    It went a bit downhill after that, with Jordan winning 3-0 before complaining to anyone who'll listen that Frankie Boyle said mean things about their son a decade ago

    The Belgium preliminary squad's been announced, and it's one hell of an example of Good News/Bad News

    Good news: Meunier and Lukaku being in the squad mean, for the first tournament in the best part of a decade, Belgium have dedicated full backs on either flank
    Bad News: a lot of fans are calling for Martinez's head as he picked Fellaini and Januzaj but not Ycnàgnnisssz
    Really Bad News: seriously, don't stare at the picture for too long, or you'll get a splitting headache

    Though I'm sure that is treated as good news by the BBC commentating and presenting team. Anyone like to take a shot at how David Pleat would pronounce Ycnàgnnisssz? "Icagneyandlacey looks so good on the ball there...."

    I don't think it's only Pleat that would struggle with that one.

    I assume he hasn't watched much of Benteke this season.

    With both Lukaku and Batshuayi carrying ankle injuries, he might be watching more of him than he first thought...

    Who the **** designed that? Che Guevara?
    It looks like a cross between communist propaganda and a Spanish beer advert. Awful.

    Amazing to think there's no place for Nainggolan in that Belgium squad, especially as there's very questionable selections.

    It's easier to understand when you remember that Martinez is a bit ****.

    I'm more interested in the Twitter meltdown because Morata, Fabregas, Alonso, Herrera and Bellerin aren't in the Spain squad...

    It's quite funny that Chelsea's £60m marquee signing has been left out for a €5m Liverpool reject.

    After his baffling omission from Belgium's World Cup squad, Shub-Niggurath has announced his retirement from international football
