Nice one. Penance for having written: watch the England vs Slovakia friendly on footytube. Four goals, three centre forwards injured. The idea was to "warm up" the team for their next match. The soccer gods don't regret their creation, but they know their Shakespeare, "As flies to wanton boys," and all that.
