VAR instigated a retake of my old retake of Billy Bragg’s “A New England”.



I wasn’t even born when we won the World Cup I’m fifty-nine soon and all hope I’d given up My wife asks me now ‘Why don’t you be a better fan?’ But all the players I loved at school already failed for Ing-erland

I loved you then, and I love you still I bet you’d beat Ghana, it ended nil-nil I don’t feel bad about letting you know I just feel bad about letting you go,,.

You know we might just win the World Cup If we play like a new Ing-erland And win in normal time

I loved the games in Italia ‘90 But that was thirty-six years ago! I can’t believe what I’ve seen since then Every time we go down to ten men…

I saw two shots on goal last night I looked at them, they were the only highlights Is it wrong to wish on the BBC? I wish, I wish, don’t go to penalties
