Oh, and no way should Sam or Curbs be England manager.

I caught a snatch of a bizarre story on the radio - Sir Geoff Hurst is going to release his own world cup song, sung to the Dad's Army tune:

Who do you think you're kidding Mister Klinnsman,
If you think that England's down,
etc

If true, brilliant! I bet more fans will be singing this than the official Embrace number.

Germany will win the World Cup, you just know it will happen.

Too true, Bagpuss.. Germany are the best in the world at leveraging maximum benefit from a relative mediocre team and home advantage. It will not be pretty.

Not a betting man but if I were I would put money on it

Nah, like I said they're our bitches now.

SG in "prophet" mode.

Maybe he can Persuade them to replace the team with foreign players too

For once, my ideal team does in fact include quite a few English players.
But as I've always said we're going to beat Germany 3-1 in the final.
Judging by recent results, Germany and Argentina are now our bitches and during the course of this World Cup I suspect we'll do Brazil as well.

very droll

[Bagpuss]

Better than Allardyce/Curbishley/McClaren. I'd have preferred Hiddink or O'Neill, but if Dein wants Scolari, I'll trust his judgement. After all, he appointed Wenger.

I hear Big Ron is looking for a job at the moment.

[sasguru]

Agreed. The ACM trio haven't really achieved that much.

!!!??? Good or bad?
