Weather Awful, Transport Poor, Organisation Chaos – A Majorca w/e break needed

England v Denmark in Frankfurt

Back to Franfurt after 18 years and another new low watching a dreadful performance from England. Yes, we didn’t lose and we’re topping the group but the talent we have should be dominating games like these, not defending a 1-0 lead like underdogs and show no energy, no urgency, no passion and no commitment – very disappointing.

The fanzone, fans match, bars and restaurants were all a step up on the last game land transport quite a bit better (although all trains delayed as usual).

The weather is still appalling.

England v Serbia in Gelsenkirchen

Kane and Foden very poor – should have come off.

As soon as we ran at them there were exposed – but we let them play.

Bellingham outstanding, Sake and Rice good games too.

Need to improve massively and be much more positive.

Surprised at poor organisation for transport to and from ground – very unGerman! Schalke play there every other week with 62,000 – only 48k there yesterday. Some were left at the Arena Station for 3 hours after the game – it was chaos.

Euro 2024 – Germany

A lot nearer this time – but that means tickets and accommodation in short supply. At least you can always drive of nothing else works. Discounted train travel too!

A pre-tournament friendly in Newcastle was a first step on the road to Berlin….
