Hello everybody and a very warm welcome to Lions Watch, your destination for all that England chat. The Cub season is out of way. It's over. It's done. Forget about it. It never loved you anyway. I'm Luke Moore. And joining me today is my erstwhile friend and colleague, not erstwhile, current friend and colleague, Jim Campbell. No markers today. No. But we're going to slum it ourselves anyway and see how we go.

What do you reckon?

I think we'll soldier on without him.

I think we will.

I think we'll be absolutely fine.

Have you got the fever, Jim?

Is the fever there?

Is it present?

Is it in your blood?

Do I need to take your temperature?

Do you want some cowpole?

I would argue that the fever is now airborne within the kingdom. Do you want some England CalPol? I'd love some England CalPol. Why not?

Because you want to live in the fever.

Yeah.

You want to live in the fever.

I want to be at tip-top condition though.

So CalPol will be welcome.

Yeah, I think now the club season's finished,

it actually doesn't feel like it's finished, does it?

Because we know that our focus shifts so, so quickly onto the World Cup. We spoke on the Rumble about, on Rumble uncut today about the Merlin sticker books that you used to get when you were younger. And oddly, that has really, really got me in the mood. And I think that's characteristic of the World Cup, isn't it? It's a little detail that made you go, you know what? I cannot wait for this absolute jamboree. Here's something that will make you even more hot under the collar with England fever. The lads, they're flying out today. They are. They are. They are. Today. Yes. More on that later, we might do a question about, from one of our listeners. Because obviously, Lions Watch, we're doing it live here on YouTube, it does come out as a podcast

as well, of course,

but it's about you,
