If you had it more than 2 weeks ago then you’re ok. You do need to show the proof on the NHS app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine if England had lost? Obviously not in the same league, but just after the match my brother (disclaimer, he's a bit of a c**t) posted a picture of a hand giving the middle finger with a red cross over it. Who was that too? Why wasn't he just celebrating the win rather than telling the world to fuck off? What is wrong with these people? (see above for answer) He's 51 for fuck's sake.

Every time there's any sort of set piece within 50 yards of the opposition goal, he comes out with some melodramatic nonsense ("I wonder, I wonder" "it couldn't be, could it" etc). Shameless attempts to try and get a memorable quote to raise his profile ala Tyldesley and "can Manchester united score, they always score".

It definitely sounds like he's reading from a script a lot of the time. It's dreadful to listen to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a busy weekend with family stuff, off on a canal boat day trip tomorrow. It’s quite a good thing, I don’t have time to get nervous 😂 The BBC have got a live countdown page going already - think it’s the first time I’ve ever seen that the day before an event!

I imagine it's torturous for those with tickets. Bet they wish the game was tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalifire Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 Here in Melbourne, hospitality venues are steadily realising what a cash cow it would be to open up overnight and sell tickets for entry. Every time they do, the entire allocation sells out in a matter of seconds. Kick off here is at 5am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said yesterday, I’m oddly not nervous about this match. Just hope our players are as relaxed (Pickford and Phillips especially had wobbles in the first half against Denmark. Hope they don’t let King Shithouse Chiellini get inside their heads). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestCountryGirl Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 I've re-painted my nails (white, with one St. George's Cross on each middle finger) as I have done for each knock-out match, so I'm set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
