The England gaffer was thinking \u201clay up or go for the green\u201d and \u201c6-iron or 7-iron\u201d as he ditched an important England game in favour of a day on the golf course! <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The nation\u2019s Under-19 squad was in France competing in their age group\u2019s European Championships, and given the paucity of the senior squad\u2019s recent showing in South Africa, football fans would be forgiven for thinking that Capello would be keen to check out the young talent that could be called upon to shake up his collection of flops. But no, the boss was on Spain\u2019s Costa del Sol, sunning himself at a luxury resort and finding time to have a couple of drinks.<\/p>\n<p>The future of English football went down 3-1 to Spain \u2013 is there anything the Spanish won\u2019t win in 2010? \u2013 but Capello was unfazed by that some 1,100 miles to the South.
