June 5, 20187 yr https://www.theguardian.com/football/ng-int...ings-goals-caps This is some impressive work from The Guardian in providing a lowdown on every single player in the World Cup, I'm going to be bookmarking so that I can look like I know what I'm talking about in the weeks to come.

June 7, 20187 yr England performance tonight was very promising, nice to see Rashford play really well.
June 8, 20187 yr England and Belgium will both qualify but which first and which second is anyone's guess.
June 8, 20187 yr Just out of curiosity has anyone booked time off for some World Cup matches? kick off times for the matches in UK time are 1 PM, 4 PM & 7 PM. I'll most likely have to rely on highlights for the afternoon matches during the week. Next Saturday there's going to be 4 matches taking place one after the other, definitely gonna try to watch all 4 live.

Shame on one of the best days of football though I'm actually busy all day!

Luckily, I just need to finish my work placement assignment which is in for Thursday morning and I've finished 2 year of Uni and I am free for the summer. Definitely watching every watch of the World Cup, I'll try and have one on the TV & one on my phone during round 3 of the group stage fixtures. :lol:
June 9, 20187 yr I have booked the first couple of days off of work (got something to do the day it starts which is convenient, means I have more than just that excuse) so I should be able to see at least the first round of group matches of nearly every team, which is probably going to keep me satisfied prior to getting fatigued of it all. I think the first two matches I will miss are unfortunately South Korea and Japan's first matches but I'll just make sure to catch their second ones.
June 9, 20187 yr Don't need any time off luckily for the England matches! Not overly bothered by any of the others enough to watch them Live I'll just stick on the evening matches as background telly.
June 12, 20187 yr Author Cesc Fabregas will also be part of the BBC's World Cup punditry team - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/44435725 His first appearance will be Spain V Portugal on Friday.
June 12, 20187 yr Well Belgium in terms of the fact they have a pretty poor recent record at WCs but they're pretty much everybody's go to "dark horse". Otherwise it's hard to call, I'd say a team from Africa will be in the Quarters but not sure which one. Then maybe why not Iceland causing a few more upsets?
June 13, 20187 yr The 2026 World Cup will be in USA/Canada/Mexico. It's a shame, I really wanted a Morocco world cup.
