Where Do We Go From Here?

It's official. The day before yesterday we officially missed out on World Cup 2010, making it the first big (biggest might be more appropriate) stage absence in our short but memorable footballing résumé (not counting Euro 2000 here). And as questions of why and how start knocking on (allegedly) responsible doors, I've decided to focus on some things that might give a more clear answer on what now and where do we go from here.
