With unerring accuracy, one of my colleagues has booked a meeting with the Director on the exact time of the kick off of England’s only afternoon game in the group stages of the World Cup against Slovenia on 23 June. Within ten minutes she had received a polite email noting there was a clash of events.

The meeting has been rearranged.
