Re: World Cup
Portugal play at 6:00 so everywhere here will go berserk
When I go to watch England at 9:00 it will be strange atmosphere

) how many Scots were sporting Trinidad & Tobago shirts. So - not all Jocks, just most of them.

I wear whatever shirt is at clearance price.
I could be wearing a Scotland top quite soon.

Re: World Cup
FWIW, to me, women's football is irrelevant.
I want to hear from folk who have played in the men's world cup.
I'm sure they're lovely folk, but it's a different game

Re: World Cup
Jude Bellingham is still a diving bastard and sub Anthony Gordon. Apart from that what a good game. Hard one to call.

Re: World Cup
I'm watching but struggling to get excited. Pickford playing out from the back putting defenders under pressure, we simply ain't good enough for that. What's his name on right wing makes me sit up , but not much else. Think I'm just a grumpy fcuker. ☹

Re: World Cup
I speak to loads of footy fans. Nearly all are a bit miffed that the TV companies bring in a girl they've never heard of.weeksy wrote: Wed Jun 17, 2026 10:00 pmId love to be shocked by this but considering your general posting style, I'm not.
If you are watching a Liverpool game, do you want to hear from an ex Liverpool player, or a girl you've never heard of?
I'm all for equality, but sometimes it doesn't make sense.
