There’s a few negative threads about football at the moment so let’s have a fun one.

Which England football player(s) would you go on a date with? I’ll go first- Jordan Henderson Wink

@MagicSummer

Never heard of any of these people.
I feel the same about 90% of the so-called 'celebs' I see in the various side-bars, on the ghastly 'reality' programmes etc., to each his/her own I suppose.

Wouldnt say no to southgate either tbh. Especially in a suit.

But why no waist-coats for this competition??!!

SkaterGrrrrl · 10/07/2021 17:32

Behind the scenes footage of the English football team.... Wink

@SkaterGrrrrl

I linked that video earlier.

Thanks for reminding me to watch it again.

We went out in the semis when he was wearing waistcoats so I'm glad he's got rid of them! Not superstitious at all, me

Apparently that's why Grealish has the short socks and small shinpads, it's a superstition.

@Snorkelface

None of them, which is a first for me, decided it was my age - and then I saw the Danish team and realised it wasn't.
Here too

Still too old but some good looking Danes

@StrawberryLipstickStateOfMind

And nothing to do with the fact that he cant get normal socks to go over those massive calves?

Lol @MrsGulDukat well he's claiming it's a superstition 😁

I accidentally typed 'Jack Grealish short shorts' rather than socks. Oh well. Not a bad mistake 😂

@StrawberryLipstickStateOfMind

I'm off to spend some time with google.

@the80sweregreat

Roy Keane looks a hard nut!
Oh yes, most definitely! He was once sent home from the World Cup when he was the captain of Ireland for a row with the manager.

@StrawberryLipstickStateOfMind

Now I'm convinced that that Jack is not a human but a perfectly constructed machine.

His legs.......🥰🥰

StrawberryLipstickStateOfMind · 10/07/2021 17:45

@MrsGulDukat there's some lovely pics. Of very short, tight white shorts.

SkaterGrrrrl · 10/07/2021 17:47

Sorry, MrsGulDukat - hadn't rtft.

MrsGulDukat · 10/07/2021 17:52

@SkaterGrrrrl

Dont apologise. It is worth a watch or two.

I love a man in a suit. Especially if that man is Jack Grealish.

LemonSherbetFancies · 10/07/2021 17:53

I'm in my fifties,they are all kids to me.

Bagelsandbrie · 10/07/2021 18:03

I find this thread so funny. Interesting how everyone seems to like someone different! There’s someone for everyone Grin

[quote MrsGulDukat]@awaywiththefae

Jurgen is looking very good in his age.[/quote]
He's always had a look of Barry Manilow about him, but these days I expect him to start belting out a fine rendition of Copacabana any time I see him punditing away on the BBC.

Bumpsadaisie · 10/07/2021 20:32

I think all the young lads are gorgeous but then feel slightly off about it given I'm old enough to be their mum...

MrsGulDukat · 10/07/2021 22:23

The friendship between Declan Rice and Mason Mount is so adorable.

It's so sweet that they are childhood friends.

Bryonyshcmyony · 10/07/2021 22:26

Maguire. He looks like a sexy Edwardian gardener

I'm embarrassingly older than all the players.

I'm also older than some of the managers.

Not that I can't appreciate the view. I just try not to think about it too much.

Grealish though? Not for me. Yes, I'm sure he's devastated.

Bryonyshcmyony · 10/07/2021 22:29

I think they are all gorgeous and I'm twice their age. Sterling has the most beautiful face.

Gareth Southgate

I love that description.

TruffleShuffles · 10/07/2021 22:38

I know every one has different tastes but Maguire? I really can’t see it, different strokes for different folks, eh? Talking of strokes, Jordan Henderson can do whatever he likes to me.
