ONE confident England fan isn't hedging his bets when it comes to England's chances in the World Cup 2018.

Malcolm Richardson of Kirkbymoorside flagged up his fully bedecked house and garden to us by tweeting these patriotic pictures.

A World Cup has been emblazoned on the hedge and 'England' mown into the lawn.

"It has already come home in Kirkbymoorside," he said.

It follows England's nail-biting penalty shootout win over Colombia last night during a gruelling two hours in Moscow.

The win puts Gareth Southgate's boys through to the quarter finals - they'll play Sweden on Saturday at 3pm.
