You don't need to be a rocket scientist to realise the importance of the world cup.You,you're team mates,Sven and the FA have all short changed the England supporters.This is not about now being more mature or any lame excuse.I'm not from England but as a football supporter this is pathetic.22 England supporters would have sacrificed everything to be in your shoes.In fact thousands did by working the backsides off just to get to Germany to support their country only to be shown disrespect with that 'circus'.Can you blame fans for booing England.If i or anyone with half a brain had been England manager this would have been a no-no.If i had the power i would go as far as saying to England players if they qualify for WC2010 you either play for free or you don't come at all.That would sort out a few egos and how much it means.Yeah Rio the England supporters were certainly Merced!!!!
