Feel it. Riiide it.
Euro 2024 is just days away, so we're throwing it back to the heady highs of summer 2021 and one of the greatest achievements in the history of English football, as Gareth Southgate's side became the first Three Lions team since 1966 to reach a major tournament final.
The opponents on that heady day were Denmark, who could so easily have felt their name was on the trophy after a horrific start, followed by an incredible turnaround.
Hold on tight and remind yourself - we can do it!

Baby we're ready to go!
The start of a classic Sven era two legged affair kicks off with an infamous Euro 2004 qualifier at the Stadium of Light as England take on Turkey.
This game marks the official launch of RooMania and maybe the start of the great David Beckham decline - but we've got bigger things to contend with today, such as Turkey's love affair with Blackburn and a lottt of fighting.

A sporting rivalry steeped in pettiness and bitterness finally crosses over to the Beautiful Game as England take on Australia in a 'bragging rights' friendly.
The game is notable for two key stories: the debut of one Wayne Rooney, and Sven's decision to announce ahead of time he would be making ELEVEN SUBSTITUTIONS AT HALF TIME.
We revisit the aftermath of the 2002 World Cup and England's plans for the future, as well as the footballing history of Australia. We also zip forward to the current day for a recap of England's recent friendly against Australia and Euro 2024 qualification against Italy.

And now, the end is near. The Rous Cup faces the final curtain.
The tournament born from the ashes of a century of Home Nations ties lasts less than half a decade, taking many strange turns along the way.
This episode looks at the final three years of Rous history and pontificates on the question: just what in the hell were England up to?
Not content with an annual slugfest against Scotland, the FA looks to South America to bring some glamour to the tournament in the hope of elongating this sorry mess.

The past meets the present in part three of our deep dive into Steve McClaren's tenure as England manager.
With the doors of new Wembley finally opening, Steve has the opportunity to take bold symbolic steps forward after a disappointing start to his time in the hot seat.
However, this was not meant to be. With friendlies against international heavyweights such as Brazil and Germany to think about, plus Euro 2008 qualification, our man decides to rummage around in the bargain bin of years gone by, calling on a HUGE variety of players to try and dig the Three Lions out of their hole.
Will this clash of eras be seen as a stroke of genius, or an ill-fated error that pushes McClaren towards the exit?
Find out on part three of The McClaren Odyssey.

It's not the best start really, but things can only get better.

We've tried to put it off for as long as possible, but any self respecting England podcast simply can't ignore one of the Three Lions' lowest ebbs.

PART 2 - Please listen to Episode 42 before this one!
Euro 2012 qualification continues for England, whose initial bright performances following the horrors of South Africa are starting to fade somewhat.
In this episode, Fabio Capello warns us that things will get worse before they get better as he continues to fiddle with the Three Lions formula in pursuit of something, anything, resembling a high quality national side.
Our two-part deep dive into the pit of despair culminates with an infamous qualification tie away in Montenegro, where a 'relaxed' Wayne Rooney grabs the headlines for all of the wrong reasons...
Can we crawl over the qualification line? Find out on Is This England?

Nick and Jordan are back to analyse the ups and downs and downs and downs of the England Team What Stole Our Youth.
The World Cup 2010 campaign in South Africa was by all accounts a complete disaster and while there were calls for England's very own Grumpy Italian Fabio Capello to face the chop, he survived and took the Three Lions forward into a new era.
It's a case of out with the old and in with the old who didn't quite make the cut previously.
This is a two part episode detailing every nook and cranny of England's turmoil post 2010 as the Three Lions march onwards towards Euro 2012, sort of.
Join us next week for the exciting and inevitable conclusion.
