Surely this is going too far. I wouldn’t agree with it if it was the final.

Even my office is making allowances for people staying up late to watch the game and people can work 11am-7pm if they want to.

Some people on this thread are such killjoys.

Watch how gleeful some will be if (when?) we lose. Talk of getting back to normal (i.e. when everyone feels as hopeless as they do). What a shitty way to live.

What have you to say about the goalkeeper from Paraguay calling the French team African?
Racism abroad is far worse than here.
We need to eradicate any form of racism or hatred, including those spouting unkindness towards those trying to have fun watching the football.
Hows that for a bag of apples? Be away and leave people alone.

What do I have to say?

Racism is wrong every time and I condemn it, whoever does it.

Unkindness is a different kind of apple entirely.

I will be watching, big football fan and a leftie in case you are wondering

When I was at uni I used to go out to a club til 2 am, get hammered, a kebab on the way back and then up for a lecture at 09:00.

I don't think watching a single 2 hour match at 1 am is going to be any great crisis.

Well well well,

How this thread has changed. OP posted this thread.

Pubs open till 5am, children encouraged to miss school by the England manager.

We were intended to debate the pros and cons of this statement.

And now we are discussing, or should I say arguing racism.

Yeah I am confused, I read the first page and jumped to the last one and everyone was talking about racism and I was like, huh?

Id forgotten the football was on. I live in the midlands and have managed to avoid it. I hope everyone who is watching the match has a good time. But I hope my neighbours aren’t loud because I am tired.
