Cahill out the Euro's. Martin Kelly has been called up,
what the fuck as Micah done wrong?

Micah said he didn't want to be in the standby squad

So I'd assume he wasn't asked again or even said no as he wasn't considered previously

Good news for Le Scot though. I hope that CARL is not planning to watch the Euros, I'll worry for his fitness next season if his heart and blood pressure doesn't get a rest in the summer

People keep saying he refused to make himself available for standby. I can understand him being frustrated but I think he's shot himself in the foot if it's true.

On the bright side, this implies that the gimp Jones will be fucling up our central defence rather than fucling up our right side for us.

So if England don't win the Euros, we can assume it will be Lescott's fault now.

As has been mentioned, he may want to keep himself in contention for the Olympics. I think Pearce would take a punt on him as one of the overage players.

Would much rather have a chance to get an Olympic medal on home soil than crash out of a tournament in eastern europe

Mancini wants someone new to line up with Kompany - Lescott will be second choice next season...you heard it here first.

As for the Euros - I am simply not bothered..the team is fuckign wank and so is the manager.
I hope France beats us 3 nil with Nasri and Clichy on the score sheet.

That or Jagielka. Terry and Lescott are both left sided so I cant see then playing together.

Would he even be overaged player? Micah is just about to turn 24 and if my memory serves me, the date isn't "first day of the tournament" but rather something like "all players born 1988 or later". I'm not 100% sure about that at all but that's how I seem to remember it.

There is no chance he would be an over age player (if he's in that bracket). We already know Bellamy is one, Beckham is a definite, and one place to Giggs or Lampard?

He's born in the year before the deadline. I checked it out the other day. Misses it by about 5 months, I seem to recall.

How do we know that? Beckham's been on his publicity machine to get his place, but I haven't heard anything about Bellamy...

Cheers for that.

Don't think England managers worry about stuff like that, they just keep on and on stuffing square pegs into round holes until they get replaced with another one.

Lescott is going to end up being the scapegoat for John Terry.

It was in the news at weekend Bellamy let the cat out of the bag on Twitter or somewhere?

Bellamy seems a daft choice he finds it hard to play every week never mind every few days

Mind you, so does Beckham imho. He's got nowhere near the marketing attractiveness he did 3 years or so ago, and isn't one of the top 3 British players over the age of 23 not to be at the Euros this summer.
