No Netherlands and no Italy

We left that world cup without getting losing a game.

New Zealand did that too not long ago.

India did it in 1950.

Australia did it under Venables albeit in the qualifying stages - undefeated but still missed out.

If you dont think Englands performances at major tournaments for the last 50 years have been anything less than embarrassing then you are delusional. But being an England supporter, that comes with the territory.

1990 - lost semi final on penalties .
Just one of a number of near misses.
Doesn't sound embarrassing to me.

Must be easy to be successful when you just change the team you are going for each week. Some of us are loyal.to our club/national side.

Major difference between embarrassing and being pleased. Eg. I am not pleased unless we win but losing in a penalty shoot out in the semis to the winner isn't embarrassing.

However, seeing as you claim to be "aussie", have they ever had a non embarrassing world cup?
