England WCB on Twitter
The Blog has actually had it’s own Twitter for a while, but until now it just informed you when there was a new article up.

Some of you (approximately 1,087) have already discovered our Twitter, but if you haven’t do go follow us. Go on, http://twitter.com/ENG_WorldCup. We promise to be at least moderately funny and only slightly offensive.

Joey Barton: Please Stop Laughing Now
Alright, that’s not what he said at all. Joey Barton, of Newcastle and brawl (both on and off the pitch) fame, has said that he is good enough for England. After I finished giggling quietly to myself, I actually considered what he was saying. Before we get any further though, I’ll ... [read more]
The Hankinson Index: The Capello Index, But Better
