the three people voluntarily choosing Glen Johnson...


stand in the corner, and await world cup doom....

felt like nobody would pick him because he's absolutely tez. if this moran costs me all the gold here I'll be furious. Although I suspect my answer to World in Motion will do that

[Newportlad]

I nearly put down John Emburey for this one.

Haha!
Good job no one noticed that my previous correct answer was only because if you looked really closely it says Italia on the badge.

7. The greatest World Cup song of all time is "World in Motion" by New Order (1990). Name someone who appeared on the track, vocally.


you could have had

any member of new order...no one put a member of new order

keith allen, who co-wrote it

kenneth wolstenholme the commentator

now i started off thinking only some of the squad sang on it

indeed the notes on the sleeve say Barnes, Beardsley, Gascoigne, Waddle, Steve McMahon and Des Walker as provide vocals, though the entire squad is seen miming to the refrain in the video

however the sleeve also credits the "squad" for chorus and refrain, so on that basis i had to allow those footballers not named above

so
