Hi Bren,

No, Nigel Reo Cocker pulled out with a back injury and Dean Ashton waited
until the FA cup final to be match fit and show his class. But the England
team does have 4 ex Hammers who all came through the youth ranks. Joe Cole
is the best of them, you must have seen his cracker against Sweden. I saw
Italy v Aus earlier today, was a shame as the Aussies have a breathe of
fresh air to the tournament.
I think we can forget the ashes, England cricket are pants at the moment.
Sri Lanka have torn us apart this month.

Up the Hammers
