Roy Hodgson:

"Ashley Cole will start tomorrow and win his 100th cap..[but].. I don't think he has ever pushed himself forward during his 100 appearances as a potential captain. He is happy to be a key player in the team. I am pretty certain he won't be trying to rip the captain's armband off Steven tomorrow!"

Looking forward to tonight. I know Baz is going, is anyone else?

Anyone know what channel the France v Germany game is on? Or will it have to be an online stream job?

Not seen it listed on anything legal.

Very enjoyable evening last night. A good performance from England and promise for the future.

Her on the left of your panoramic looks OK

There were quite a few good lookers around where I sat which makes a change. I had a Brazilian woman sitting next to me who knew very little English. Ant and Dec were a few seats away and attracting a lot of attention. The view from my seat was great and I'm looking forward to being up there again.
