I am and feeling quite sad about it. Anyone want to keep each other company while we watch?

@username18702

I think Southgate needs to make some changes in the second half.
He looks perfectly fine in his suit!

I’m not watching myself but this is the first year ds has ever really been into it all, he’s 9.
Dh has previously gone out to watch most England matches either down the pub or with friends but this year he’s stayed home to watch it with ds.
Not my cup of tea but it’s nice that they enjoy it together. I took ds to the shop on the way home from school today so he could choose snacks.
Enjoy the game everyone! (I’m tucked up in bed with the telly, MN and a bag of maltesers Grin )

@VerticalHorizon That actually made me laugh Grin

Are you one of those ladeez who has the hots for him? He does look very dapper.

I've watched every match of the tournament alone.
My DH hates football

Stuckinmyhead9 · 07/07/2021 21:01

@TheChosenTwo that’s lovely, bet it’s great to see them bonding over it!

I am such a Saka fan. Great player.

I am watching with my DS . I have not really been interested since the start but today feels somehow special. GO ENGLAND 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿!!!!!

VerticalHorizon · 07/07/2021 21:06

I want Saka to score...

then I'll know Saka Can (Chaka Khan)....

I'm wasted here!

VerticalHorizon · 07/07/2021 21:16

Time for Foden and Grealish.

Great play there.

colouringindoors · 07/07/2021 21:19

they're trying bless 'em!

Anycrispsleft · 07/07/2021 21:19

I've sent DH upstairs to watch it on his own as he's decided he's supporting Denmark. I'm Scottish, he's from a European country- but our kids are English, they call themselves English, their wee German school colleagues are all on about how they might win... and then thst bloody fun sponge is like "oh I'd like Denmark to win, I support the underdog" - if I can find it in myself to support England (and I do!) he could manage too or at least keep quiet. I wanted you to win before, now I really want you to win!

Brilliant game

username18702 · 07/07/2021 21:20

Lovely to hear a woman commentator.

VerticalHorizon · 07/07/2021 21:20

Doesn't feel like it!.
I'm not enjoying it one bit!

colouringindoors · 07/07/2021 21:20

VerticalHorizon · 07/07/2021 21:21
