I'm watching Mally ! A good day for England and The Netherlands so i'm happy. It was nice for Saka to score twice lets hope people can now forget about that penalty. Don't worry Jimmy i can understand people not being interested in football. No i can't i'm lying !!

I just can't understand why people get so excited at 22 men chasing a ball around a field.

The trouble is Jim Lad i get more excited watching men play football than watching women ! I mentioned it to my Analyst and he said not to worry too much about it and it's probably caused by a past experience and possibly hypnosis may help ! :shock:

I watched Japan v Spain tonight, very controversial but Japan's defence I thought was brilliant :clap:

Is it disappointment or regret i'm feeling? Regret focuses primarily on the personal choices that contributed to the poor outcome while disappointment focuses on the outcome itself. It is in both cases psychological stress. Will the halycon days of 1966 ever return? Where's the next World Cup going to be held ? Saudi Arabia? Oh no thats where the Winter Olympics are going to be held. Three of my grandkids are half Marokken so "Come On Marokko !!!"
