Just Who Is Supposed to Save the Queen?

BEDFORD ROAD: So England seems to be in mourning. The flags still hang limply from the council estates and little poles on Astra's but the fight has gone out of the country. Somewhat predictably they seem to have lost interest in the whole tournament. Which probably makes the whole thing kind of meaningless for them. I even wonder if they realise it goes longer than two and a half weeks.

We had a wicked barbecue on the weekend but Frank Lampard's pathetic penalty really put a dampner on the whole thing. And now poor Frank thinks the criticism is a little harsh. What I would say is: "You don't get paid £120,000 a week [not a typo] to play football, you get the money so idiots like me can put shit on you for whatever reason we decide."

Anyway I spent the rest of the weekend hanging out with the Norf London Massif, none of whom are England fans so were all happily free of the Blighty Blues.
