The 2014 panel

I had absolutely no memory of how England did in 2014 so googled - fucking hell

Hodge got the full backing to take England to euro2016 - that ended well as well.

Haha I knew they got a spanking off Suárez in the middle but in my mind the rest had become ‘did well against Italy, never really stood a chance of turning it round against Costa Rica’. I think it’s somehow got muddled up with our own 13/14 run-in.

In other news I’ve just had Abbey Road on, now to check out one of Ringo’s solo albums.

By the way, if you have no idea what the Kicky Kicky Kick Kick thing refers to, it's this piece of genius...

Christ that's awful, but weirdly brilliant. For some reason it reminds me a bit of Adam and Joe's Football Song, the one that went something like Ball, ball, ball, footy, footy, footy.

Love the Cavani/Suarez. If that isn’t an advert for real in a month’s time someone isn’t doing their job right.

I always enjoy his use of the phrase 'bell'. JUst works somehow when applied to modern football.

Ray K · « **Reply #307 on:** July 3, 2018, 02:33:39 pm »

Someone pointed out in the comments that in the 2nd panel he refers to 'Argentinian and Portuguese Sleeper Blokes'. This is a reference to the guys in the band Sleeper who were not Louise Wener, and so of no interest to anyone whatsoever. I hadn't heard that phrase before.

Mmmm, Louise Wener...
