Well the 2010 World Cup is fast approaching, and next week promotion/marketing of the event which will take place in South Africa will go in to full effect. Check out the brand new England 2010 World Cup commercial from Carlsberg, featuring various sporting greats from the past. I would love for England to bring home the World Cup but when I look at the England squad, I just don’t see it happening.
