    A peculiar male affliction this football lark, we are fortunate ladies we have proper fun.

    I like football!! Used to hate it (ex-hubby was into motorsports) but now I love it.

    My first World Cup as a fan was 2002 and it was great. Because of the time difference between Japan/South Korea (the host nations) and England, a lot of the matches were held early in the morning. In the pub at 6am with a bacon buttie and a pint of Fosters for breakfast :beer:

    It's ok. Ann and Elsie are our figureheads, like the Queen. They will just give them medals and the players will curtsy to them, we dont have to know the rules or anything. But i think football is just like hockey in terms of rules. But i really don't understand it. At all. Jenni does, she is v clever. Jinny do you?

    I only know things from years ago. Was Andy Gray an expensive player, Did he play for a Midlands team? it rings a bell. Dad and Brother were football nutters and still are. A peculiar male affliction this football lark, we are fortunate ladies we have proper fun.
    He played for Wolves & Aston Villa from the Midlands. Think he also had a brief spell at Rangers.

    Think Niddy might have something to say about that Ann. Ally McCoist is a former Rangers player, he's a coach at Rangers now i think.:D

    Gosh, do you really drink beer Pixie? My sister's ex-husband liked it and always let me have a sip. I didn't like it so he used to add diet coke to it for me. He was nice to me. Ann do you drink beer?

    Oh yes speaking of scared poor Pixie. Oh my gosh. She always sounds so brave and she was upset today. Pixie it is ok we love you and everything will be ok. big hug.

    Thanks SW.

    I don't know what came over me earlier, not like me at all, but I was really upset :cry: I think it was thought of Niddy deserting me.
