Rodney Marsh made his England debut in a 1–1 draw with Switzerland at Wembley in November 1971, coming on as a substitute for Francis Lee. He won a total of nine caps, scoring one goal, which came in a 3–0 victory over Wales.
It has been reported that the England manager Alf Ramsey told him: “I’ll be watching you for the first 45 minutes and if you don’t work harder I’ll pull you off at half time,” to which Marsh replied: “Crikey, Alf, at QPR all we get is an orange and a cup of tea.”

I had always wondered why he was so sluggish in the second half when he played for Man City.
And it cost us the Division 1 title.
Not sure how true, but this exchange has often been reported as a reason why he never had the glittering England career his talent deserved.
perhaps it was a sand-wich cake!

Desert/dessert - not a homophone, just simple misspelling (and general gormlessness).
I took my son out for his first drink yesterday. Bought him a Carlsberg, which he didn’t like, so I drank it. Then I bought him a Guinness, which he didn’t like, so I drank it. Next, I tried him with a pint of Adnam’s, which he didn’t like either, so I drank it. By the time we got to the scotch, I could hardly push the pram.

If a bear attacks you, pretend to be dead. That way, the bear will feel less guilty when it actually kills you.
