I was with half a dozen mates (sadly most have passed away now) in a pub in Wolstanton Staffs, The Village Tavern, aged 18. The landlord had a Black and White TV, a Murphy I think, set up in the back room. If I recall correctly it was in the days when pubs closed between the afternoon and evening sessions, so the doors were locked and the landlord, an Irishman, had us all seated and insisted on giving waiter service.

I was 14 and was at my Grandma's watching the game with Grandad, Dad, and a variety of Uncles. The ladies didn't seem that interested.

//How sad, the churlish, peevish, anti British sentiment pervades early this morning. Off to find a friendly thread. //

How is saying what I said Anti British? Why don't you just call be a traitor as well whilst your at it?

What I said is true - every time England plays a match its all about how this is the next 66 etc etc!
