Returning thoughts... World Cup

A lot happened whilst I was away getting married and enjoying honeymoon.

Most importantly, the World Cup came and went. It was a good tournament with lots of action and incident which have been commented on to death, so I won't bother. However, I feel I need to comment on the performance of England. I watched the sorry performances from start to finish, particularly the penalties against Portugal. There are many things I could say... but my friend Jo sent me an e-mail, and he puts it all a lot better than I do..... Jo said....

"Here is some free advice.....if you do get a chance to go the world cup, go, it will move you and be everything you dreamed of but do yourself a big favor and follow any team, any team at all, from anywhere in the world just as long as it's not England!

Watching England, amongst the best fans in the world, although worryingly some of the ugliest, is even more painful live than on the box (TV). They are, without doubt, the most overrated, under performing, disappointing and generally piss poor football team I saw at the World Cup!"

Thanks Jo, well said!
