WORLD CUP (There, I've done it)

[Bigmallly]

I can't be tho only grape following the best tournement in the world surely?.......who are you rooting for? & don't say (Swede)n...................I want to hear from grapes outside of England espescially the Scots........please dismiss the myths. My wife is Scottish and is looking all over for an ABE T-shirt...............

Wooooohhhhoooooo nice one fella. I didnt want to be the first to mention it but I just cant wait. I love it.
Clearly am supporting England, but dont see us progressing past the quarters.
Work with a Jock who has an ABE T-shirt that he is wearing to work daily.

ETA: I still cant believe the flack that Andy Murray got all those years ago when sat in a press conference with Tim Henman sat next to him. Henman wished the England footy team all the best in a match they were playing that evening, whilst Murray said he would support anyone but England. Why not? He's not English!

I have the host nation as my sweepstake team at work, and our dept team is Engerland.

I also entered a competition via a supplier and ended up with Engerland as my sweepstake team in that one too.

LadyWayne's quite excited about it.

I can honestly say I'll take it or leave it, but if we end up in a pub and a game is on, you can't help getting carried along with it can you?

I am sure I heard some singers slipping in a "n" in the middle of the word which is also the title.

Well it maybe because if it was the Scottish (or Welsh, NI etc) playing that evening then I for one would like the British team to win against Jonny foreigner, but C'est la vie as one would say.

PS the only downside of all this is that Adrian Chiles is fronting ITV

Part of the title is Waka Waka, a "n" in the middle makes all the difference (perhaps it their accents)

[Bramble_killer]

YAY! someone started it. We're looking forward to watching the first game at 3 (as it's so wet outside!!) and I got Portugal for the sweepstakes at work, not really supporting any team just like watching it.

we have 2 wallcharts up in the office (big open plan space), one at each end

[Nicos]

...it'll be the accents I'm sure!...trust you!
