[nilesfunnies] With apologies to Scotland fans

With apologies to Scotland fans
Fast forward to 2010 - it is just before Scotland v England at the next
World Cup Group game. Rooney goes into the Englands changing room to
find all his teammates looking a bit glum.

"What's up?" he asks.
"Well, we're having trouble getting motivated for this game. We know
it's important but it's only Scotland. They're sh*te and we can't be
bothered".

Rooney looks at them and says "Well, I reckon I can beat these by
myself, you lads go down the pub."

So Rooney goes out to play Scotland by himself and the rest of the
English team go off for a few jars.

After a few pints they wonder how the game is going, so they get the
landlord to put the teletext on. A big cheer goes up as the screen reads
"England 1 - Scotland 0 (Rooney 10minutes)". He is beating Scotland all
by himself!

Anyway, a few more pints later and the game is forgotten until someone
remembers "It must be full time now, let's see how he got on". They put
the teletext on.

"Result from the Stadium "England 1 (Rooney 10 minutes) - Scotland 1
(Mcsh*te 89 minutes)".

They can't believe it, he has single handedly got a draw against
Scotland!! They rush back to the Stadium to congratulate him. They find
him in the dressing room, still in his gear, sat with his head in his
hands.

He refuses to look at them. "I've let you down, I've let you down."

"Don't be daft, you got a draw against Scotland, all by yourself. And
they only scored at the very, very end!"

"No, No, I have, I've let you down... I got sent off after 12 minutes"
