England v Belgium final.

I’ll fucking take that!

Cmon boys.

Last World Cup me & my mates did a sweepstake.

They did the draw (I was at an Arcade Fire gig with my mum, obv) and a got Argentina & Germany.

Would happily take another ‘no lose’ final.

Dear Lawro.
Stats…

It’s been a good run nevertheless :sunglasses:

Benny from ABBA, Britt Ekland. Bjorn Borg, Swedish Chef bloke from The Muppets. Ingmar Bergman, and Ingrid. Other Swedish people I’m too dumb to remember.

But by cripes you’ll feel the full force of England on Saturday!! A polite force, and one willing to queue up

Closed the poll because clearly Lawro is an idiot

Can we do one on Hoddle next?

Probably fair to put that quote next to the article in question, prompting the letter signed by numerous MPs

A certain Piers Morgan was editor at the time. Wonder what happened to him?
