So there you go, we qualify for Euro 2012, but as always with England nothing is straight forward. In fact you couldn't make it up - Rooneys dad suspect of a betting scam when a player gets sent off and son Wayne goes and does just that!

Of course Montenegro need 3 points to enable them to top the group but they also need something out of the game to prevent Switzerland from sneaking into second place. They play Switzerland in the last game - the score was Montenegro 1 Switzerland 0 when they met this time last year.
So for me Montenegro have the real dilemma, do we open up and go all out for the win or do we play safe try to get a point and make sure...
