sven its over for England

svenUndistinguished Karlskoga ex-player Sven Goran Eriksson can finally leave the England team manager role after England losing tonight to Portugal.
Tactics from £100k per week Svengori concluded England only needed one striker to score goals. It didn't seem to work.

Now Sven has always been somewhat controversial and there have been a few bad taste jokes about him through years. However, his agent Athole Still seems proud enough to support Sven who will have collected around £25m over the last few years. Here's his (ahem, alleged) video escape with the loot.
portugal/england
England played with spirit, and Portugal played with gamesmanship. After 90 minutes it was 0:0. Then another 30 minutes and still 0:0, so a penalty shootout. So another 4 year wait.

England's team will be at the airport tomorrow. I'm still wearing a three lions shirt, like half of England tonight.
