Looks like the pre game Allied bravado has gone oot the window

OK OK looks like I'm the one to say what I think everyone else is probably thinking. A good looking Englishman probably would be safe, so surfice to say you might be better bringing some sort of protective mask with you Adrian, preferably a full face one :wink: Sorry to be blunt but you did ask :lol...
