The best jokes from England v Norway friendly

These are the best jokes from England v Norway, a distinctly underwhelming friendly victory for the hosts.

A Wayne Rooney penalty after Raheem Sterling was brought down in the area by a Scandinavian defender was enough to secure a 1-0 win despite the Norwegians threatening throughout and only two shots on target for the home side.

Even some terrible defensive mistakes could not prevent England from winning their first game since the World Cup – a dutifully uninspiring clash in front of the lowest ever crowd for an international match since the stadium reopened.

30,000 fans at Wembley for an international match is pathetic – I guess that's what you get for not selecting Noble @england.

Phew. Worried for a second at was a 7.45pm KO, but thankfully it is 8. Thus I shan't be forced to watch 15mins of England before Bake Off.

Don't worry if you miss the 'start of a brand new era' for England. There'll be another one two years from now.

England's defence tonight: Jones, Stones, Cahill and Baines. Midfield: Cuthbert, Dibble, Grub.

How about the FA give the cup final tickets to actual fans & see if their affiliates want to go to England games instead?

There are episodes of Teletubbies that I care more about than this England game.

Watching England on @eadt24's HD ready TV. Padlocked to the filing cabinet, such is its immense street value. pic.twitter.com/tDgPbBMnhR

England should buy a striker in this transfer window…

Why are England still allowed to play football??? On TV?? Pre watershed?? What if any kids were to see it??

Kids misbehaving? Punish them by making them stay up to watch the second half of the #England game as well @TwopTwips

The awkward moment when a baking show produces more excitement than an England match.

England fans that couldn't be arsed to attend a meaningless friendly should be forced to ring the parents of a dead soldier.

Next time England play overseas, we could cancel their passports. #kickball

Anonymous but scores a penalty – the England captaincy torch has been passed seamlessly

There's been more captains for England tonight than goals.

With some England players' form recently, they couldn't score in Rotherham if they were outside a kebab shop dressed as a 6 year old girl.
