    I've got a soft spot for the Scotch, Welsh and Irish.
























    I mean it's a peat bog that I want the ****ers thrown in.


    But it's a soft spot nonetheless.

    Just watched the full game and even though Ireland was not the strongest of sides I thought Maguire's passing was really good. He seems to have got over his dip in form.

    In case anyone cares, England kick off against Iceland in a few minutes. Not that it means anything now, It's become a glorified friendly.

    Iceland are terrible
    No passion no intent.
    Games like this are a complete waste of time.

    Foden's a very gifted player, but I wish he would change his hairstyle.

    Their naming system is different to ours. If your last name is Ingvarsson, your dad’s first name was Ingvar. Or if you’re a girl, you’re Ingvarsdottir.

    I had a Japanese customer who bought fish from me, and he wanted to buy Icelandic Red fish, so I knew a supplier there and flew with him up to Iceland.

    On the plane, he asked who we were meeting and I told him Mr Gudmundsson. We arrived late a night so went straight to the hotel, in the morning I was told the Icelandic company would send someone to pick us up at the hotel. We were waiting in the lounge waiting for the driver, and he asked me again what the guy at the factories name was and I told him Gudmundsson.

    We arrived at the factory, and he greeted the guy by saying " I'm very pleased to meet you Mr Good morning Son" He just could grasp the correct pronunciation.

    Then you’re knackered and they feed you to the pilot whales.
