In other news, England have shit rolemodels options for WC captain, although they all are super on the ball:
1. John "Tiger Woods" Terry
2. Steven "Bar Brawler and master simulator" Gerrard
3. Frank "suspected Tiger Wood" Lampard
4. Wayne "Foulmouth and master simulator" Rooney. I'll forgive him his prostitute indiscretions. He was "young and dumb", as he confessed.
Who do you think will lead them come June?

I'm fairly sure it's going to be Terry. All this stuff about his sex life is not actually relevant, it's all a load of balls talked up by the press.
It gives them a peg to hang the next few months of stories on - if Terry goes, and England don't win, we'll get "Short sighted Capello shouldn't have sacked him". If Terry stays and we don't win, we'll get "Terry brought down morale".
If Terry stays and we win, we'll get "England's shame, it never would have happend in '66".
If Terry goes and we win, we'll get "It would have been more convincing if Terry had played".
