First game up is Russia v Saudi Arabia. Amnesty International look away now

The best I have seen is the England team visiting a Moscow Orphanage. 'It was sad seeing those unhappy faces that have no hope' little Vladiinir aged 6 said.

The time zone is just a shocker for this one, games at midnight, 3am, 6am, how am I supposed to watch England crash out over breakfast this time?

NZ times for games

NZ times for games

Is Sky Sport still a thing?

Full of hope here. The egotistical wa****ers have all retired now and this is a very young team who have been playing well. The manager is a good lad, not a Swedish sex pest nor an intense Italian nutter. We won't win it but a good start and who knows how far we can go.

It’s on Prime tv here but you’ve gotta record them (unless you’re an insomniac!)

That was a warm up friendly England A vs England u23's.

Had to laugh when Chris Wood was picked by a couple of pundits. The good thing is the latest generation of players dont carry the baggage of the past judging from Union and League. Cant see England winning but should make you blokes proud.

Good game Spain v Portugal. Do get sick of the theatrics, hope they clamp down on it this time, ruins the game. Looking forward to the tournament though......

Aussies just about to kick off against France.

Aussies just about to kick off against France.

Watched the first hour- no goals- then changed over to watch the league for 5 minutes, changed it back and its 1-1.
I must've fell asleep at the end because I thought that's how it ended but saw this morning that France got a late winner.
So I watched almost the whole game and still managed to miss all the goals.
Farkin soccer

A lot of the group games can be quite dull, teams trying not to lose. There were 4 games on TV here yesterday, at various points I was dipping in and out of them and also watching bits of England v Aussie ODI cricket, England v SA at rah rah and the US open golf. I like sport!

Following Mexicos campaign since they have played the All Whites a fair bit.

What a win over Germany.

Watched Brazil game. Neymar was rubbish. Despite history I reckon England will go deep. Playing in Volgograd which used to be Stalingrad so the tabloids will have all those cliches set to go

 

[Lord Gnome of Howick MBE]

England have a band.

I’m done.

Cunts.

Being going for years man, keep up at the back there. All they play is the Great Escape theme tune, drives you mad

Brazil got ripped off.
