Just about saved our group that final game. Iran and USA are going to be hard games to watch. England can fast forward to knock out stages and rotate as much as we want.
 
One thing I did take notice of on talkSPORT during the week was the kick off time Qatari time. They are 3 hours ahead of us.

4 kick off time slots to be determined....
Qatar time :-
1pm
4pm
8pm
10pm

UK Time
10am
1pm
5pm
7pm

Knock an hour off for each UK time if the clocks going back in October effect anything.

Once the draw is all sorted, the TV companies will the see what slots they would like to determine kick off times.

almost a bye for england there then.

can someone actually explain why we had to sit through that pointless opening few minutes of 'please take the red ball'...pot 1 was already placed in the 'number 1' slots so why the farce of opening another ball to confirm it ffs?

saudi's going large on having plenty of females involved here like, so far none gone out on a limb and said 'gays not allowed' but they do seem to be pushing the 'no outside shows of affection', which could also be another way of saying all are welcome just dont walk the streets 'advertising' you are gay.

great draw for England, real chance to go a long way in the tournament. Mates had looked into going over for group games but prices are stupid. So we're going to watch it in Gran Canaria instead, bit of a compromise but cheaper, cooler, and less sexually restrictive!! win win :emoticon-0105-wink:

Sounds ideal mate.

Draw was in Doha wasn't it?
 
"... saudi's going large on having plenty of females ..."

aye, figured you were trying to 'split hairs' so to speak...considering everyone has spoken about 'the saudi regime' and i was not simply referring to the draw i do not consider my statement to be wrong, you may feel differently and that is your choice...very disappointed that you felt the need to just jump in rather than make any real contribution mind.

Sorry mate, sometimes the aspie in me takes over <doh>
