Inconsiderate/oblivious parking. I live on a fairly narrow residential road so if two cars park on the pavement opposite each other you can't get through. Most people have drives so it's normally OK, but a non-resident was too thick to realise. I had to turn round and drive in the other end of...

Also forgot to mention Flintoff when they showed him at the other match, really good to see him out and about and smiling. I'd read that his injuries were bad but it looks like he's had his nose rebuilt or a skint graft, and his mouth and chin still don't look great.

Stokes is having fun! 172 off 116 so far...

I know he was only 16 but it makes me chuckle that the one time I’ve seen Bellingham live, a L1 Liam Kelly had him in his pocket

The guy at Hampden missed a trick by not replaying it on the screen 4 times

Why, did Southgate resign?

Very composed by Bellingham there, lovely pass through. Very clever finish by Foden too.

Do we know if Hull are likely to have any first teamers rested/missing for this?

Fellow football nerds FiveThirtyEight have us as the 178th best team in the world, that's a hell of a difference. Wouldn't have a fucking clue how to work out why that is though. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/soccer-predictions/global-club-rankings/

Yep, put a thin coat on yesterday and turned up as wet with sweat as I would have been with rain.

Foden: "I'd like to play in my favourite position, the one that gets the best out of me and where I can be most creative" Southgate: "Haha woooooah there billy big bollocks, that's not how we do things round here"

The instant flip from sweltering to pissing it down. Can't we just have a balmy 18deg with a bit of sun for a couple of days first?

Scotland v SA has been a belting game so far. The pass for the 2nd SA try was gorgeous, no look cross field kick.

I debated buying tickets to one of those QFs because you're pretty much guaranteed any of those teams v each other. It'll be amazing but my finances just couldn't stretch that far. It's funny because there's resale tickets going for the other QFs, nothing for those.

Starts tonight, France v NZ is a brilliant opening game. I'm doing a long weekend in Lille next month for England v Samoa and Tonga v Romania. Looking forward to it but a lot less excited than I was, just don't see us suddenly finding some form. We'll get out the group but probably bow out in...

Just buy a ticket for the points but don't actually go. That's what all the 1400+ elite do isn't it?

I visited a friend in Dubai and it was the same. Compounds for all the Western residents, house fully stocked with alcohol, bars/clubs etc. Just don't stagger down the street pissed and you're fine. My taxi got stopped at the compound gates once and I was waved through without question. Turns...

May derail the thread a little but have just seen this and thought it was interesting

You can add that shitshow to the thread as it goes. Off to Lille in a month watch England v Samoa, a lot less excited than when I bought the tickets a year ago. Doesn't help that one of the guys I'm going with is a Scotland fan.
