Why is everybody having a go at the U-21s ?

Marvellous job. Half the stars missing to start with. And Bentley. And you can't say they screwed the penalties up after scoring 12 of the buggers. Taylor, well impressed with his penalty given the circumstances.

Jolly good show. I didn't think they'd make it into the semi-final

    - In fairness neither keeper stood much chance with the pens although the ref should not (Other Football) - lovely old job, Jun 21, 11:10:03
