Whining about the weather

England had spent the days after it defeated Paraguay, 1-0, in
Frankfurt, whining about the weather as only the English can. Who
else can complain about a pleasant, sunny summer day?

OK, it was a bit warm for running around for 90 minutes, but this
wasn't Jacksonville in July.

So, then on Thursday in warm, muggy Nuremberg against T&T, David
Beckham and Peter Crouch were amongst several England player to wear
long-sleaved jerseys. Perhaps it's true about mad dogs and Englishmen.
