And why is that?
Because you almost never get half as far as they do?[/QUOTE]Did Evita never reach Greece Helspanth?
If you need to know why I dislike them (and I'm talking about the football team and theur fans rather than the Nation as a whole) where should I start?
1966 Word Cup quarter finals. Argentina try ro kick us off the pitch, their captain Rattin is sent off.
Maradona's 'Hand of God' goal when he cheated to knock us out and boasted about it ever since
Simeoni's baiting of Beckham four years ago.
The reaction of the Argentinian players as the two coaches left the stadium in St Ettienne four years ago. The England players were with their wives and families. The Argentinians screamed at the English coach, ripping their shirts, banging on the coach windows and shouting abuse. Such a nice group.
That's why yeserday's victory was so satisfying.
