Apparently there's a World Cup or something coming up

Could I suggest a Forum fantasy mini-league?

Nice one Dan, thanks. Great idea. Yes, I'm up for it.

I've got a busy day today so forgive a lack of banter from me on the subject until at least tomorrow morning.

Who else?

You can sign up here.

Then click on "Friends League" and enter the PIN 4792.

I've entered my forum screen name as my team name, as my real name won't mean much to most of you. Sorry if you wanted to rack your brains for those pun-tastic team names. If most people really want to use made-up team names then say and I'll redo it.

I'll have a bash, M-Dan. Hope to sign up later this evening.

(later) . . . crumbs! It brings home the hard truth about our strioking deficiencies, huh?
Choose two from Owen, Crouch, Walcott and Rooney

This just released by the Driving Standards Agency:

In order to assist other motorists in identifying potentially dangerous drivers, it is now compulsory for anyone with a lower than average IQ and/ or driving ability to display a warning flag.

The flag (comprising of a red cross on a white background) will be attached to the top of at least one door of their vehicle. For drivers of exceptionally low ability, additional flags are required.

Just in from a customer - first come, first served:

Dear All,

As you may (or may not) know, I have been lucky enough to acquire 3 x tickets for the England v Paraguay game on the 10th June - however, due to a prior arrangement I am unable to attend.

Rather than sell them on e-bay, I thought I would give my friends the opportunity to purchase these from me - note no flights or accommodation included.

Let me know ASAP if anyone wants them. I'll take £100 each or £250 for the three. The seating positions are shown as attached.

Cheers

The pic is obviously a joke but are the tickets for real?

Have to presume not.

Shame.

Sadly as the bloke has red spikey hair and a broad Glaswegian accent it's safe to say it's a wind-up.
