INT. CHANGING ROOM. DAY

FABIO CAPELLO IS HAVING AN ENGLISH LESSON WITH BECKS.

Becks
Try again Fabio.

Fabio (with heavy Italian accent)
It’s a game of two ‘alves.
We was robbed.
I Love Spicy girls
Ref is wunker.

Becks
A WANKER

Fabio
Awunker

Becks
That’ll do. We’ll be here all night uvverwise. What about the last one Fabio? The one all England managers must learn?

Fabio
Oh si. Oh no penalties again!

Becks
No no Fabio. The other one?

Fabio
Si. Go away Ulrika. I not want sloppy seconds.

Becks
I think that’ll do for today. Remember that Fabio, you’ll need to use that one soon.

THEY BEGIN TO WALK OFF
Fabio (to Becks)
Posh Spicy. she really like it up there innit?

I found this one a little crude. Would perhaps suit something like The Friday Night Project though.

you boys and your football.

Very good, short and sweet

Hi WJFK

I do like it, but it feels a bit rushed and could do with a couple of rewrites. Lacks the pizzazz of a polished script.

Structurally, I'd get rid of 'Spicy Girls' in the first bit as it detracts for the joke at the end (which is a good tag). Maybe go a bit more cliched 'Sick as Parrot' or have a go at Crouchy, which is always a good laugh for me anyway.

HTH
