    It is just before Scotland v England in the Euro’s Group game.
    Kane goes into the English changing room to find all his team mates looking a bit glum.
    "What's up?" he asks.
    "Well, we're having trouble getting motivated for this game. We know it's important but it's only Scotland. They're ***** and we can't be bothered".
    Kane looks at them and says "Well, I reckon I can beat these by myself, you lads go down the pub."
    So Kane goes out to play Scotland by himself and the rest of the English team go off for a few pints. After a few jars they wonder how the game is going, so they get the landlord to put the teletext on. A big cheer goes up as the screen reads "England 1 - Scotland 0 (Kane 10minutes)". He is beating Scotland all by himself!
    Anyway, a few more pints later and the game is forgotten until someone remembers "It must be full time now, let's see how he got on". They put the teletext on.
    "Result from the Stadium "England 1 (Kane 10 minutes) - Scotland 1"(Mcginn 89 minutes)".
    They can't believe it, he has single handedly got a draw against Scotland!!
    They rush back to the Stadium to congratulate him. They find him in the dressing room, still in his gear, sat with his head in his hands. He refuses to look at them.
    "I've let you down, I've let you down."
    "Don't be daft, you got a draw against Scotland , all by yourself. And they only scored at the very very end"
    "No, No, I have, I've let you down...
    I got sent off after 12 minutes"

    I'm guessing they've all been arrested given that singing is supposedly illegal?

    What about on the underground? Was speaking with a contact earlier who said the carriage they were on in the underground (jubilee line) was full of people, singing, none of whom were wearing masks.

    Funny how much Sturgeon goes on about not travelling so far among many other restrictions but didn't stop people travelling down. Rather hypocritical of her to allow it to happen. I don't get why they want to travel either. It's a bit sad to want to travel a few hundred miles to where a game is being played that you don't have a ticket for. I just don't see the point.

    I am sure she could get trains to London cancelled for a few days or sort it for some sort of proof you need to be on that train.
