One of the most discussed names in build-up to the England v Denmark game was of a player who never made it off the bench yesterday. Manchester United player Tom Cleverley's name was booed when it was read out before kick-off. It follows a petition which has been launched to have Cleverley banned from playing for his country. In opposition, a petition to remove the "Ban Tom Cleverley from the World Cup squad" petition has also been published. Rachel Burden speaks to Glenn McConnell about why he founded the original petition "Ban Tom Cleverley from the World Cup squad".
