Point being you're the one touting "honourable losses" now!
looks like Polands humiliation is affecting your thought process.....when did I say that those losses in Brazil were honourable???
I'm just comparing the quality of opposition...

Pretty poor taste to compare football with the horrors of war.

You are right, England did nothing at all to save Europe. We did not send the army, air force or the navy into war at all.
My grand parents did nothing at all.
What nationality are you?

@ Hawksey....don't be such a drama queen....youre not the only one to have suffered personal loss.....I still stand by the notion that the Russians, bad German planning and the Yanks played a more decisive role in liberating Europe.....that doesn't mean I don't acknowledge the role played by others...
anyway...back to the football....

Probably shouldn't try and take the piss about those roles then.

1. You could argue Toomer is in the same boat
2. I don't get offended with the war thing - seems the Poles know how to move on, unlike 95% of the rest of the world who can hold grudges for hundreds or thousands of years. :wink:
