    Still haven't voted because a) I'm greedy and want both, and b) it's like asking a child to choose between Christmas and his/her birthday.

    So far, much as I have enjoyed this World Cup, none of the England goals have had the emotional impact on me of Gabbi's goal at Swansea.

    On the other hand, I went to the Globe Theatre on the South Bank last night to watch Hamlet; at one point you could hear noises offstage which at first I thought were part of the play - Fortinbras arriving at the gates of Elsinore with his army perhaps? But on a closer listen, you could clearly here "it's coming home, football's coming home"

    Wouldn't get that with Saints, not in London anyway - so it's just different. Not sure either is better.

    World Cup is like Christmas. Everybody celebrates together at the same time across the country. Saints/Lincoln is like your Birthday. Its your day and you celebrate with a smaller group but hardly anyone else in the country is celebrating.
