Yet they don't seem to mention the first team to beat them in 1967.... Oh that would've been Scotland!
England's football hangs on something 41 years ago.
We don't bang on about '67 because we were then world champions as the first team to beat the World Cup Champions.
Were you alive then, I was, between 1966 & 1969 England for the only time in its History had the best team in the world. Think we were only beaten four times in those years. Yes Scotland beat us in 1967 with a certain Mr Law doing the biz. Dennis was amongst the best players in the world & one of the best ive personally ever seen. We harp on about that time because since then England has mainly been shite & thats a fact, todays team could not hold a candle to those boys & im so glad I saw them play.
