England win, Matt's scalp loses

The Croats were leading 'early doors', as Big Ron would say (athough he also called Marcel Desailly "a fucking lazy thick nigger" so maybe we shouldn't repeat too many things he'd say). But England bounced back - including two Rooney goals - and the final score was 4-2 to England.

Roll on Portugal on Thursday, but if you've been reading this blog you'll also be aware that it's roll on the barber tomorrow for a grade 1 shaving all over. Oh well, at least I'd added Rooney to my pathetic Euro 2004 dream team before the match.
