World Cup




Haven't commented on the world cup here. To be honest I didn't really get into it that much. The lunchtime and three o'clock kick offs didn't help but the football never really got going for me. Germany & Argentina played the best I thought but Spain were resilant and won the tournamount without really dominating. England were poor but I do feel had Lampards goal been allowed it may have been slightly different. Only made the pub a few times to watch games, the atmosphere down the Fountain (pictures above) was fantastic for the South Korea Uruguay game though the result went against them. Went to the New Inn for Engalnd Germany which was not over heaving and watched the Ghana Uruguay q-f in Wallington which was also fun and dramatic with the Uruguayan defender winning the game with a delibrate handball resulting in the last minute missed penalty. Didn't really see much of the final due to a christening but what I did see (the second half onwards) it was predicatbly drab. Shame the modern manager goes out with a view not to lose or ocncede goals instead of the attitude "We're going to score more than you".
