    I really do not understand this problem. England has a anti-social teenager problem and the richest football league in the world. Why are we not killing too birds with one stone and rolling out a national network of youth football clubs funded by the million upon millions generated by the premiership every year?

    It amuses me that people are flabbergasted the England team failed to qualify. After the World Cup, I figured they would continue to struggle, especially with McClaren in charge and the same batch of players.
