lovely memories of 1982 in Spain at the time of the Falklands war .. we played France in the first round against a cauldron of Spanish hate, boos, whistles, pro Argentina chanting .. we won 3-1 and pissed the Spanish (and the French) right off .. titanic performance especially from skipper Bryan Robson who scored a memorable goal .. a repeat today would be just perfect ..
my mistake, Mick Mills and not Bryan Robson was the skipper
Mick Mills took my programme on the Stoke City coach after the “last” game at The Valley and got the team to sign it for me. Top bloke, especially given we’d just beaten them and he probably wanted to get away asap.
Great hit. France looking to accelerate things as soon as they have the ball. England have been toon cautious just looking to slow it down. Have to up the pace a bit now. Work to do.
