Website teaches England fans to chant in German
A website teaching English football fans phrases such as "I puked my guts up" and "sack the manager" in German has been set up for the World Cup.It also includes translations for "sick as a parrot", "the ref doesn't know what he's doing" and "the goal scorer looked suspiciously offside".The British Embassy in Berlin, which is behind the move, has also appointed a special full-time "football attache".Andy Battson will answer queries during the World Cup tournament next year in Germany and give tips to travelling supporters.He said: "We share a love of good beer as well as football and the friendly historic rivalry between our two teams will add extra interest."Some 100,000 England fans are expected to travel to Germany this summer, a crowd second only to the locals.
