England’s sublime 29-18 victory over Wales on Sunday sent a Twickenham crowd home delighted, including many famous faces.


Prince Harry was in the stands, as were footballers Rio Ferdinand, Michael Carrick, Joey Barton and retired pro Robbie Savage.


Manchester United duo Ferdinand and Carrick took a ‘selfie’ with England stars Dylan Hartley and Owen Farrell, who were posing with the Triple Crown trophy.

Although possessing a poor record in recent times against Warren Gatland’s side, the hosts came flying out of the blocks.


Danny Care and Luther Burrell scored two first-half tries, and although the boot of Leigh Halfpenny was keeping the visitors in it, three penalties from Farrell sealed the game for Stuart Lancaster.


The England coach said: ‘We have got a big game next week. We’re in the (title) fight. We have a big game against Italy to come.’


Ferdinand had a weekend off from the football, while Carrick started in United’s 3-0 win over West Bromwich Albion on Saturday.








Delight: England kept their Six Nations title fight alive with the win at Twickenham

I never understood how the Windsors could support England to the detriment of all the other home countries. How can there be such blatant favoritism when they are supposed to represent everyone in the Union? Indeed, isn’t his father the Prince of Wales? No wonder the Scots still think they get a rough deal.

Unless you count the Charity shield, which is about on a par with the cup that the etihad franchise won recently (and at least I can remember the name of the Charity shield) and will probably be the only one this season..not great for a two billion investment!
