How come england are so sh!t at sport?

The joint is full of turds

Could be worse we could be Australian they are having a nightmare for the last few years so it's not all bad.

Nightmare...where, when , what

We're pretty good at several disciplines including, bow and arrows, pushbikes, Dinghies and pellet guns.

Nightmare...where, when , what

Olympics,cricket,rugby league,soccer etc etc....

Won at bowls, so now we need to add marbles to the list.

Top 8 nation football, motor sport, golf, rugby union, rugby league, cricket, athletics, boxing, swimming, horse racing, hockey pretty much every world sport.

No other country in the world can boast all that.

Pick on somebody like the Chinese or Indians.  They both represent a 1/4 each of the worlds population and do what exactly.

Thats the problem - they only run 8th

really...how can england be in Top 8 in the world in soccer ...is this because you feel england are in top 8 team

2010 world cup   (round 16)
2008 Euro cup    (not make it euro)
2006 world cup    (Q/F)
2004 Euro Cup     (Q/F)   (Top 8 at euros isn't top 8 in world)
2002 world cup    (Q/f)
2000 euro cup     (not get out of group)

maybe you mean that sometime england might make the top 8 ...but to say you are in the top 8 over the last 10 years is wrong....if you going on FiFa ranking, then Egypt is in the top 10 soccer teams in the world then

horse racing, hockey pretty much every world sport

Basketball...
Baseball...
Handball ...
water polo
softball
Volleyball
Handball
Ice Hockey

that just Olympic sports that england are zero at (not just not good but zero)

thats cos the convicts have lots of spare time on their hands !

Too busy moaning on forums and playing games like bog snorkelling - a sport that just about sums the English up

I feel sorry for the ozzies all they can do is moan about the Engli**** all they have left to do considering the dire recent record in sports they have.A bit more effort and less whingeing and they may do better.

:)   austarlia just killed you pommy at Comm Games ..

can't even spell your countries name,bout sums it up,lol

morons.  England alway

but you can, im sure you know the words to autralia national anthem to, after hear it so much

England always seeded in world cup soccer finals, if you consistently get to Qfinals of world cup soccer finals easily in top 6.  qfinals always have 2 or 3 sides where its the only time they reach that level. Egypt NEVER have got to Qfinal I dont understand the point. 

UK is top 10 Olympic nation isnt it so dont understand that point either.  Its no 1 motor sports, 2 in golf, these are huge sports, no way 8th in everything.

we know Australia is a great sporting nation.  unfortunately playing mostly the sports of its colonial masters, which gives it all their chip on shoulder attitude means not as many people in the world understand that as should.

Surprised you dont add Aussie Rules to that list of world sports nairda.  I'll except basketball...just.

Rugby League and Cricket are not world sports either like.

Personally I'd say there are only 3 true global sports though Football by a massive distance then Track Athletics and then Boxing.  Australia much worse than GB at all three.

it not in USA...it baseball, basketball, Football...USA is 35% world ...

I not talk about Aussie Rules, as it only played in australia and only 4 out 6  states in Australia play it...but really, you just don't understand how big Aussie Rules is in those 4 states.. it really the only sport that matters

I really think the world lucky soccer not the number 1 sport in Australia

basketball, would be 2nd biggest team sport in the world...

Usa is 35% of the world?  amazing.

0.3 billion out of 6 billion I make 5%.

Australia is awesome at sports we know that, but lose the pommie hatred, just makes Australia look small islanders with chip on shoulder.  Poms are good at sports.  Unfortunately those the Aussies play poms at are public school sports, played by a population half of New Zealand.  Brits do well enough in that context.

to be fair to the convicts they can't be good at maths as well,also theres no words for the tunes at the cwg,but if there was rolf harris or skippy would do it proud,lol

Between Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India the UK will be bankrupt..........

speekee english or is he the sort that stands on one leg and eats grubs.

Results speak for themselves
