Oh I hope so...for two reasons
1. The national press will stop harping on about nineteen bleedin sixty six!!
and
2. On the same basis of likelyhood, Emley band will lift next years Nationals Championship section trophy.
I'm a jock, and seeing as once again my boys won't be participating due to the lack of scots that can kick a ball, I'll be rooting for the English as much as anyone else, but somehow I just don't see them doing anything...again. Every other nation at that level looks like a well balanced team outfit...England always give the appearance of a few players slung together at the last minute (which they basically are), and I just can't see them getting past the quarters (if that!).
But I really hope they do.
So from a jock, COME ON ENGLAND!!
