Nearly two months ago, we looked into the possibility of Matt Jarvis being called up to the England squad [link].
Back then, it looked like an outside chance with competition being stiff on the wide berths. But eight games and a couple of good full-backs - Gary Neville, Micah Richards, Ashley Cole, Bacary Sagna just to name a few - left terrorised later, Jarvis finds himself in the provisional England squad, with the proper set to be announced tomorrow evening.
Ironically, should he make an appearance at Wembley next Wednesday against a rebuilding France, he could be facing Bacary Sagna for the second time in a week. And as well as that permutation happening, Gillingham will get a sum of money for the role they played in Jarvis' rise to international level and hats off to Paul Scally for putting that kind of faith in him.
Fellow Wolves fans, there's more reason to watch an England match with enthusiasm than watch another home nation flop.
