wizbit Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 ..... first of all i DONT begrudge them winning as they were the best team IMO. But the press is gonna be all England this, England that for the next 4 years. As someone who doesnt live in England but is inflicted with the english media this is terrible - TV is gonna be unwatchable for weeks now. Plz dont flame this post as its just my opinion. Congrats to the English team on a dramatic final!! Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And i aint bitter. I dont mind living in the UK its just the media coverage that i cant aviod which i object to Al haha if that isn't being bitter then I dont know what is. I hate football + rugby, but it doesnt bother me that it might be on TV. I'm still glad we won, because I'm English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noddy765 Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 You cant blame the press for going mad. The poms havent won any sport of international merit for 20 - 30 years, so i dont blame them for going a little bonkers. It was a great match, its a pity that they won thats all :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redFX Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Congrats to England, you guys played some awsome ball. And grats to the Aussies for 2nd place. You guys are lucky to have good teams, I'm stuck cheering for the USA who lost to everyone but Japan. And that doesn't even count as a win since Japan hasn't won to anyone!

tomwarren Veteran Posted November 22, 2003 Veteran Share Posted November 22, 2003 I was down the pub @ 8AM, just got back. Was a quality game, Australia played crap, only points they got were from Englands stupid penalties, touching the floor in a ruck etc - stupid stuff.
