I've just realised: '42 years of hurt' doesn't fit as a line in your little song.
You'll have to leave off singing 'Football's Coming Home', at least until it's an even 50.
Tragic.:'(
By the way, I presume your continued enjoyment of the defeat is purely because England were not good enough to be in the quarter finals unlike all the other teams, and therefore their exit is good for the game which would have been so damaged by an England victory that anybody who has the good of the game at heart can't help but be overjoyed at the result.

Excuse the rest of the world while we rub it in a bit- maybe less of the old 'best team since 1966/1970' nonsense, or 'do Germany stand a chance when we meet them in the final' before the competition starts.

Time to reintroduce an old word to the OED, which was stricken the last time Engalnd won something, some centuries ago... 'humility'. Can you say that with me, children? 'hu-mil-it-y'. Well done.

I didn't hear what the papers were going on about which I'm thankful for but I don't think anybody I know was as confident as you feel we all were.
