Here we are again, happy as can be ...

It's a familiar feeling.

It's important to find a scapegoat - of course.

Personally, I blame all the scabby morons who turn on Beckham at times like this, as if Beckham didn't dedicate his life to being the best footballer he can be, and didn't play to the best of his ability on the day - which is better than the combined footballing ability of all those who criticise - but in fact did deliberately throw the game and did miss the penalty on purpose and didn't pass the ball as well as we know he can to because he hates England and is evil and deserves our wrath.

Yes, I blame all those tedious pricks for not getting off their collective arses and becoming better than Beckham so they could do better and lead the team to European cup victory.

Fortunately the wife and I are Italian, and we got over it DAYS ago!
