Cuppa Cabanga for Kamara
FOOTBALL pundit Chris Kamara is changing his name to Chris Cabanga after he learned that the word could have a positive effect on the England players during the World Cup.
More than 22,000 people joined an internet campaign to get the fan favourite to change his name by deed poll after scientists said the word cabanga, derived from the Zulu word for imagine, will unite the team when it is chanted by fans.
People who joined a Facebook group believe that if England fans adopt a chant it will boost morale within the squad and propel them to victory.
