You can tell it’s a no-news week as our fantastic Premier League calendar is once again interrupted by internationals, and we all sit chewing our nails in the hope that none of our esteemed quality footballers return home lame.
I caught a conversation on TalkRubbish this morning where Paul Stretford, the agent of Wayne Rooney, told us that the FA had agreed to send coaches to US of A to help England’s golden son gain his coaching badges.
There was no mention as to whether the said ex-FC United of Stretford player was contributing to this himself, so one suspects that the FA are coughing up and several people involved at St George’s Park are off to the States on several jollies!
