I’m one of those sourpusses that is using the World Cup to take full advantage of the line free counters of KFC every time England plays. Last Saturday at 7:30pm Manchester Arndale went all Romero-esque with the only other life being bored shop staff and the occasional orange skinned hen party. It’s almost worth England staying in just for this unique experience alone.

Seeing as how my regular viewing of Eastenders has been disrupted for the next few weeks I thought it was about time for some Patriceici gold.

It’s fairly evident that football has it’s place and in this video you can plainly see that place in on Sensible Soccer in about 1993. Patriceici takes to the virtual decks to blend the Ambassadors Of Funk classic ‘Super Mario Land’ and that pretty tune off Zelda. Sitting pretty on top are lyrics that even the least coherant Engerland fan could pick up instantly and commit to an anthemic roar as their team slides slowly and quiety out of yet another competition.

For your visual pleasure you can watch football’s finest bloopers and sing along karaoke style whilst waving one of those flags with ‘England’ written on it (does every country do that or is it just us that needs reminding which flag is ours?).

Even if you hate it it’s still better than Chico!
