Rizzle Kicks put the boot into John Terry at England dinner

Most of Roy Hodgson's England squad will attend a charity dinner on Sunday evening where the entertainment – hand-picked by the players – will include a band who mock former captain John Terry.
The Lions and Roses gala dinner at the Grove Hotel in Hertfordshire raises money for good causes and will also act as a send-off to Brazil.

The bands are the Kaiser Chiefs and a hip hop duo from Brighton, Rizzle Kicks, whose single 'Lost Generation' included the lyrics 'I was more confused than all John Terry's black friends'.
Terry was charged with using racist language in 2011 but despite being cleared in court he was found guilty by the FA for using abusive language that included 'a reference to the ethnic origin and/or colour and/or race of Ferdinand'.

He was banned for four games and fined £220,000.
Jordan Stephens of Rizzle Kicks said: 'We're massive football fans so it's a huge honour to perform in front of the England team.'
