Flicking through a freebie magazine I noticed everyone trying to jump on the World Cup bandwagon linking their crappy product with the World Cup.

I was drawn in particular to a John West Steam Pot Tuna infusion and how that is apparently "perfect for a half time refuel"

I can also see that to go with it, I can choose the 3 Lions Salad, which is now available.



Any more marketeers trying to jump on the bandwagon and trying to link their totally non football related product with the upcoming World Cup.

Men shave, men watch football - tenuous link? Perhaps.

Is that the limited edition football razor, as seen in cringe-inducing tv adverts?

Personally I think it's a glorious invention, now all my friends will know who I'm supporting when they come round to watch me shave.

"The official beer of the England team."

If they are always drinking it, maybe that's why we never win anything?
