Puffing on cigars, feet up, smiling and relaxing with a few beers, you'd think this was a team celebrating a famous victory.
Instead, this is England's hapless footballers just hours after crashing out to Germany 4-1 in the nation's worst ever World Cup defeat.
The snap was taken by defender Ledley King on Sunday in the Hotel Marang in Rustenberg, where the England team was holed up.
Taken on his BlackBerry phone, it was apparently leaked by someone using a function which allows selected friends to share photos.
Sack them lot of them i say! Do they look even remotely bothered... nope. Shocking!

Its hardly the party of the century, two beers between nine sat around a coffee table. To be honest they look bemused. What are they supposed to do? Cry for next six months. Typical tabloid over sensationalizing to make a story out of nothing!

Talk about looking for someone to slaughter, aside from the idiot with the cigar looks like a funeral to me!
Whats the alternative? Everyone stay in the room till the flight home, half of them eg dawson had no say in how bad the team played!

If this was taken a couple of hours before the match, I could understand the anger. After the match: who cares?

It was in the Daily Mail, which also pointed out that when the players got back home one of them came off the plane with his earphones on, and then the next day Steven Gerard took his wife out for a leisurely lunch in Southport. Shocking. Only mass ritual suicide in Trafalgar Square would have been acceptable.

Thanks for this, it has lowered my interest in Englands international games to 0, and my expectations to 0.

Here here! They're a set of cunts and bunch of rags and I cant and won't support them. Weak willed losers and always will be. I actually found it funny watching them lose 4-1.

How could anybody possibly tell whether they look 'bothered'?

I'd get rid of the lot of them.
Although that wouldn't be anything to do with beer and cigars.

most of them played little or no part in the fiasco that was the world cup though
Cole and Johnson played well I thought - I'd be fuming if lampard, gerrard or fucking rooney was in that picture though

Cole had the audacity to smile whilst coming home off a plane after 3 weeks boot camp too. Outrageous.

It is a disgrace that an England International has a phone that takes such crap pics.

So this is the photo talk shite got a whole days broadcasting out of. Give it a rest ffs. Like someone earlier said, "are they supposed to cry for six months?". That wouldnt be long enough for it will still be in the papers.
Move on. Get a new, young, eager team that will play for their country. This lot didn't.
