“Good afternoon. This is IsAC’s football correspondent Ron Knee reporting from the Euros after England’s 2-1 win over Slovakia. I’m now joined by manager Gareth Southgate to discuss the team’s progress so far. I think it’s fair to say that after lurching through the group stages like Joe Biden on Mogadon, it’s been squeaky bum time again here today against a side some forty places below England in the FIFA rankings. In short, we’ve been pretty dismal so far. Gareth, your reaction”
“Well I must say that you’re being completely unfair to both the team and myself. There aren’t any easy games in world football anymore. Our opponents have all been brilliant so far, and we’ve had to be that little bit more brilliant. Slovakia is always a hard place to get a result. I’m proud of my players”
“Erm, we’re in Germany… and well come on; ‘brilliant’ did you say?”
“Yes, it’s always hard here as well, but I say again, we were brilliant today. Look, we executed our game plan to perfection once more. Stifle and nullify to opposition. Lull them into a false sense of security, then strike twice like a viper. Game over”
“Well I’ll grant you, we’re still in the tournament, but honestly, we’re lucky to have survived so far, and you’ve elevated scuffling into an art form. I feel for the fans, who’ve forked out a fortune to come and watch these dire, boring performances. What have you got to say to them?”
“Our fans have been brilliant, and I’m proud of them. Okay, they’ve been cursing and swearing and throwing beer at me, but that’s all in the heat of the moment. On reflection, I’m sure they’ll agree that everything’s been brilliant so far”
“So what are your plans for the next game? Any player changes or tactical adjustments lined up?”
“Oh I can’t think that far ahead. At the moment, I’ve got a lap of honour of the dressing room to organise, then I’ve got some career options to consider. Word is that Yanited might be looking for a new manager and I’d be the perfect fit. Brilliant, you might say. Got to go. Ciao”
“Er well thanks for that Gareth. This is Ron Knee, for IsAC, returning you to the studio”

Pundits at the Euros
For goodness sakes, can they not find someone that speaks some form of English ?
Some Scottish cunt and a couple of bimbos talking broken biscuits. That’s what we get at the Euros. I didn’t catch a word of their ramblings. Christ on a bike, am I alone in my disbelief?
I give up !
