Well, they see it now, but were probably too engrossed in counting the contents of the brown envelopes which had been stuffed into their @rse pockets, to notice it back then.

I can see a lot of nations pulling out of that one.

Maybe that way we can win it and Greg Dyke will be right after all.

San Marino have scored!! Their first goal in a competitive game since 2008!

They let in a goal a minute later though to go 2-1 down...

Wilshere is so useless its almost funny.

He has no muscle tone to hold players off, no right foot, can't pass more than 5 yards, can't shoot, can't win a header to save his life

I decided against watching live international football, and opted instead to watch the Great British Bake Off on the planner. After watching the last 10 mins of the football, I'm guessing that i made the right choice

Awful performance but i'll take the draw.

[Red Devil]

not a single Utd player in the Eng starting XI - that can't happen very often!

As over-rated as Steven Gerrard

Luxembourg beat N Ireland.

Their first competitive win in 41 years.

We and the Ukraine were pretty poor, but it was a good point. We must have given the ball away at least 100 times, which is something they fortunately did as well. Terrible game for the neutral, I would think.

Put simply, the performance again last night was so bad I would have handed Roy his P45 and told him to get lost.

4 draws in the easiest group England have ever had against terrible opposition. Ukraine lost all their best players to retirement, only that pacey winger lad looked any cop, we should have beaten this shower of shite 3 or 4 nil

[Aidan11]

I rarely bother watching England these days and it looks like nothing happened last night to make me sorry I missed it.

[GGAS]

England's rigid, cautious approach doesn't suit players like Wilshere.

Would that be Konoplianka, sussex? The left winger? He was the best player on the park I thought, Walker struggled up against him. This isn't the same Ukraine side that had Shevchenko, Husin, Rebrov, Tymoschuk etc.

Trappatoni has quit as ROI boss which was expected.
