So true....we were ecstatic when we beat them 5-1 in Munich in September 2001. But just 9 months later who was in the WCF......Germany.
Anyway, on a different matter I see the chavs are already out in force with their classy England flags clipped to anything they can on their cars
Sadly no longer just limited to white-van-man it seems

You are joking, right?
Say what you like about his style of play but, to quote The Daily Telegraph, "Since England won the World Cup in 1966, Crouch's goals per game ratio (0.55) has only been bettered by Gary Lineker and Jimmy Greaves ..."
Given that a forward's currency is goals that's a pretty convincing argument to me for his inclusion in the squad.
Have to agree with you about 'The Donkey' (Heskey) though.

A BA plane in the background - the thread is no longer OT ;-)

Sounds like your interest in football is the same as mine! 
The Brazilians usually have some hunks so I may just look in when they're playing. I'll miss Beckham too - those strong, muscular thighs ....... yummy!! And no Shrek doesn't do it for me either, what does Colleen see in him. Saw her at LGW recently and she's really pretty
Let me know if you see any legs worth looking at

Or that famous Mrs Merton question to Debbie McGee...
" So what first attracted you to the multi-millionaire magician Paul Daniels..."
You probably apply that to most of the WAGS.
Having said that Wayne and Colleen have been together since they were at school. Needless to say, she turned a blind eye, to his adventures with a mature staff member of a massage parlour in Liverpool.
