Remarkable Theo Walcott bet

Sadly it is has now vanished as quickly as it appeared - but last night Ladbrokes were offering 4/5 on Theo Walcott becoming the youngest ever England international.

Now given that he would simply have to step on to the pitch any time between now and the semi-finals to beat the record this was possibly the easiest all-but-double your money scheme I have ever seen.

Two full international warm-up games, three group games and possibly three more knockout fixtures: Walcott WILL play at some point.

Had Ladbrokes gone mad? have they been absolutely fleeced? I do hope so.
