England's 23-man squad for the World Cup finals:
Goalkeepers: Joe Hart (Manchester City), David James (Portsmouth), Robert Green (West Ham).
Defenders: Jamie Carragher (Liverpool), Ashley Cole (Chelsea), Rio Ferdinand (Manchester United), Glen Johnson (Liverpool), Ledley King (Tottenham), John Terry (Chelsea), Matthew Upson (West Ham), Stephen Warnock (Aston Villa).
Midfielders: Gareth Barry (Manchester City), Michael Carrick (Manchester United), Joe Cole (Chelsea), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Frank Lampard (Chelsea), Aaron Lennon (Tottenham), James Milner (Aston Villa), Shaun Wright-Phillips (Manchester City).
Forwards: Peter Crouch (Tottenham), Jermain Defoe (Tottenham), Emile Heskey (Aston Villa), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United).
only mistake in all that was Heskey!
Still here somewhere........
Shocking that Heskey is in the squad. Barely Premier League quality, let alone England quality.
Would rather see Walcott in the squad than Lennon. Also, is a little too defensive for me, would rather see either King or Upson out for another striker.
Well...... Looks like I'm kicking off my world cup campaign in style !
Off to my nephews for englands opener, around 20 of us having a huuuuge braii ( that's a BBQ for us pohms)
Also... We're having a huuuuge SA flag flown in from a chilly jo'burg!
not my idea I hasten to add !
AAww bless !
I see SWP has brought his own pillow !
sweepstake at work today and i got brazil. come to daddy
Well..... That looks like Rio is out of the 1st game..... At least !
As if we didn't have a big enough gap in defence with him playing alongside a cripple !!
Sweepstake at work today.. I got Ivory Coast and Slovenia, hehe

You can choose whichever media you want to believe.. Tv, radio, interweb...... I prefere to believe my own reporter on the ground ....... My sister!
Up until now, the build up has been very low key in SA, football is a black sport whereas the whites only deal in rugby & cricket. But now the teams are arriving, the atmosphere is fantastic. & that coming from my sis who doesn't even know what a football is !!
she is across the road from the brazillion squad base, & the training ground is the local school. She has decked her car with both England & SA flags& reckons there isn't a car out there without a flag of some sort! Last week, there was nothing??
Yep..... Even Val is getting excited, & says the party atmosphere around town is like she has never seen before. I so wish I was there.
My parents and friends say that the country is "absolut voetbal befok!" ("absolutely football crazy") at the moment.
South Africa 1 - 0 Denmark
That means that South Africa are unbeaten in their past 11 matches. So far they are happily defying my somewhat dire predictions... Tournament has still got to kick off though but the form demonstrated so far seems promising.
Stevie G is now the England captain then ...
1999 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI Tommi Makinen Edition
Who should start in goal for England ??
I'm suggesting jamie theakston !!!
Socceraid 2010 .... 2 world class saves from sammi hypia & henrik larsson. & 4 penalty saves in the shoot out !!
