Be nice to go five minutes without one of the teams I support being charged with something ?

whoops

?

The arrogance of this French team gets totally ignored and yet according to the Croatians every nation steps up a gear when they play England because we're so arrogant.
France will win this tournament and they won't even need to try.

They have a bit of a cheek - they got promoted having finished their season in 8th place 

I can understand why other clubs are laughing at us right now but they won't be laughing when they are next.
The EFL is supposed to be a democracy, where clubs have a say in their own futures. Instead it's more like mob justice that instigates witch-hunts against its own member clubs to purify the leagues. It's insane

I just don't know what the EFL are hoping to achieve. Is FFP still about protecting clubs from going bust or is it just a set of rules with no purpose?
Dragging this out is stopping us getting the takeover that we desperately need. This could make us go bust, so where does this even relate to "sustainability" anymore?

The business is extremely lean. There are debts, but we are a good prospect for a potential owner nonetheless. 
How many clubs have this little deadwood while simultaneously having a few sellable assets in our young players? Plus the owner is desperate to sell and the club is getting a worse press every single day.
Someone who knows their football and their business knows that we are a very good prospect. A low level Championship club fighting off relegation, with low wage costs but high quality Premier League facilities?
We have the platform to climb the table again, if we can very quickly put this mess behind us

This is the first time in my lifetime I'm looking at a major international football trophy and thinking "England really ought to be winning this". And not just that we have a chance but we really REALLY should be embarrassed with anything less than semi-finals. We've got one of the better sides and the nations that usually beat us - Spain, Portugal, Germany...are all going through poorer generations of players than they've known for a while.
France and Belgium are our biggest threats so would understand bowing out to one of those. We boast a squad in the top 3 in Europe in that respect. Whether we are the best, probably not, that's likely France. Belgium and England are close for 2nd and 3rd.
So we absolutely can win this, and we should be challenging ourselves to win this one. If we're not going to this tournament to win, we may as well not bother.
Winners: England
Runners Up: France
