  • The fact I’m feeling a good era for the English national team is approaching as we have a WC in Russia and then Qatar and as I’ve now got/hope to have extra responsibilities, they’re no good for doing quick day trips in and out.

    All the tournaments over the last 12 years I’ve done when we’ve been total cack!!

    Think yourself lucky mate, most of my England away games/tournament were in the Taylor era
    Do I not like that!
    I fucking didn’t mate. Although we had some cracking trips (football aside)
    Was a good era to go I think mate - yeah, football aside

    Another one that's (literally) just occured to me is: people that 'run' past a monitor/screen/projector/TV etc but duck down....That's more distracting than just walking past normally you fucking dickface. A) you ain't as tall as you think, B ) you look like a prick and C) The 1.7 seconds I would have missed of the match has turned in to 10 seconds of me giving you my favourite hand signal, and 3 minutes of having to post on here

    B) schoolboy error
    No idea what you mean
    Doh...reading on my phone you had a smiley face instead of a b and a bracket (what happens when you do a b and a bracket (at least on my computer)) I'm not explaining this very well....
  • The BBC's annoying way of showing the score on screen during a tennis match. If you tune in during the 3rd set of five and it shows the score like this:

    2 5 Federer
    0 4 Murray

    You have no idea how the match has gone. It should be displayed, like the BBC used to and the on court scoreboard shows thus:

    7 7 5 Federer
    6 6 4 Murray

    No other TV company does this.

    Yeah irritates me too how you have to wait for the breaks every two games to get the indepth scores from previous sets
  • finding out via C5 that Barnsley council's housing policy restricts tenants to a maximum of........wait for it......

    yes.....thats FORTY ONE.

  • Although I’m massively pleased we’ve won our first 2 games in the WC, I’m now becoming inundated with stuff on Twitter about football coming home and a general assumption we’ve already won the thing.

    Crazy. I do detect more of a focus and team spirit this year and I think mentally we may have moved on from the failure of the team from 2006 -16, but my, some people are running away with themselves.

    I’m enjoying the two wins and up for Thursday, but let’s not go into hyperbole overdrive prior

    Same mate, people do realise that we beat Tunisia and Panama don't they?

    Those same people will go into the complete opposite meltdown if we fail to beat Belgium

    But its on Twitter?
  • To me it seems a lot of it is tongue in cheek and not people actually thinking we are going to win the thing.
  • Are people actually taking the 'Its Coming Home' stuff seriously?

    It's not just the it's coming home stuff mate. I think it was ITV who started talking about our approach to the Belgium game based on who we want in the QF. Seemed an odd thing to talk about bearing in mind we have a round of 16 tie first.

    I'm happy about how we've played and I see a number of positives, just can't believe how quickly the tide has turned.

    The media are a different breed though mate. They have to fill the air time chatting shite.

    Even the most confident of England fan will still have his feet firmly on the ground.

    I'm as confident as anyone can be that we're in the knockout phase.
    Beyond that I have no idea what will happen. This is England after all.

    True. And the worse thing about the media is that loose talk like that won’t help should we get knocked out next round.

  • The phrase ‘oh my days’ that seems to have become suddenly popular. My son is using it all the time (age 8) so much so I have had to tell him to cut it out.
