I was in Austria during the world cup (really great place), I have some friends in/near vienna who were telling me about the woes of there club football.

It was great fun watching the games on the big screen, wonderful crowd but why on earth did ORF('full') decide
1) to swap between games
2) Decide that a throw on was more interesting then an England goal?
We missed 3 goals in one match due to such impressive choices....

There was a lighting storm every day when we staying in salzburg, really added something to the game, I still have some free waterproofs which ORF gave away :)

The really dreadful thing about watching England play is that you ACTUALLY think they will win this time...finally...after all these years...even though you KNOW not to hope...but they start off playing so well during the first half, and even though you've seen it all before your heart starts beating fast...your on a high during half time, loads of people around the world are now watching the match because it's a quarter final....
Then in the second half in front of millions of people they crash and burn.

Again. And again.....and...but maybe in 2008 finally we....yeah right :P
(Still I know I'll start to believe again when that half time comes. :D )
