World cup starts today

[Termite Man]

fucking brilliant . I have set the South Africa mexico game to record so I can watch it tommorow . I really shouldn't be this excited about the world cup , especially since I'm not too bothered about England or any of the other teams ( I am supporting mexico this year )

Why Mexico? Why not England?

What an awful family tragedy for the Mandela family overnight. Jesus, what a shame.

 

[AverageJoe]

Aye, not happy news at all

BBC has it that Nelson Mandela won't be attending the opening game.

Still, happy World Cup Day everyone

[The Master]

[Le Shark]

I'm buzzing already - can't wait!!

I love the World Cup

 

[Termite Man]

Why Mexico? Why not England?

because mexico is brilliant

 

[ChrisFilter]

Can't argue with logic like that.

Wish I was.

Is anyone so commited to the World Cup that they are going to endure the opening ceremony?

I wanted to watch it at work - partly 'cos I like a bit of pomp and stuff and also 'cos it would pass a couple of hours in the office. But 1.00pm is when our server is scanned which makes the 'puters run slow so we have been asked not to watch anything online then

 

[Teaboy]

Not trying to rub it in for our celtic neighbours but I'm really fucking pleased that England are in this tournement. The euro's although enjoyable were a bit meh, I'm really looking forward to this World Cup.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Illd love South Africa to cause an upset. Their fans are confident apparently, some saying a 3-1 win to them? And people say we overhype our chances? HA

 

[chieftain]

Come on england

[TrippyLondoner]

Gonna stick some tunes on during the ceremony, cant be assed with these usually.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Aint bad for an opening ceremony, mind you.

 

[TitanSound]

He was suprisingly good.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Nah, still was good. Not a fan of him though.

[TrippyLondoner]

Loving that north korea were training in a gym with the locals being there cause they couldnt afford their own place.

 

[Le Shark]

So close now!!

I wish I was there or failing that, in the pub

I'll take being able to watch it in an empty office though
