Great to hear I was born in 72 so missed out.Since I was born the closest we have got to glory was Italia 90 and we were so close I think the key must be getting that bit of luck England have seldom had I can still see Gazza sliding in and straining every sinew to get on the end of a cross.

And that's what comes of growing up in Hamburg Pete.  


It was my grandfather who was born in Germany mate,

He left Hannover when he was only 2 years old,

One good thing about having a little bit of Germany in the blood line is,

We have won more than one world cup.

The wife is half Danish so that evens it up a bit.

Hah hah! Never knew that. If your wife and grandad ever met they could have had a bit of a barney about the Schleswig-Holstein War  


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
