Football

Asked if the Prime Minister watched the game last night and what did he make of the result, the PMS replied that the Prime Minister did watch some of the match, although which particular sections she was not sure. He like everybody else though that last night’s result was very disappointing.

Asked if the Prime Minister secretly went to Wembley, as Steve McClaren was looking for somebody else to blame, the PMS replied that the statement on Pakistan revealed what the Prime Minister was doing last night.

Asked what the Prime Minister thought of the £2.5million pay-off for McLaren, the PMS replied that these were matters for the FA.

Asked what the Prime Minister thought of the opportunity next summer to have a home international tournament, the PMS replied that she had nothing to say on that at this stage.

Asked if the Prime Minister thought it was right that the man at the top should be sacked when things went disastrously wrong, the PMS replied that the Prime Minister thought that those were matters for the FA.

Asked if the Prime Minister though that rugby was a far better game than football, the PMS replied that she had no idea, but thought that this was the end of the Lobby briefing.
