Well as I said yesterday the warning signs were there, Croatia were not going to be the total push over as everyone expected, and in fact for them to score three goals at Wembley in front of a mainly English crowd should not be forgotten. They played well and even when England scored an equaliser, they still had the spirit and determination to come back and score and really wonderful winning goal.

Obviously this result has cost the manager Steve McClaren his job, a post that has barely lasted a year. So what now for England and English football? Clearly there is a need for a completely new set-up throughout the Football Association starting right at the top, they are not completely without blame, it is they who appointed the manager and coaching staff, so it should be they that also take the responsibility for this shambles.

It’s not just the losing of this game; it is the expense that the fans have put in following the team around Europe and for what? They were in one of the weaker groups and should have sailed through, anyway it’s over now and thanks goodness, we can get back to some real football this weekend, the premier league is back on!
