**Official England Squad News**

[Acker79]

No, not the full names yet, not a joke thread either.

The Sun's live coverage is reporting Baines is out of the squad, and that his ommission indicates Warnock is going as cover fo A Cole.


Well, I guess newspaper reports aren't official news, but I figure we could turn this thread into the official squad announcement watch thread and try to keep it all in one place.

And No Darren Bent:

Darren Bent not going to WC - North Stand Chat

 

[Giraffe]

Good stuff, don't think Bent is up to it.

 

[sam86]

Ryan Sidebottom has been called up.

 

[Garage_Doors]

What time is it due to be announced ?

 

[Acker79]

I don't know if a time has been specified. At the moment it seems to be players are being told they're not making it and as each player is told their exclusion is leaking out.

"lunchtime" was muted by an FA Spokesman. So about 5pm then.

 

[Tricky Dicky]

I don't know if a time has been specified. At the moment it seems to be players are being told they're not making it and as each player is told their exclusion is leaking out.

Having your "exclusion leaked out" sounds like a painful medical procedure.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Bent isnt good enough, Im sure we will here from Bruce how we never play to his strengths, after seeing him play in a number of formation for Spurs I still dont know what they are.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

P.S

The **** more than likely moaned about it on Twitter thats why it was leaked.

News of the world saying Carrick is in

 

[Acker79]

Rumours are now starting to circulate that baines was left out due to homesickness.

I'd be surprised if the rumour about Warnock going in place of Baines is true as well.

 

[Acker79]

Walcott out. According to the sun.

 

[Trigger]

News of the world saying Carrick is in

Hopefully they are wrong, the most overated player out of the 30, rather have a cross between Carlton Palmer and Geoff Thomas in the squad!

 

[ben andrews' girlfriend]

Sky Sports news now saying that Walcott's out.

 

[The Wizard]

utter pisstake if walcott doesn't go

 

[Silent Bob]

Hopefully means Johnson and Cole are both in (and not SWP).

 

[Oscar]

Sky Sports news now saying that Walcott's out.

Good. Lennon looks far more productive.

 

[Acker79]

So it's reported that:

Out
Theo Walcott
Leighton Baines
Darren Bent
