As the national side prepared to take on Trinidad & Tobago this afternoon, one Hampshire mortgage company went football crazy and held a World Cup themed day to get behind the team.
More than 200 staff at TML Financial Solutions, based at Forum 3 in Whiteley, took part in an England Day, where many of them donned the colours of white and red.
The day was the brainchild of the social events team at TML, who ensure that the company gets behind the national team at every major sporting event.
Sally Winduss, director of human resources at TML, said: "We have a dress-down policy every Friday so we decided to make it a red and white day. It's a fun thing to do and because there is so much excitement about the World Cup, we thought a pre-event celebration would be a great way to kick off the tournament."
