I just went on my exercise bike for a bit whilst listening to the first half. Started doing this in the 2018 World Cup. I mean I’ve had a break, obviously. But is the new way of listening to daytime football for me. although to be fair if I didn’t have to do stuff tomorrow I probably would’ve gone to the pub.

looking good for the drawer. Slower second-half unless all the subs are used.

Man Utd subs won’t come on till we need a penalty .

Talking of the heat, I just found myself jealous of Alex Scott and... apologies, the woman she's talking to, for their outfits. I know generally men get the better end of the clothing deal, but on a hot day like this a lose-fitting skirt/summer dress does look rather preferable, even to something like shorts and a t-shirt.

Aaaaaaaaaand, back to the football

Not just yet, what's your views on tulle versus taffeta?

I think the latter is a kind of craft paper?

Understandable, we all want to hug Raheem.

Yes. Us. Liverpool. Fans. All. Do.

It is (as expected) all a bit tentative now. Likely one defensive mistake or poor clearance will settle this, if at all.

 

[not-bono-ever]

Croatia half time instructions : just keep the English out of the shade and in the sunny bit and they will be fucked

 

[JimW]

Poor game for the neutral though I'm enjoying our showing enough. On the shadow thing, you'd think a purpose built stadium that host late season finals even when it's not a summer tournament might have considered that.

 

[not-bono-ever]

Oh

 

[blairsh]

Yes!

 

[planetgeli]

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[not-bono-ever]

Dear

 

[Lord Camomile]

Haterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrzzz

 

[not-bono-ever]

Me

 

[blairsh]

Okay, pile on the fucking pressure now.

 

[Mation]

Yes.

 

[JimW]

Get the fuck in!

 

[two sheds]

 

[Badgers]

It's...

 

[BristolEcho]

Nice. Was waiting for that break. Should open up now so the defence will be fully tested.

 

[xenon]

Nice.

 

[The39thStep]

Two perfect passes in that goal

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Phew!!

 

[JimW]

How he rode that first tackle

 

[Sprocket.]

Gerrin!

Always liked Sterling, never doubted him
