Mate, I'm talking about the collapse this season and the collapse last. Both started at around the same time and both have continued into the end of the season.
I think the England thing has certainly had a role to play but its too simple to blame it on just that imo, especially when we did the exact same thing at the end of last season.
i know you are but if you are looking back at last season i think it's only fair to look back one more - as it adds weight to either way of looking at it. last season we had extra games which we did not the year before or this season - so that can be used as a reason as to why we fell away last season.
im not saying it's solely down to the England thing - but i think that it would be foolish to dismiss it's importance (more so for others than yourself) i think it's probably the over riding factor along with Redknapps alarmingly erratic team selections these past few weeks - which i think can be linked somewhat to the England thing.
yes we fell away last season but there were over factors which need to be taken in to account which makes a straight comparison between now and then unfair (IMO)
