I actually live in England and every couple of years I go through the same rigmarole. They get to a major championship and the Press and the BBC big them up. I actually start off a bit indifferent to how they will do. I have a lot of English friends and neighbours so I keep quiet so as not to upset people. But then my mood changes, the redtops start crowing about how good they are and then that jug-eared clown Lineker and that bald pillock Shearer get in on the act and I have to go into seclusion otherwise I will end up upsetting the whole neighbourhood. It soon ends in tears but until then I stay out of the pub and watch the games at home. I predict that those same newspapers and pundits will be calling for Southgate's head by the end of next week. Can't come quick enough.
