England 5...

We've been missing the footie - so we were pleased that last night Carrow Road played host to the England U21 side warming up for the U21 European Championships which kick-off this weekend. It's been some time since some proper football has been played on the hallowed turd, sorry, turf.

Rather pleasingly, they stuffed a tricky-looking Slovakia side who were out to frustrate. And it's not often you see a number 5 following the word England. Even the full England team could only put three past lowly Estonia tonight - a side who've played seven, lost seven and scored none.

What was really amazing was the 20,000 crowd that turned up. 20,000. But then I guess when you live somewhere like Norwich and like your football you've got to take your chances when they come your way.
