Thanks to a 1-0 victory over Austria and Holland beating the Czech Republic England have qualified for next years World Cup finals.

It wasn't pretty at Old Trafford, it certainly wasn't easy but England scraped through with a 1-0 victory. It was a game without passion, a game without belief, it was at times painful to watch. Sven was his normal animated self, he entertained us all when with a quick burst of enthusiasm he blew his nose, sadly his quick movements failed to inspire a dire England team.

So we have qualified, now we face Poland on Wednesday evening with nothing really to play for except pride, well that and the chance of top spot. I wonder what kind of team and tactics the animated Sven will use this time ? With many more performances like saturday's surely the bed hopping Swede's days are numbered!
