Can't concentrate at work. Nervous about the result tonight. So much pressure... kinda just want to see tonight out! Is anyone with me?

@Bombardier25966 I work in Birmingham city centre and can honestly say it's buzzing!

Me! So nervous - I just can't quite believe we can really do it no matter how much I want to.
Old enough to remember 1990 so clearly and 96.
Everything crossed

Ugh I'm nervous too. It would mean so much, even just to be in the final. Sometimes I have to turn the channel over while it's on to calm my nerves!

@BitchQueen90 I'm going to the pub to watch it. Usually my worst nightmare at 23 weeks pregnant but the atmosphere is too good to miss.

I’m also nervous and I really don’t know why. Southgate was also the first person to make me cry over football Sandsnake so I don’t know if that has something to do with it. Not only do I want the win for the team and the country, I really want it for him too Grin

YANBU I remember the 1990 World Cup and we need to get it done this year! We'll never have an easier route again. I knocked my blokes off early today so we could get ready for the game!

God I feel sick! Confused

When is it starting? It’s DH’s and my wedding anniversary tonight. I’m just putting the baby down and wondering if I can persuade him to watch football instead of our, ahem, other plans....

BitchQueen90 · 11/07/2018 19:37

@AveAtqueVale starting? It's almost half time! Kick off was at 7pm. Grin

Shock on it!

I was excited and London was buzzing this evening on the journey home. Complete strangers were talking on the bus. When I got off the train there was a queue out of the door at the Sainsbury's Local next to the station and almost every person was buying beer and wine!

Fuck!!
