Thanks for that. Especially, for pointing out that our military victories were not simply about passionancommitment either.

It’s funny how probably a Heskey in goal would still be better than any David James or Robert Green around…

Right on. I think that attitude is prevalent in every part of English society. The majority of people would rather lose but remain the underdog. The ‘it’s the taking part not the winning’ attitude is pushed down your throat from cradle to grave. We are basically proud to be crap as long as we give our all. Funny you should mention Agincourt and the psyche. You ought to write a thesis on Carl Jung’s archetypes of the collective unconscious as proven by the unending shitness of the English football team.
