Coulthard's Jaw Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/44785165 Amazing article, got a bit emotional reading it, especially this bit Quote There is an unreality to it all. A frozen, sodden winter when the rain never stopped, a summer that started early and lit up everything for weeks. Sunlit mornings, evenings watching football with the windows and doors open and daylight in the sky until all the celebrating is done. A team beaten by a nation of 330,000 at their last big tournament, gone after the group stages at the previous World Cup, careering into the semi-finals and enjoying every moment of it. There are limitless reasons to fall out of love with football. The idiots you know even in the home end at your own club, the jingoism that snarls in the slipstream of national success. The price of shirts, the price of tickets, the booking fee for something bought in a microsecond from an automated page. The multiple satellite packages, the kick-offs before lunch and after Sunday tea-time, the money going to middlemen in a deal that didn't need them. Then you think of the adrenalised peaks and emotional releases of the past three weeks, the scenes in front of big screens around the country, the pleasure of seeing your happiness reflected in the faces and moods of people you have almost nothing else in common with. Only football can do this. England winning the rugby union World Cup brought enormous pleasure to vast numbers, the home Ashes triumph of 2005 giddy disbelief to those who had long grown used to Australian domination. Yet neither touched as many distant corners as this World Cup. The peak television audience for the deeds of Michael Vaughan's team was 8.4 million; 15 million saw Jonny Wilkinson drop his goal. Andy Murray's first Wimbledon victory brought in 17.3m, and that was a win for Great Britain. England's last-16 win over Colombia peaked at 23.6 million. Wednesday night's semi-final is likely to draw in yet more. And you don't want any of it to end. Football is going to revert to type for two of the teams still left in this World Cup. It will go back to being about regret and dejection and what might have been. For one team it will be something else. Colour, sunshine, joy. Maybe it will all end here. Maybe, this once, it will not.

Heartwork Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 If (when) we win the World Cup, will we be the first country to be reigning champions of the U17, U20 and senior World Cups at the same time?

Touching distance of the final. Exactly. I had very little expectations out of the Colombia game and honestly wouldn't have been that depressed if we'd lost it at all (same old England). This game is different - it could actually happen now and if it doesn't it's going to be devastating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wigmore Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I have a call with a client from 4-5pm today, there is no way I'll be listening or offering anything productive in our conversation. I won't name and shame them for organising a call at such a stupid time on a day like today, but this popular personalised greetings card online business really should've thought about the game before they booked in this call. It's about as careless as sending a pig to the moon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
