This time yesterday things were looking so hopeful for the England national team. Wayne Rooney was on fire, Michael Owen set to play for the first time since 2005, a World Cup winning manager set to take over Sven’s reigns. Then it all went wrong.
Luiz Felipe Scolari last night shocked everyone by turning down the England job on national television. He blamed the British media, a factor which arguably has been the downfall of the English game on so many occasions – fucking tabloids.
Less than 24 hours after that blow the England wonderkid who is Wayne Rooney was stretcher off in the league game against Chelsea. As ‘Frank Lampard the Cockney’ would say “It’s all gone Pete Tong”.
We may as well just not bother turning up to the World Cup. Shit manager, crocked strikers, we don’t have a hope. It is just like a Monty Python sketch although if you tell any England fan to “Always look on the bright side of life” they will probably slap you.
It’s time for all of us to hope and prey that Mr. Rooney gets over his injury and can play in the World Cup. Can the club doctor please get him 20 CC’s of pies… STAT!

Women's football has come a long way in recent years. I think it is now fair to say that the International England Women's Team is now an equal to the International England Men's Team.
Both reaching the semi final of their respective World Cups.
Both getting beaten in aforementioned semi finals, after playing uncharacteristically badly.

A lot is being made of today's match between England and Cameroon in the Womens World Cup.
I watched the game. Cameroon were a disgusting team and displayed such extreme misbehaviour. I have never seen all these examples from one team in a single match...

It is nice to see the England Women football team doing well this year, just like their male counterparts 12 months ago.
To be fair to the Lionesses, they've been getting better and better over the last decade. Until last summer, England men had been pretty rubbish since 1996.
I'm not here to blog about the players....

England fell at the first hurdle in the Nations League tonight, losing 3-1 to Holland.
Roman was delighted. After all, he's a Netherland Dwarf rabbit.
How he mocked us...
Well, I know a certain little bunny who's sleeping in the garden tonight...
What do you think to that, Roman?
Who's laughing now?
Of course Roman wasn't put outside. Do you not...
