Just that really. England - Wales. Couldn't see a thread. Not super exciting yet...

Agree re Rashford

UrsulaPandress · 29/11/2022 20:29

Bless him.

No. But I don't really need to.
My neighbour is shouting like an absolute tw*t. Brilliant when I'm trying to get two poorly toddlers to sleep 🙃

Oh look, obscenely highly paid sportsmen do their job

Ah, I think that’s a bit of an out-dated view now. This team is different from the past.

Talented and socially responsible young men work hard and are excellent role models for other youngsters and are well rewarded for it?

Swashbuckled · 29/11/2022 20:31

@HeddaGarbled yeah, that works for me. 😊

FasterthanBolt · 29/11/2022 20:32

I'm watching and loving it. Ignore the naysayers OP. I'm going for a 5-0 win

Being welsh, I support Wales but I am realistic. I support England when Wales aren't playing.

UrsulaPandress · 29/11/2022 20:33

@HeddaGarbled 👏

Literally a game of two halves, first half boring as fuck, second half is actually quite exciting.

Plus they don't seem to be throwing themselves on the floor as much GrinFootballFootballFootball

DahliaBlue · 29/11/2022 20:34

So happy for England to go through but it would have been great if Wales could have gone through too.

Swashbuckled · 29/11/2022 20:34

@DahliaBlue I've LOVED watching the Welsh sing.

Yma o Hyd moved and stirred me so much.

Life is pretty miserable for some people right now so I cannot fathom those that want to shit all over someone enjoying watching a sport.

chikp · 29/11/2022 20:34

No sorry

Swashbuckled · 29/11/2022 20:35

@DahliaBlue and I would have loved for Wales to go through too.

English, and I really wanted Wales to go through too.
I support all the home nations when they play (except when at the detriment to England of course)

I am, I'm bored shitless and flicking between MN and Vinted!

I’ve only just discovered Vinted

it’s so good

Ted Baker jacket arrived today….a tenner 🏆

Swashbuckled · 29/11/2022 20:37

God that was close!

Swashbuckled · 29/11/2022 20:37

@hamstersarse I hope you're wearing it to watch the match 😊

InternetRandom · 29/11/2022 20:37

I take credit for posting that it was like pulling teeth for the turnaround.

Stoked for Rashford. He's a great guy.

Swashbuckled · 29/11/2022 20:38

@credit where credit's due. 😊

Swashbuckled · 29/11/2022 20:39

Credit?
@InternetRandom 😂

There's a World Cup thread in sports.

There's a World Cup thread in sports.

Thanks for that; I'll check it out after the match.
