Land of Hope and Glory – Day 124, originally uploaded by rutty.
This is an old photo but I thought I’d post something about the most important game (so far) for England in the last couple of years.
3pm: England vs Slovenia in which England puts its millions of fans through the wringer. Again. If we win, we’re through. If we draw we have to hope that the USA/Algeria game also ends in draw with the same scoreline (or worse) and that we’re lucky in the subsequent lucky dip.
So: a win or nothing, then. No pressure.
England were as bad as I’ve ever seen them against Algeria and I’m expecting better today. I finish work at 2pm and will be over to some friends’ house to “celebrate” our “inevitable” victory.
