    Yes, quite. Sven has named his 23-man Nigerian squad today and I have noted he has opted to not include any unknown 17-yearolds with fuck all experience.

    ....but there might be several middle aged players who aren't sure exactly how old they are (a common problem in some African countries) so they SAY they are 17 :)

        No Walcot - Wright-Phillips instead apparently, I find this a very strange decision. Brasil, Espana will be quaking in there boots

              Squad announcement at 3pm. The FA couldn't organise a piss-up in a brewery. My idea Get the whole squad to line up on the side of the pitch. Put a full packed kit bag in front of them (giving all players the hope that they are going) Tell the players to grab the bag and run to the bus. Seven of the bags contain bricks so they can't be lifted easily and those players don't make it to the bus - easy!

                As with everything with England it has ballsed up though. The seven not going has been widely known all day and the seven with bricks in their bags are Theo Walcott, Tom Huddlestone, Leighton Baines, Scott Parker, Michael Dawson, Adam Johnson and Darren Bent I think Adam Johnson will be the most missed.

                  The English FA were accurately summed up in Mike Bassett England Manager.

                      The best manager we have ever had, bring him back.....I'm secretly hoping to see Benson and Hedges in todays squad.... fingers crossed.

                        Probably trying to contact the last omitted player before the announcement. Trouble is they will be playing golf somewhere and will be out of touch (no mobiles on the course!). Or they are involved in an afternoon roast and have other things on their mind.

                              Trouble with that scenario is that John Terry wouldn't get on it - too busy helping someones wife 'move the furniture', lampard would aim for the bus but miss it and Rooney would still be trying to work out what he had to do :)
