Half Time of extra time. England 1 Switzerland 0 The BBC pundits said. Can Southgate give the team some belief? Come on, this is the quarter finals of Euro 24. If you can't get motivated for this you can't get motivated for anything else. Trouble is, this is the most negative England team I've seen.

It looks like Macca is going for just a six figure fee.£700,000. Three strange decisions by Notts during the last week or so. If the fee is less than a £million, what is Notts up to, the talk was £2.7 million?

Oh no, so it looks like Macca is on his way out.

The England team to face Switzerland. Just one change to the team that faced Slovakia.

Are you all ready for the England match this afternoon? Can England win, should Southgate make changes to the line up, should he go 4-4-2 & go more direct? Fate has awarded England an easier draw to the final on paper. Can England take advantage? Those questions will be answered before the day is over.

I got a full night's sleep on election night. For two days before the election & on election day I didn't watch the news & logged out of my X account & muted notifications. I only put the news on & logged back in to X at 8 am on Friday when most of the results were known.
