Fabio Capello has delighted S & M fans everywhere today by putting the word "discipline" on everyone's lips.
He has pledged to bring a "group mentality" to the English team by setting clear behavioural expectations on and off the pitch.
'No-no's' include lateness in any circumstances, use of mobile phones other than in the bedroom when on England business, and late night drunken behaviour. WAGS will be banned when the team is on tour and blazers are to be worn. Oh and surnames will be used to address the players.
Capello, or as he prefers to be known, the Marquis de Soho Square, will be called "Boss" by the squad. It is reported that he has brought in specialist help to enforce his new regime.
According to the FA, there are currently no plans to allow the public to watch players who break the rules being disciplined, although they have pledged to keep the situation under review if there is sufficient interest. A spokesman said today:
"I can't imagine there would be an appetite for seeing handsome, finely honed, scantily clad sportsmen being humiliated and punished for misdemeanours. "
Really??!!
Anyway, enough of this. I'm off to explain to my lover that inspired by developments today, I have decided things are going to be a little different around here too from now on.

Well...there's a debate George. You heard it here first ok?......here's the thing......Capello = "don't do as i do.....do as i say"
Here's the list
Late for Press Conference today
Hasn't learnt English despite promises to do so.
And.....er....Tax
As for banning WAGS. I'm not sure at all. It could be thought of as sexist ? I know they are a bit of a chavvy bunch........but maybe its a class issue. If they were posh....he (maybe) would not have dared.
I think it will all come home to roost at about the quarter final stage of the World-Cup when suddenly it will be remembered little boys don't kick tennis balls in the streets anymore......but then...i'm a typical england fan.....as you said.
Capello does not have the power to change sociology.
