28.6.14 England's World Cup Pepsi Challenge





The sad and sorry performances by the England team were matched by the awful input by so many others, led by Roy Hodgson - the most boring person known to mankind.  The complete embarrassment of losing the first two matches, ahead of the simply pathetic draw against Costa Rica in the third game was a damning outcome, and confirms a number of things.  There is the most definite delusion in thinking that England has a chance.  The overpaid stars are not worth their price tags.  The excuses offered afterwards never get any better.  Never is the word "disappointing" used so much when it is in fact wholly fucking inadequate.  Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard now need to go away.  Head & Shoulders sales will surely drop now.

In the 1970's, when England still had a vague chance of being taken seriously as in the running for something, after the 1966 success, it was a time to enjoy a Pepsi.




These days, there is little cause to view things with such generosity at all, and I can't help thinking that things have got worse in just about every respect. Perhaps a nod to Pepsi is appropriate, with use of this format for a new version. What do you think?
