It's not so long ago that Sven Goran Eriksson was parking his stack heels on Ulrika's landing, spending long hours of dictation with FA secretary Faria Alam and picking up multi-million pay rises just for sharing a herring with Peter Kenyon.And today?

A handful of Labour MPs turned up on the day after the Queen's speech. And most of them could scarcely be bothered to stand up and ask a question. Nobody believes in this thing. It's not worth the parchment it's written on. David Heath, for the Lib Dems, called it an abracadabra Queen's speech. "Shazam! The deficit halved at a stroke. Shazam! Poverty abolished around the world. This is fantasy...

There is never a bad time to play the Brazilians, even for an England team savaged by injuries There is never a bad time to play Brazil, even with a team weakened by injuries. Sir Alex Ferguson might dismiss this evening's friendly in Doha as a junket for the Football Association's blazers but for Fabio Capello and his England squad it is a priceless opportunity to acquaint themselves with what they...
