Sad gutted bout the result Sad Whats the song playing as the BBC close their excellent coverage of an England game. ITV Sport are amatuers compared to the Beeb

Motson has been annoying from start to finish today. Tempting fate wishing for penaties all the way through extra time, reminding us that such and such a player has never missed etc. You could tell that Mark Lawrenson was getting annoyed with him occasionally

The BBC moving the news until after Doctor Who is indeed extraordinary, especially when you consider ITV still ran their news for the full length yesterday and pushed back Coronation Street

Aye, and as Alan Shearer commented, I wouldnt blame Wayne Rooney for clobbering him one on the Man Utd training pitch. The Portugal team is a very crafty outfit.

So England crash out on penalties yet again. As I knew they would.

I'm gutted. For not having a flutter on this outcome.

Oh aren't you clever.

It's off their new album - 'Fundamental'. The choice was quite good though, and the package was well put together.

I'm no football pundit, but it doesn't come as a surprise to me that England have crashed out (again).

I wonder what ITV would have had for their closing package music? Or would they not bother with making one and simply cut to more pundits commenting on the match or adverts?

"Crashed out", is that the most overused and annoying phrase at time's like this. According to Kaplinsky, Henman crashed out a few days ago, Murray will probably crash out in a few days as well.

I wouldn't be surprised if Darren Jordan opens the news with it in a moment

I get the feeling you're upset...

I don't support England, simple a that.
It's called RIVALRY!!!
