bpsaint Posted 9 July, 2018 Share Posted 9 July, 2018 Sutton never played in a WC semi-final. Nor has Sutton spent the last 28 years of carrying the burden of costing their country a place in the World Cup final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All joking aside, here on our holibobs in Spain we have been watching the games with a few intelligent chaps that actually go and watch footie, one of them has a Wife with zero interest in footie (Harry Potter plays up front for England!!!). Chatting the other day she pipes up and says “does Mrs JBS like football?”. To which her husband said before I could answer “yes” he said “ I had a most informative conversation with her at half time in the Columbia game”. So before you tar all treacle’s who “pollute” football with the same brush Ducky, just be warned there are a few who know their onions out there.

Pilchards Posted 10 July, 2018 Share Posted 10 July, 2018 Anyone know where the best place to watch the game in town? Prefer a larger venue rather than being crammed in a pub, less beer being thrown over me which I hate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some that are extremely knowledgable about football, they’re not the ones I’m moaning about, it’s the dopey birds who’ve suddenly decided “it’s coming home”. Personally I’m glad Mrs Duck is clueless and hates the game as I wouldn’t want her tagging along, but if your Mrs likes the game and you don’t mind that’s great. Occasionally Mrs Duck used to watch me play but I banned her after she embarrassed me in the pub. We’d just played & lost 2-1 in an important end of season game. I’d scored a penalty, which had to be retaken again for encroachment, and the second one also went it. The other lot came back to score 2 and win 2-1. Mrs Duck went ahead to the pub whilst we were showering, and the team arrived a few minutes later to the landlord and assorted locals congratulating us on securing a 2-2 draw. When they can’t even get the fundamentals right it’s pointless trying to educate them. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iansums Posted 10 July, 2018 Share Posted 10 July, 2018 I took my daughter to a few Saints games when she was younger but she was never really interested, she once said to her Mum "I only go to keep Dad happy". However she did come and watch the Sweden game with me, even the wife came in to watch the second half. It shows that people who normally have no interest in football suddenly want to watch when the national team is doing well, I really don't see a problem with it.

Pamplemousse Posted 10 July, 2018 Share Posted 10 July, 2018 I think the French are mentally weaker than the Belgians, they don't seem to handle pressure very well, so I'd prefer to face them personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minsk Posted 10 July, 2018 Share Posted 10 July, 2018 I took my daughter to a few Saints games when she was younger but she was never really interested, she once said to her Mum "I only go to keep Dad happy". However she did come and watch the Sweden game with me, even the wife came in to watch the second half. It shows that people who normally have no interest in football suddenly want to watch when the national team is doing well, I really don't see a problem with it. My daughter sometimes likes to come to St Mary's with me, and she really enjoyed watching the Colombia match - although got very stressed during the penalty shoot-out. But I wouldn't say she is really in to football. However, I have a couple of nieces who are season-ticket holders; one of whom also has her FA coaching badges and manages a local team. She is certainly more knowledgeable about Saints, and football in general, than many who post on here. Oh, and she looks far more like an average Swedish female football fan than an English one. Mrs Minsk is Belorusian and has only ever been to a couple of international matches with me; but she has really got into this World Cup (supporting England first, Russia second). I think it's great that she's getting more into football, not that she has ever complained about me watching every match possible - whether it be on TV, online or going to a stadium.

Mystic Force Posted 10 July, 2018 Share Posted 10 July, 2018 From my time living in Southampton I found the attractive women tended to pop out on Southampton Common when the sun came out. This leaves me to believe that they must hibernate under the grass only to appear when the temperature reaches 26 C. As you are currently experiencing a heat wave I suggest that you head there. Football is not that complicated. You have to hit the round ball thing in to the rectangular netted thing. It seems to be basically understood by men who can no longer walk straight due to excess alcohol consumption. I am sure the woman can cope.
