    My boys have draped the English flag over a bedroom window ready for the next round of ritual humiliation.:) I'm not going to start watching because I don't want to end up caring when Wayne Rooney gets sent off for swearing at the ref.

    Major cynicism from ClaraLou there!

    Its all about the dream, the hype and the anticipation!
    Until they lose of course and the press go to town ripping the multi-millionaires to bits.
    If only the team cared as much as the fans.

    The constant drone of the damn things started to annoy me, so the volume went down. I hope not all the games will have so many of them - if its just the SA games, then I hope SA do a Scotland !!
