champers Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 So England have qualified with 3 wins out of 3. I want to know if World Cup fever is building up back in England. Are the pubs chocca, are big screens being set up, are the tabloids rousing the rabble? Or do most people not give a monkeys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikmar Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 i dont know about back home, but I mentioned about Thailand's team to the girls in the office where I work as most of them follow the Thai national team (mens). It turns out that they dont care as "not handsome". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBKK Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 'fever'? is that from the 6,000 people in those huge stadiums? (Mostly staff and family) this is all spun by the pc MSM. Thailand fans numbered 60 according to BBC. I suggest very few people 'care'. What next? F1 women's teams? not against them playing if they enjoy it but all this 'equal pay' BS annoys me. If they want equal pay (tennis too) play the men! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champers Posted July 2, 2019 Author Share Posted July 2, 2019 If anyone is interested (seemingly not, judging by this thread) the England v USA semi-final is live on Thai terrestial tv, PPTV channel, at 2am tonight. I shall be watching and will be back in England when the final is played on Sunday. Hopefully, I will be able to gaugue interest first hand, if England make it. Sir Philip Neville anyone?

I'm slowly getting hooked, watched their last two games, very entertaining. David Beckham attended their last match, he seemed to enjoy the match. Will watch their tonights match tomorrow on catch-up. Good luck to the ladies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JHolmesJr Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Im rooting for England....after all their political BS posturing team USA need to get knocked out.

champers Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 Tough on England but the best team won. 2 penalties missed in consecutive games by England; chances don't get much better than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackjam Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 What a plonker that Phil Neville, copying Southgate with the waistcoat. Guess he will get his knighthood now with that semi final achievement, never known a country to celebrate failure like the English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
