I fail to see why the England Football manager, Steve McClaren, has been sacked following the defeat last night against Croatia and the subsequent failure to qualify for Euro 2008. Understandably the manager should be able to control the team and to orchestrate a victory, but there's only so much a manager can do with a rubbish football team like the one that England has.

I would like to see most of the current players dropped and new, fresh, talent brought in as replacements. This might allow the team to play together better instead of only trying to only get the ball to one injured player. Sure, that injured player was able to pass the ball once which resulted in the equalising goal, but they still lost.

I won't deny that I am happy to see England dumped out of Euro 2008. They play like a bunch of sissies. Croatia played a much better game and were excellent from the beginning. England should watch how they play and take some tips on how to be a team.

It's Children In Need tonight, and in typical usual fashion, the Spice Girls have to mime their boring song which somehow got to be the official song. Why the hell can't they just sing live?! We all know that they suck at singing live, but it's CIN and they should do it anyway. I'm still not sure how they got to do the official song. The song is damn boring and makes me want to turn the tv/radio off whenever I hear it.

The best part so far has been the girls from Holby City. Lola (Sharon D Clarke) sang lead vocals for Respect and she has a lovely and very strong voice. I wonder if she has a singing background. The backing singers were Maddy (Nadine Lewington), Kyla (Rakie Ayola) and Maria (Phoebe Thomas). I love Maria's character (and the actress herself) so it was nice to see her scantily clad ;)
