before, I am now :)

FlyingElbows · 11/07/2018 22:23

Nope. You're insufferable enough with your 1966 carry on and you were just asking for it with "it's coming home". A good match but you were deservedly beaten. Now who's for a rousing chorus of "you're going home, you're going home, you're going, you arguing home..."?! WinkGrin

GorgonLondon · 11/07/2018 22:23

No, very relieved. Now my event on Sunday might be enjoyable without being dominated by football, and people might stop smashing up ambulances and pretending to be passionate about a sport that they've never paid ten seconds' attention to before.

mydogisthebest · 11/07/2018 22:23

SharronNeedles, I agree with your post. Why is it so many people seem to be gloating that we have gone out?

Not liking football is no excuse to be so happy we lost. I hate football but I still would have liked to see England win.

mtpicasso · 11/07/2018 22:24

You're right Bonnie F. I'm British but not English and living in London. They've been a credit to England - played well, behaved well, no prima donnas and a charming and humble manager. They did very well and to get this far was a great achievement.

aldaniti · 11/07/2018 22:24

I do feel bad for all the disappointed kids though, bless them.

SeraphinaDombegh · 11/07/2018 22:24

Very sad, but very proud of our lads. Nobody expected them to get that far. They've all done a cracking job.

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 11/07/2018 22:24

Yes, I'm crying, and so is DD. 😭

sailorcherries · 11/07/2018 22:24

Sharron it's nothing to do with that. Some people can admire hard work and talent without becoming emotionally involved.

KenDoddsDadsDogIsDead · 11/07/2018 22:25

On to the next championship😁

Bicyclethief · 11/07/2018 22:25

We woz robbed

Iamtryingtobenicehere · 11/07/2018 22:26

Nt gutted. They got to the semi finals, they should all be very proud.

blueskypink · 11/07/2018 22:26

It's a shame - but I save feeling gutted for things that actually matter.

KlutzyDraconequus · 11/07/2018 22:26

I actually think it's a bit pathetic that there's grown adults crying and behaving like their puppy got ran over because a few blokes didn't kick a ball past some wood more times than some other blokes.

No doubt a small percentage of those same pathetic morons will be behaving like thuggish morons too.. but we have to dismiss shit behaviour cause it's footy innit?

Pootle40 · 11/07/2018 22:26

I still don't get how the tv channels broadcast across the whole of the uk and the England team keep getting referred to as the national team. That doesn't add up.

GorgonLondon · 11/07/2018 22:27

Sharron why would that not apply exactly as much to the Croatian team if they had lost?

ilovesooty · 11/07/2018 22:27

Disappointed but they've done themselves proud.
