The town is awash with red shirts as footy fans celebrate England’s victory in the World Cup.
However, it’s slightly less busy in some parts - especially in Brook Street recruitment agency which is displaying a sign saying that due to ‘unforeseen circumstances the branch is closed this afternoon’.
Maybe that’s where the team went wrong.

Mmmm. I wonder what those could be? Did they have an important date with a certain Mr Capello?
The roads are fairly quiet too, but somebody spots a Slovenian lorry with a confusing message on the back.
Maybe that’s where the team went wrong.
