World Cup Novelty Betting: Which English Player First To Escape To Beach?

After England's debacle on Sunday it is no surprise that bookmakers Paddy Power in their World Cup Novelty Betting are offering odds on which English player will be first to escape to a beach.  Whilst this book has been available since the first match of the tournament it is not by chance that it will close tomorrow.  As the downtrodden team is overwhelmed by paparazzi, forensic pundits and a nation of opinions, a flight  would seem very attractive.

South Africa has been one of the coolest venues for the World Cup to date, but none of Fabio Capello's squad have the excuse that they want to escape to warmer climes to relax. as Britain bathes in one of its hottest periods for two years.  Any exoduswill be motivated by humiliation and disappointment.

As the post mortem's continue and they will echo throughout the new season, the issue of how much players earn when they put on such uninspiring performances at National level will run and run.  Consequently wherever the boys choose to run to they better not be seen to be indulging in too much luxury.

Frank Lampard, John Terry and Steven Gerrard top the list at 3/1, 4/1, and 5/1 respectively.  Clearly Lampard's goal or rather disallowed goal places him top to want to avoid the endless goalline tehnology debates that willl roll and roll and John Terry, whose philandering earlier in the year signposted a messy start to the National campaign may also feel the pressure to answer questions about his press conference before the Germany match is too intense.  Gerrard will surely be so thoroughly depressed by his performance that he and Wayne Rooney will just want to return to the fold and lose themselves in scouser brotherhood.

Will English fans gain any comfort from winning on this punt?  It seems unlikely!
