Football is the most important of the less important things in the world.

It’s coming home!!! ..But I’ll just over here, hiding behind the sofa, watching over the top of a cushion that’s being squeezed to within an inch of its life until it’s all over…

I'll be at a friend's - where I was for the QF and SF.

What's everyone doing to distract themselves?

I'm trying to to continue on some fanfiction but not doing a very good job of it.

DH is playing football songs all day

Bitofachinwag · 10/07/2021 22:37

What snacks are you planning for tomorrow's match?

wheresmyhairytoe · 10/07/2021 22:42

Me and DD have not washed our shirts since the group stages, mine stinks I sweated that much on Wednesday 😂 but they're staying unwashed.

Last Saturday I tried a cider, I haven't drunk for years, it always gave me a bad stomach which it still does it transpires but we won 4 nil so I've bought another bottle and will be taking one for the team tomorrow night 😂

We've had beans in some form for tea since the last group game so that's what's for tea tomorrow.

Not that we're superstitious at all 😂

Blowingagale · 10/07/2021 22:44

Snacks - at home so pretzels or popcorn maybe.

Bitofachinwag · 10/07/2021 22:48

Popcorn is a good idea Smile , or cake...

DuncinToffee · 10/07/2021 22:52

Anything that you can eat without taking your eyes off the match and you don't mind spilling

Had "it's coming home" stuck in my head day! I really hope we win

FootballisComingHome · 10/07/2021 22:56

Imagine, if you'd have told the disappointed fans that watched Southgate miss that penalty 25 years ago that he'd be leading England into the Euro finals in 2021, you know what they'd probably say?

You're bad at maths. The Euros are every four years, so they won't be happening in 2021.

coastergirl · 10/07/2021 23:26

Our father, who art in Wembley, Southgate be thy name.
The cup will come, Kane's work will be done, in London as it was in Rome
Give us this day our daily pint And forgive Sterling’s offside trespasses, as we forgive those who bet against us.
And lead us not into under-achievement. But deliver us the title.
For football’s coming home.
The history and the glory.
Forever and ever.
Our men.♥️🎉⚽️🏆🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Keep the faith, Beleive ... Its coming home ❤❤

MrsGulDukat · 10/07/2021 23:28

Nicely put Coastergirl.
