The 97 million men....

.
Our boys in white with their pails of golden loot,
England expects a playday to match and a cup to boot!

The Knowledge Blob:

The combined annual salaries of the 23-man England squad - £97million - is more than twice the combined salaries of all 650 MPs, including ministers!
Which probably explains why we won't win the World Cup (where's the hunger?) and why we get the MPs we deserve!
