    If England win this world cup...

    \should we have a sweep to predict how many knighthoods, MBEs and OBEs are given to Southgate and his merry men?
    The team winning SPOTY is nailed on.

    I wonder if Piss Morgan will wade in if they have an open bus thing after going out in the semi's or final ??

    Was thinking about this myself, he'll be saying how well England did to get this far (assuming they don't go any further)

    Arise Sir Gareth. A few more honours will be dished out but the knighthoods for others will have to wait for a few more years.

    I've got to say, Southgate has done an incredible job mind.
    I'm sure he was watching us 2 years ago thinking "If we can cultivate the team spirit they have we'll have half a chance" and he probably also thought "If Germany, Spain, Brazil, Argentina, Italy and Holland are all shite we'll have even more of a chance!"

    Yup, timing is everything, and so far, it couldn't have worked out better. I think that this world cup has been pretty low on quality, there was nothing from Africa, usually Ivory Coast, Ghana and Cameroon produce some great players, then there's the cage rattlers like the USA or an underated Central American country. I can't believe how shit most teams have been, England shouldn't be anywhere near a semi final with this team and the way they play. Seems like International football is on the decline.

    We will never hear the end of it, especially next season as all those who never went to one game sing about it......

    I'm hoping England win it, I'm looking forward to celebrating with all the England supporters when they come to the CCS next season. Can you imagine it, all of us singing the praises of Southgate and his boys, and them thanking us for all the support we've given them during the tournament? I can't wait.

    The funny thing is that we probably have more English players in our first team than every other side in the league.

    I must say, although it pains me to admit it, Gareth Southgate does seem like a genuinely decent bloke. Makes it harder to hate the England team.

    Here's a question - at the start of last season, if someone guaranteed you Cardiff would be promoted BUT it meant England would win the World Cup, would you let our neighbours have their five minutes of fun in the sun?

    They've been going on about the last one for 5 decades. What makes you think this one would be any different.

    Definitely. Spare a thought for Welsh patriotic Swansea fans, how must they be feeling!

    Cardiff up, Swansea down, England potential world cup winners!!!!

    I reckon Southgate's already got an OBE in the bag for reaching the semis

    He will probably get the Nobel Prize, an Oscar, a full set of Panini stickers, a Blue Peter badge and a place in the next season of Love Island. There will be a new national holiday (The Gareth Southgate Day) on the Monday closest to the World Cup Final day. He will play himself in the Sky Atlantic dramatisation of England's race to the title. It will be amazing...... !

    Other than Saudi Arabia's first game and Panama against England, is there such a thing as an easy international game anymore?
    Tactics are more prevalent now than they've ever been, look at Russia Vs Spain for example.

    No, city promotion is not worth having another England world cup shoved down my throat for the rest of my life.

    Like asking would you take a tenner on the scratch cards for having your nob cut in half.
