    Few lads round tomorrow for the game. Chilli and Curried Goat, beer and football. It’s going to be a great day.

    We always win when I have a World Cup do.

    I hope we start like last time out. But, add a little more ruthlessness.
    They are coming to spoil the party, lets not give them a sniff.

    Absolutely. The best overall entertainment level of any group stage in at least the past twelve years for me. I've missed a lot of games owing to work, but even watching some of the matches after the fact (and knowing the outcomes) they've been gripping stuff. 29 games, only 4 draws, and most matches competitive...hard to beat that.

    Could be some cagey stuff for the final games of each group, but that's nigh on unavoidable.

    I always pick one game a tournament, especially if it falls on a weekend.

    It’s usally a tight 1-0 win though.

    I'm still a mite worried about how well-behaved they'll be after Russia is eliminated, but so far, so good.

    You’d be welcome. But if you’re here before 12:00, you’ll be on chicken poop scooping duty!

    Doing something very similar with out the goat.

    Lunch time bbq, beers and ciders cooling already. And Eton mess for dessert, that was the missus’ idea.

    Beer, Ciders, Guiness and wine in the fridge. No dessert prepared but I think there could also be a mess! :)

    No alcohol for me today as I'm on call and have to connect up to patch a couple of servers after 4pm today :(

    I will be having a celebratory glass of wine after about 7pm (providing the patches don't break the servers...if they do I am in a whole world of pain!)

    I’m afraid I cannot like this comment as it’s against my religion.

    I will drink on your behalf, and mourn this comment.

    I think I'm finally ready for this match

    I have my Panama hat
    I have my Panama slimline panatellas
    I have just finished building a canal at the bottom of the garden.

    Next match against Belgium will be much easier, just going to get buns and chocolates.
