“We're all still disappointed that England didn't beat Croatia and qualify for EURO 2008. However, there's still a lot to be proud of in English football. We have the greatest domestic league, the best stadiums and definitely the best crowds of any country in the world. While England might not be playing this summer, we want the country to get behind The England Legends and prove to the rest of Europe that we can still enjoy our football whether we qualify for major tournaments or not. .â€
