He hasn't retired has he? Capello said he'd still consider him in two years, if he was still performing well. Lothar Matthaeus played at Euro 2000 when he was 39. Admittedly he was a bit shit.
If we still need Beckham in 2 years then we'd have to worry.
Can't we teach our other players to cross a ball or take a free kick?
6/1 when I 'invested' my £20 on an England winnning the whole thing !

Did you bet on them beating Algeria?
You'd only make about 6 quid profit.
As edited !
My mistake.
It wasn't a great bet though.
Not even each way

But I hope that you're half right Don.
I'd forgotten all about that 'expert' bit of punditry.
Just when I thought the evening couldn't get any worse ... >_<
Somebody got into the dressing room and verbally abused some players. 
Prince William and Prince Harry?

I didn't realize that hugging was such a big part of the sport.
Some guy on the radio thinks Capello should resign and let Beckham takeover.

That's funnier than the performance.
According to Wikipedia ( ) Cappelo is the most succesful England Manager of all time. Going on percentages of games won/lost/drawn.
