England likely to be disqualified by FIFA

[tcm]

The England team risks disqualification if it appears we are trying to lose in tonight's game against sweden. I don't see a way out of this one. How on earth will England be able to explain that they were actually trying really hard?? Especially with Peter Crouch in the squad, who I understand is shortly going to be revealed as a painter/decorator who volunteered for a football-related reality tv show...

There's lots of precedent for not winning, shouldn't be a problem.

I think you have just hit on the perfect strategy for getting out of this thing with our dignity intact! Being disqualified by FIFA is a far more noble exit than being beaten by johnny foreigner. There's more to that Sven than meets the eye.
