When asked which three guests he would have round for dinner, Southgate gave a considerate answer.“Nelson Mandela would be one. Unfortunately, we went to South Africa (for England in 2003 a match he scored in) and there was a photo opportunity arranged and I didnt go and that was taken as a snub years ago and that absolutely wasnt the case.“You would need some humour so, Eric Morecambe would have been on the list for that and for music, and Bono.”
