duckerDavies 0 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Yeah, England got to the final, but fell at the final hurdle. As for the football team, they're not even going to qualify for Euro 2008. And Lewis Hamilton has just blown a seemingly unassailable Championship lead to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. The one bright spark is the form of Arsenal FC, who don't have a single English player in the first team. The irony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6700 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Hmmmm - it's the norm for me... The football wasn't really a shock IMO, we'd have been stunned if we'd beaten the South Africans and as for Hamilton.... Well I had an inkling that one was going to go pear-shaped ever since the incident in China. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 21056 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Hamilton hasnt had a bad season for a Rookie though and I am sure he will go onto win multiple titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 How were the rugby team in '93? I know we were one nil down to San Marino in 8 seconds and missed out on the world cup while Damon Hill was getting shit on by Prost and Senna, so it's not as bad as all that.

He was hardly being shit on.... had he been allowed to overtake Prost in France (who he finished less than a second behind and was shitting all over), his engine not blown at Silverstone and a tyre blown out at Hockenheim (both times when leading comfortably late in the race), he'd have been World Champion in his own rookie season....
