David Baddiel: England's World Cup song is "a bit rubbish"

Comedian David Baddiel says that England's World Cup anthem is "a bit rubbish".

David Baddiel has described this year's official World Cup song as "a bit rubbish", after it was revealed that Gary Barlow and Gary Lineker would record a cover of Take That hit 'Greatest Day'.

The comedian, who released 'Three Lions' along with Frank Skinner and the Lightning Seeds in 1996, told The Sun: "A cover of Greatest Day? That's a bit rubbish because it means they've given up, doesn't it?

"And is it just people called Gary doing it? Gary Barlow, Gary Lineker, what about Gary Neville? Is it called 'We're All Called Gary'?"

Embrace, New Order and Ant & Dec have all recorded previous England World Cup anthems.
