The newspapers will make sure everbody "loves the idea" .It's not just Southgate either, it's the players as well. They're currently in the middle of a Premier League season and now the FA are expecting them to play in a glorified testimonial for a player who achieved the square root of fuck all in his time as an England player, openly treated the fans with contempt, and took the piss towards the end by getting plastered while on international duty. They should be telling the FA to fuck off too. The whole thing is a sham.
It's a match for the once a year Tarquins & Cressidas from the home counties to take their offspring to, any self-respecting football fan will steer well clear of it.
