The missus is watching this. She announced that she was going to watch the England games, like I have a say on what is on the telly. I would have watched them anyway.
I warned her of the pitfalls of following a football team.
Despite having never the played the game at a high level after a couple of games you will become an instant expert.
You will find yourself shouting at the TV and probably swearing a lot.
You will also find yourself watching games that don't involve your team because they will play the winners of a match. After watching the match you either think 'We should beat them' - this is wrong, very wrong or you will think 'We are going to get hammered' - more acceptable.
After a while you won't actually get much enjoyment out of watching. There will be the odd bit of skill and a few goals you will enjoy but most of the time you will be frustrated, scared or angry.
I warned her never to go to a live game. You could very well find yourself sat next to someone who thinks your favourite player is shit.
She is coming along nicely. Her most used phrase is 'Stop passing it back'
I hope England win the World Cup but my missus hasn't tasted defeat yet and it will be interesting to see how she reacts. Maybe she will understand why I am a miserable sod sometimes after Town matches.
I advised her not to start following Town. I don't think she could take it.

I think, like The Ashes, the Ozzies will probably win 2-2! 😉

No aerial at home (or internet) so never bothered. I usually go to parents', mates' or girlfriend's if there's something I desperately want to watch, although I usually just wait for DVD/BluRay

Fucking hate that keeping the flag down bollocks when it's CLEARLY offisde.
There was full daylight between Kerr and the defenders then.
Someone's gonna get tackled badly one of these days when play should have stopped.

Stanway had to go across the GK there, what a miss

Russo's turn to not go across the keeper.

We are doing ok, I can see Craig getting a bit nervous from here. It's only a matter of time before he's complaining about the rough English team deliberately targeting Kerr

So getting kicked in the face while jumping to head the ball isn't a yellow card 🤔

Russo's turn to not go across the keeper. I don't think that's quite as bad though, mate, in the first one there must have been 80% of the goal left open if she'd gone across the GK.

Bronze pulled up for taking too many yards at a throw just after an Aussie took a throw 10 yards in our half that'd gone out in theirs 🤔

Homey ref? Who da thunk it

This ref is shit. Any touch on an Aussie is a free kick, they can smack us and we get nowt. Then she has a word with Carter for a high boot after not saying anything to the Aussie that kicked Carter in the face
