It was a lovely surprise that the Lionesses were playing yesterday as I'd forgotten and needed cheering up. Never fear, my T-shirt is washed for tomorrow and currently going around in the dryer. ⚽️ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Apparently at Norwich City's ground. Was there the contractually obliged shot of Delia Smith in the crowd?

Too nervous to eat breakfast

late to this party, i'm not a big fan of Internationals, but it's the final so i feel obliged to watch.

I am Very Cross Indeed that it is so late 9pm here in Germany. That really gets on my nerves, there is zero need for that, it's a European competition and the earliest anyone in Europe gets to see it is 8pm. On a freaking Sundy. Grumble grumble grumble

It's definitely not aimed at the European market such a late kick off Hmm

What time and day was the final of the last Euros?

Sunday 8pm as well, so nothing new but still annoying

It would have really helped me to be at like 4pm today.

8pm UK time though. This is 9pm in the host country. And it's one reason this will be the last time i follow the EUROs.

AhBiscuits · 14/07/2024 12:19

The 8pm kick off is an absolute pain. We've been camping this weekend, so the kids are already knackered, but want to stay up and watch. School tomorrow. Gah.

Villagetoraiseachild · 14/07/2024 13:05

Wonder if the sponsors/advertisers are calling the shots with regards the very late start?
Not child or work friendly unless there's a bank holiday Monday.
There'll be a lot of hangovers and sickies being pulled.

Where I'm from it will be 10pm. Like all international sports always. Meeting my brother at the pub at 9.30. Already tired. Came to uk to visit family in June and the 8pm kick off was a luxury!

But I'm sure someone has calculated the broadcasting times and multiplied by amount of viewers per time zone and then come up with this bs that is inconvenient for me 😁

Oblomov24 · 14/07/2024 14:16

I too wish it was 4pm not 8pm.

the80sweregreat · 14/07/2024 14:26

Feels such a long day doesn't it?
I'm not even a football fan, but this late kick off isn't great

BirthdayRainbow · 14/07/2024 14:27

I'm watching the tennis to pass the time.

Though I refused to put my Wimbledon top on as don't like Djokovic. Just realised could have put it on for Carlos 🇪🇸

How does it feel so long!?

I haven't just been sat here waiting, have had a rather busy day and it has only just gone 3! Every other Sunday passes in the blink of an eye.

the80sweregreat · 14/07/2024 15:44

The last final Sunday in 2021 was the same too !
Seemed to be longer than a normal Sunday

AhBiscuits · 14/07/2024 16:17

Has the tennis predicted the outcome? 3-0?

BirthdayRainbow · 14/07/2024 16:49

That's fine as long as it's 3-0 England.

Cadela · 14/07/2024 16:54

I’m not even looking forward to this at all. Feel unwell with nerves 😂

Dd has gone to my parents and I’m going to a local venue so hopefully beer helps.

COME ON BOYS!

the80sweregreat · 14/07/2024 17:17

Not looking forwards to it either :(

Oblomov24 · 14/07/2024 17:17

@DuncinToffee
Op have you got a thread 4 at the ready?

Oblomov24 · 14/07/2024 17:18

Dh is excited. I'm not. I find it painful.

Oblomov24 · 14/07/2024 17:19

Wimbledon was good. Ds1 says he hopes Spain have cashed in all their coins already for today.

the80sweregreat · 14/07/2024 17:20

It feels like this is their last chance ? Not sure that it is, but after losing it last time , it is just too much! Grr, I wish it was kicking off now!
