	England Expects
		England, for whom the substitute Phil Neville injured a hamstring in the pre-match warm-up, will feel ill-starred, but the fates were the least of their trouble.
		England started with purpose, markedly at odds with the negativity of their final 15 minutes against Macedonia in last month, when they guarded a 1-0 lead with a lack of conviction.
		England's satisfaction was checked slightly by a difficulty in ensuring victory even if a weak attempt by Gerrard, on the occasion of his 50th cap, looked like finding the net until it was touched wide of the post.

	England expects that every man will do his duty - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Today "England expects…", as an abbreviated version of the phrase, is often adapted for use in the media, especially in relation to the expectations for the victory of English sporting teams.
		England Expects is the name of a BBC Scotland television drama filmed on the Samuda Estate, Isle of Dogs, the Robin Hood Estate, Poplar and other locations in London's East End.
		Her "England expects..." speech tried, and failed to convince the demonstrators to respect the sovereignty of Parliament and accept the legislation.

	England expects - smh.com.au
		Although England beat Sri Lanka 2-0 before drawing with India 1-1, Harmison was the only bowler to average below 32 runs a wicket in their Test summer, and he played only one match.
		England's batting stocks for the tour were severely depleted by the late withdrawal, due to family reasons, of Graham Thorpe, whose 45.74 average against Australia is comfortably the best of any contemporary Englishman.
		England have lifted since being ranked worst in the world in mid-1999, but not enough to inspire much hope of upsetting Australia.

		England will be seeking to improve on their fourth-place finish at the 2003 UEFA European Under-17 Championship as they kick off this year's campaign in Group 2 against Norway, Iceland and Armenia.
		England coach John Peacock is confident his side can progress to the final tournament in France in May as they prepare to play host to a mini-tournament in Sheffield and Doncaster between 24 and 28 March, but warns against underestimating the opposition.
		England finished second in a recent friendly tournament in the Algarve, remaining unbeaten, and Peacock is confident that his side – who reached the semi-finals of last year's finals only to lose on penalties to Portugal and then suffer a 1-0 defeat by Austria in the third/fourth-placed play-off – will make their class count.

	Bulletin - England expects (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		England’s problems are the same they’ve encountered since Allan Border’s team convincingly regained the Ashes in 1989; Australia is superior in batting, bowling and fielding and that’s without delving into the all-important aspect of mental strength.
		England has periods where they bowl well and those interludes will be greatly enhanced if Darren Gough fully recovers from his knee operation.
		Their progress on this tour is vital to England’s fortunes because, unless the prolific opening partnership of Hayden and Justin Langer is split early and on a regular basis, the chances of an upset victory will plummet like the mercury when the winter wind hits Calgary.

		Although it will be 33 days between the England squad for Germany being announced and their opening Group B game against Paraguay in Frankfurt - with friendlies against Hungary and Jamaica before that - it is clearly not ideal preparation and there are shades of David Beckham prior to the last World Cup.
		The FA are to ban agents from the England team hotel this summer in an effort to avoid the sort of disruption that marred several players efforts during Euro 2004.

	qwghlm.co.uk : England expects
		England may win their group, or be one of the best runners-up, but that will not satisfy the curiously strong sense of entitlement to success that the average England fan possesses.
		England didn’t play in a World Cup until the fourth tournament in 1950 (after falling out with FIFA back in the day, they missed out on the first three).
		Interestingly, I read an analysis of the England cricket success which attributed part of it to the fact that the players were practicing with the national team more often, and away from their county sides.

	Football \| England still expects
		Brown has played a canny game so far in reminding England they have lost the unpredictability of Paul Gascoigne, but he is surely only stating the obvious when he says any country would be glad of a centre-forward with Alan Shearer's goal-scoring record in international football.
		So England are favourites, and the Scots envy Keegan some of his players, but exactly the same circumstances applied for recent games against Bulgaria and Poland, and quite possibly Sweden as well.
		England would not now be slumming it in the play-offs had they made their paper reputation count in the group games, and, although Keegan's brief reign appears to be one long succession of last chances, there really will be no coming back if his collection of individuals cannot gel together in the next two matches.

	England expects grand finale - theage.com.au
		Led again by the inspirational Michael Vaughan, England was poised to score a consolation fifth Test win last night to deny Australia's hopes of recording only the second Ashes whitewash and the first in 80 years.
		England captain Nasser Hussain may have drawn criticism for delaying his declaration until a lead of 451 was reached at 4.59 pm yesterday, considering the dawdling way his batsmen went about building their lead, and that the highest winning fourth innings score here was 276, scored all of 105 years ago.
		Vaughan and Hussain had added 95 runs yesterday morning to take their partnership to 189 in 236 minutes - an English third wicket record at the SCG, eclipsing the one set on Thursday by Butcher and Hussain - before it was controversially broken on what became the last ball before lunch.

		England were drawn with the hosts, Italy; Spain, who had been beaten so memorably in Barcelona four months earlier; and Belgium, against whom England opened the competition on 12 June.
		England still played like an archetypal Greenwood team, building from the back, retaining possession, using space intelligently, waiting patiently for chances to come, but when they did they were not being taken.
		England spent the second half camped out in the Norwegian half as the hosts’ area bulged with players alternatively trying to force the ball into the goal, or away from it.

	England Expects: Ron Greenwood dies
		England Expects is an independent website providing comprehensive current and historic information about England's national team, the representatives of football's founding nation.
		England had previopusly failed to qualify for the 1974 and 1978 World Cup as well as the 1976 European Championship Finals and the reputation of the national team had been further sullied by the Revie affair, which formed the backdrop to Greenwood's arrival at Lancaster Gate.
		His arrival was probably too late to save England’s bid to qualify for the Argentina World Cup in 1978, but he steered England to the 1980 European Championships and, after a tortuous qualifying campaign, to the World Cup in Spain.

		In the current climate of toothless police dramas, pointless star vehicles and anodyne political correctness, I suppose the BBC could be considered brave for tackling the raw topic of racism and its relationship to politics.

		England Expects also highlighted the way in which the BNP has appropriated working class grievances which would previously have been the province of socialism.

		Manager Sven-Goran Eriksson, himself a Swede, drew heavily on Owen's pace and clinical finishing during qualifying and the 22-year-old will be expected to deliver now that he is back on the game's biggest stage.
		With 16 goals in 36 appearances for England, Owen has a proven strike record against the best defences in international football and scored a superb goal in 1998 against Argentina.
		However, Europe's Footballer of the Year cannot expect much space in the final third against a Sweden side that has built a reputation on defending deep and getting back quickly in numbers.

		Peter Crouch's latest role as England super hero, for starters, must be mind-numbing to those who recall the ridicule and lampooning which came Crouch's way when Graham Taylor, then the manager of Aston Villa for a second time, signed the beanpole striker from Portsmouth for £1m-plus five years ago.
		For England supporters the emergence of Crouch and the return to fitness of Michael Owen could not have been better timed, though neither player possesses Rooney's compendium of menace.

		Until England's midfield backs can start converting possession into regular scoring chances for the speed brigade out wide, then the wasteful world champions will always be vulnerable to teams who boast counter-attacking brilliance.
