I’m off to Wembley tonight to watch England against Switzerland. Like new manager, Fabio Capello, it is my first trip to the new stadium. Unlike Mr. Capello, I will be travelling on a National Express coach. It leaves Bath just before 3pm and arrives back in the middle of the night (I’m off work tomorrow!).
Having not been to the home of football before, I do not know what to expect; besides overpriced hot dogs and chicken nuggets. I have no idea where I am sitting or what the view will be like. I still haven’t ruled out a late call up by Capello.
Finally, I am aware there is a minutes silence for the anniversary of the Munich tragedy. Many “friends” have promised to call my mobile during this silence, If you are planning on doing this, and then watching my embarrassment live on BBC1, forget it – my phone will be turned off and as silent as the fans within the ground (well, maybe not the Liverpool ones).

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...
