USA 94 was the first World Cup I remember
But France 98 was the first one I really got into and watched
Quite amazing you remembering a world cup 6 years before you were born.
I probably won’t watch any until the knock outs tbh
Unless I’m awake at silly o’clock anyway which is likely now I’m back in London
I'm too old to be regularlg sitting up into the early hours to watch random games that might last 4 hours.
Wouldn't even bother with our group games if they were middle of the night tbh.
Don’t think it’s feasible to do many during the week kicking off from 11. Booked a couple of days off during the second round. Would rather get up for a 4am than stay up for a 2am.
I plan to enjoy this WC cos my young un is into the game now so he's all excited for it.
Got him an England and Argentina replica top and a wall chart. Will pencil in the juicy group games, whichever ones he fancies watching...get some snacks in n cook samosa n **** and enjoy it to make it a memorable experience for him.
I guess school night late games might be an issue init

Nice mate get him on the nose and call the brasses round
It’s what every father should do when the boy comes of age
The first one I remember is Argentina 78.
Could 'sing' the theme tune in a second, remember when it came on was a catchy little ditti and they had all this ticker tape blowing down round legends like Mario Kempes.
Spain 82 was superb as well. Another one England ****ed right up, but that Brazilian side with Socrates, Zico and Falcao was absolutely awesome. As was the Italy team that eventually won it.

The first one I actually watched was 1966, and everyone since then has been a disappointment, most disappointing was the so called golden age under Ericson, multiple egos only interested in being the hero rather than a team player, not much has changed since then really, BUT who knows this time around if Tuchel can get the right combination of players all playing for each other
End of term, they do **** all anyway mate, memories of this together are more important, he'll remember it more than coming third in musical chairs. England out in the quarters and a tiny pack of haribo in pass the parcel will be equal amounts of disappointment, especially when teachers pet wins the matchmakers
