		<description><![CDATA[Roy Hodgson has named his England squad for Euro 2012 and there is a place for Wayne Rooney despite the striker being suspended for the first two matches against France and Sweden.

So, can Rooney still play a big part in the tournament? <a href="http://theballisround.co.uk/2012/05/24/what-impact-can-wayne-rooney-have-on-euro-2012/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=theballisround.co.uk&#038;blog=528034&#038;post=18009&#038;subd=stuartnoel&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Then there are other concerns about the choice of host nations. Football hooliganism may be a thing of the 1980s in other areas of Europe but there are worries that it could occur at the tournament.  Both countries have had their fair share of domestic problems in the last few years and the authorities are worried of a re-occurance during the tournament. If there are less England fans at the tournament then it may relieve a headache for the organisers as they are seem by many other nations fans as targets these days rather than instigators. <a href="http://theballisround.co.uk/2012/04/26/euro-2012-here-we-come/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=theballisround.co.uk&#038;blog=528034&#038;post=17692&#038;subd=stuartnoel&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On the morning of the game Pearce earned top brownie marks from most fans and members of the media alike by naming Scott Parker as captain (Trivia fact of the day - Parker is the only international footballer named after two characters in Thunderbirds.  An honour he will keep until Virgil Ti-Tin makes his debut for New Caledonia in a few years). Does anyone, apart from Andy Hudson have a bad word to say about Scott? A player who lives his life away from the front pages of the media, who rarely courts attention and can never be accused of giving less than 100%. Normally, when players make the move from West Ham to fierce rivals such as Chelsea, Man Utd or Spurs, the vitriol reserved for them by Hammers fans is spiteful to say the least. Not so Scott. I think most West Ham fans would have shook him by the hand and wished him luck if he popped into the Dog and Duck pre-match last night. <a href="http://theballisround.co.uk/2012/03/01/harrys-game/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=theballisround.co.uk&#038;blog=528034&#038;post=17145&#038;subd=stuartnoel&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

For England, it seems as though – unless it’s a storming win and a thrilling performance – nothing is every good enough. <a href="http://theballisround.co.uk/2011/11/30/club-v-country-debate-does-there-need-to-be-one/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=theballisround.co.uk&#038;blog=528034&#038;post=16281&#038;subd=stuartnoel&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
