Let’s start with some England team news. Nigel Spink is in goal, with a back four of Danny Thomas, Nathaniel Clyne, Russell Osman and Frank Lampard senior. Midfield is Mark Barham, Danny Drinkwater, Nick Pickering and John Gregory, and up front we have Peter Ward and Francis Jeffers. This England XI is comprised of fringe players who were capped against Australia. In four cases – Spink, Pickering, Ward and Jeffers – it was their only cap. England have played Australia seven times in international football, and all seven games have had the whiff of a ‘B’ international.
