\"Rebekah
\nJamie Vardy\u2019s nowhere to been seen on the TV, internet and the newspapers after he was omitted from the England team that scraped a 1-1 draw with Russia on Saturday.<\/p>\n

So he wasn\u2019t to blame for England again failing to win the opening match of the Euros – some pundits think he would have made a difference if Hodgson brought him on for final twenty minutes of the game.<\/p>\n

But the Vardy name was associated with the rescue of another common phenomenon of England\u2019s participation in the Euros; the WAGs, who first hit headlines during their stay in Baden Baden for the 2006 World Cup in Germany.<\/p>\n

Vardy\u2019s wife Rebekah, who he married in late May, has already more than made up for her husband\u2019s absence at the Euros. Snaps of Mrs Vardy sipping lager in Marseille were followed by yet more pictures (featured not only in the tabloids, but the BBC and Telegraph), featuring Vardy in perfect city-sleek attire, hair swept back, Michael Kors red tote in tow, and pashmina held to her nose after being tear gassed by French police.<\/p>\n

A string of Vardy\u2019s tweets, in which she described her eye-witness account of the weekend\u2019s violent events, accompanied the pictures.<\/p>\n

The class of 2006 WAGs were accused by some of distracting the team, and stealing the limelight with an endless succession of boutiques, bags and boozy nights out. Will history repeat itself in Marseille this year?<\/p>\n
