To be honest, almost to a man they played like a bunch of cunts.

Ashton to go.

A nice man, maybe even a clever coach, but he is no kind of leader.

Brian Moore pretty much summed it up... 40 seconds to go and 6 points down, and the no 10 kicks away possession... fucking idiotic.

Scotland did what they needed to, and they have the best kicker in the world - fair play to them. Once again England lack passion, lack intelligence, and turn into headless chickens under pressure.

From the RWC, when - out of pride and sheer bloody mindedness perhaps - they performed as a team we could believe in again, to this shamble of fucking muppets. We deserve the wooden spoon to be honest, fuck knows how this is the same team that beat France.

The dropping of Cipriani should be last pathetic publicity stunt of the deluded, senile, blithering old fool in charge of our team.

Ashton out, Johnno in.

I dont think some of those boys would be playing like that if they knew Martin Johnson was waiting for them in the dressing room. I'd rather Brian Moore was the head coach, at least he has some passion and fire and seems to actually care.

Didn't Johnson say he didnt want the job?

Either way, there's been no consistency lately, and it needs fixed.

Was too busy watching Liverpool drive another nail into King Kev's coffin and seeing Chelsea and United crash out of the FA Cup, but yeah, Ashton doesn't seem to have a clue - heard the game was dire too, so won't watch the replay.

Johnno is the man for the job.

If he had a real offer he would take it.

I'd like to see it, myself.

The RWC proves that on the right day the boys can pull the rabbit out of the hat.

Recently it's just been painful.

What a terrible match, I actually fell asleep in the middle of the kickabout.

That kneeing to the head was sickening to watch.
