oh god if England wins the football, everyone will misremember this summer as "the good old days" ten years from now

we are at the birth of a nostalgia

think about it: a very unpopular government is unseated after fourteen years, and the football is won - instant ingredients for any twenty or thirtysomething idiot to misremember this in ten years time JUST BECAUSE YOU HAD HAIR AND YOUR PENIS COULD ERECT WITHOUT HELP IT DOESN'T MEAN THIS WAS GOOD!

Saving this

classic us

God, remember when you said that? That was a good time. Things were good. We should go back, everything is terrible now.

The start of something good?

No, this is a beginning of the whitewashing much like the 80s and 90s are completely misremembered

I haven't been watching but by all accounts England's playing some sort of dadaist joke anti football, and if they bring it home after playing a total of 40 seconds across the entire tournament, that will be something to remember for sure.

Part of the problem with English football culture is everything is always terrible or amazing. “Mostly okay,” or “Poor overall, but turned up at the right time” or “Fine” confuse pundit brain. As does having to generate in real time the narrative of something that doesn’t make sense until the end.

My lovely wife has already made the connection between the two, so I don’t think we will wait ten years.

To be fair, that will have been some of the good parts of their now present future past.

They've been really shite so it's quite possible

I'm worried that things might be that much worse in a decade that this really is the good old days

(obviously not the hair situation)

You are remarkably confident I will be able to remember that long ago 🙃

Tbh, I don't see them winning against Spain or France

I can see them winning against France, mainly because France can't score any goals.

In all seriousness I think Spain would eviscerate us. France haven’t been that great so you never know. But gotta get past the semis first!

England haven't exactly been great either, so maybe that's a match we deserve

But Micah Richards said we’re on the front foot so the plan is working!

We'll no doubt see

We need a catchy song to go with it to reach perfection.

You are not wrong

There’s a lot of pundits who have been calling for Southgate to be fired who are very much in URGENT CORRECTION mode.
