richmac Oct 2023 10:15pm, 27 Oct 2023 24,022 posts	0 richmac Not sure what to make of it personally NM. England were very erratic. And I can't even say it's because they had lots of young players on, although they did. But they also had lots of old stager's on. Just think perhaps the two gens didn't gel and the squad had as about as much enthusiasm as I did for this match. Argentina played well..

Cheeky’s Dad Oct 2023 11:34pm, 27 Oct 2023 3,839 posts	0 Cheeky’s Dad A more entertaining game than I expected tbh with just enough moments of quality to keep this neutral interested. Probably the right team won (just about) On the negative side, there was a really disappointing amount of appealing, complaining and amateur dramatics from both sides which gave proceedings the general air of two bald men fighting over a comb. “That” pass did look forward but the only angle ITV showed was from behind the play so difficult to judge. It was checked by the TMO so one has to assume there was a better angle that showed it was backwards. The attempt to speed things up by checking in the background doesn’t always help the spectators understand that the correct decision has been made (assuming that it was).
