I'm being a bit obtuse. I hope they lose, as I do the Jacks. Nothing more.

That said, if you think they haven't had the easiest run to the semi's , you are being one-eyed. Wishing them best is one thing but ignoring the obvious because they are "a decent bunch of lads" is silly.
I didn’t say they have had n easy run. On paper their half of the draw was the easier - anyone could see that, but that doesn’t take way from the fact that they’ve played quite well in my opinion. Good enough to beat 2 very competent teams

I was at the Euros and we only really played well in 2 games (Russia and Belgium) and we did have the easier side of the draw as well if you remember. If Joe Ralls was playing in centre midfield and Morrison at centre half would you want them to lose? I’m guessing so.
