I noticed this England flag earlier in the week – it’s on top of a massive scrap heap on the outskirts of Widnes. Anyone who saw England’s first two games might think there’s some sort of symbolism involved here but whoever went up there and planted is a braver man than me – I’ve posted a few pics so you can get an idea of how big it is. Wanted to get it posted before Sunday – come on England! And even if we don’t win, we can at least console ourselves we’re not Italian.
Or French.


Nicely seen Mark. It’s all set up rather nicely for a Battle Royale with the Germans now. Will Rooney be the hero or the villain?
