Players wrong on media boycott - Butcher
Former England captain Terry Butcher believes the England team were wrong to boycott the media following last night’s 2-1 win in Poland.
The players were angry at the coverage given to their surrender of a two-goal lead against Austria on Saturday and responded by refusing to talk to the press in Katowice.
But Butcher, who singled out captain David Beckham for criticism ahead of last night’s game, told BBC Radio 5 Live: “The players have had criticism but it’s to do with football and it’s merited and in the end it got a reaction from the players.
“If I was a player, I would have come out and said thank you very much for inspiring us to this win.”
