Re: 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa
Pretty much as Steve said,
There's nothing more uncool than Nike so we're happy with our Umbro thanks. As the nation that invented cool we'll be judged by ourselves only on that one :lol:
Heskey is a much mailgned footballer but a local lad and i'd like to speak up in his defence. The man has the heart of a lion. If he goes to the world cup and plays, he'll do nothing more than chuck his100% in and anyone who plays against him ( i have friends who played against him before he was a pro) will have no doubt they've been in a game. Not the goalscorer the media constantly cry out for (nor is he supposed to be) and his touch is sometimes a little awry, "couldn't trap a bag of cement" as someone once said, but he's a difficult footballer to play against and often creates the space for the Rooneys and Defoes of this world to do their thing.
The stars? As the nation that invented the game (and all games that aren't shit), we reserve the right to have as many stars as we like on our badge. But, yes, you are quite right we did win the world cup in '66
If only people would let us forget it

I can't speak for the rest of the world but here, if (in company) you said your son had been granted a trial with a decent football team there would be back-slapping all round and good cheer. If you said your son had just won Wimbledon there would be an uncomfortable silence before you were asked to leave.
