Let us not be too down about yesterday’s dismal result. Ok, ok half the team are on yellow cards, Leadknee King picked up a surprise injury and Jamie Carragher has the turning radius of an oil tanker. But I’ve had a delve about in the back of the footballing cupboard, and reminded myself of who Fabio should get on the next flight out to South Africa. Goorn my son!
A letter published in The Daily Mail
“Wouldn’t it be great if TV coverage of the World Cup was limited to England’s games, those of hosts South Africa and of the tournament’s ‘big guns’. Then we would be spared the ordeal of having to sit through a match between Bongo Bongoland and the Former Soviet Republic of Bulimia and other meaningless events.”
