I'm keeping my fingers crossed but England coach Steve McClaren remains positive, despite the 0-0 draw against Israel in Tel Aviv on Saturday, leaving England in danger of failing to qualify for the tournament.
He doesn't see any undoing to be made for Saturday's match, apart from "sticking goals to the back of the net", and will be keeping the basic team for tomorrow's game (Andora).
"You've got to have great faith and belief in your players and I do, that's what the job is. blah, blah, blah....."
Okay, we heard you McClaren. Just show us the results!!!
Some England football fans are speculating a change of coach is what the team needs, based on the lack of goals during McClaren's regime, except for one in the last five games and none in competitive football since Euro 2004. Many England fans are also not buying tickets for the finals until tomorrow's game.
I've never been so geared up for a football team, and will be keeping a close eye on tomorrow's game. It'll be a pity if England doesn't make it. (There're some pretty cute players there....)

Ha, it'll be hard for them to make it without Becks.
of course by this wabbit means EASIER and not hard.
it's very simple:
1. stop being a bunch of idiots, realise that you're overrated and overhyped and that the english press is utterly useless
2. once the reality check has set in, figure out what football is about, and since you're not brazil actually select a proper team and try using tactics and a decent formation for once.
3. drop lampard.
