The official reason is because I work for a multi cultural company, only the English will want to watch it. Which is incorrect as I know the Portuguese ,Spanish Polish, etc people I work with would love to watch it...... I bet a load of people go sick now.
Bastards mate, probably shot themselves in the foot now too. I'm on nights so start at ten... no et please. Shame about the screen, was hoping for one Sunday if we won.
The council have said that they are still looking into putting up a big screen somewhere in Southampton should England reach the final!
I'm going over to do some Coastal defence surveying on the Isle of Wight. Believe me, I'm fighting my corner. England World Cup Semi is far more important!!
Hyde Park are doing an event for tomorrow for 30,000 people, was an online ballot entry and website crashed repeatedly so didn't get through in time.
I think Stan Collymore has hit the nail on the head in his column. https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/raheem-sterlings-embarrassing-team-worst-12884128
Woohoo. I'm off the hook. Managed to swap off with someone else from work that doesn't care about the football. Took a lot of persuading still, infact...it's all I've done all morning haha. Better do some actual work now!!
I have just been asked by my work colleagues if I have a form of "It's Coming Home Tourettes" I am signing all my emails and instant messages off with #itscominghome We have a new starter in IT today as well...he's Swedish (I didn't know when I joined in the group instant messaging). So I messaged, in that case I would like to thank Sweden for Abba, Ikea and not putting up too much of a fight on Saturday. Weirdly only the English in the messaging group were amused
Kind of what I was implying. Easy to joke when you are on top. We've been the butt of German humour in the past, so I suppose we've earned this.
