To wish the people screaming outside would shut up?

[Notcontent]

Yes, I do understand that people are excited about the football, but it’s Tuesday night and my DC, who is completely exhausted, has to get up early for school - the rather scary shouting has just woken her up. Yep, I know someone will say I should move to the middle of nowhere. I would love to - as many people would - but sadly that’s not possible.

But football is coming home, it's official.

Yes agreed.

3 year old just woken up by screaming and asking me “what’s “fucking come on” mean?”

It’s a weekday and this is a residential area.

Excited car honking now annoying me as well.

Annoying but it's only every 4 years and it's been 12 years since England got this far. People are excited!

Do you live near me? I can hear it too

But... we won...

They’re doing it here too! I’m so sick of the football! It’s just football but seems like it’s a great excuse to get drunk and act like a hooligan

My cat jumped 3 feet in the air when I yelled. Karma, I do it when she brings home animals 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes. YABVU.

For God's sake. World cup happens every 4 years, first time England have ever won a world cup penalty shootout. Some people are quite excited by that. Fair enough.

Sorry that was me haha.

People probably get woken up and disturbed by your screaming kids playing outside of a weekend morning. Everyone’s allowed to make noise every now and again.

Scary noise Jesus wept

I live next to an ex professional football player. There were lots of shouts from their house. Mainly their teen son and his mates I suspect. Who then ran out into the garden for a lap of honour and a few kicks at goal.

Doesn’t bother me but I don’t have young children asleep.

My dh just accidently woke our newborn up. He feels bad, I laughed. Sometimes you can't help but shout.

Yes. We're going to make Britain great again by winning a football game.

I would just try to be grateful you're not one of the people who will be subjected to an extra dose of domestic violence this evening as a result of a football game and get to dread England losing at some point because that means a bigger extra beating.

It just occurred to me to wonder whether DV escalates in other countries when their team play or is England special in that way?

shut your windows then! lordy some people enjoy sucking all the fun out of life

Mine woke up and shouted down, "we've scored mummy!"

I love it! Meant I didn't need to watch it, just listen to the neighbours.

fgs gold

Yes I was thinking that too!

@Goldmandra yes I’m sure male violence is caused by football.....

It’s happy noise... I don’t particularly care if we win or lose, but I like the happiness it creates.

I also like that I knew what was happening without having to watch it just by listening to the neighbours 👌

Move to Wales. No one gives a shit about the football here

It's the first time ever England have won a shoot out at the World Cup, people can have a few minutes to celebrate surely.
