caddymanDismal first half, slightly better in the second.
I blame myself; I forgot to wear the lucky England shirt before half time. We were much better after I had rectified this sartorial error.
David "Golden Balls" Beckham becomes the first English player to score in three different World Cup tournaments as we stagger with ungainly authority towards glory. England always manage one outstanding performance in every tournament; we haven't seen it yet so there remains ground for hope. We can keep blaming the heat, I suppose, but it's the same for everyone and they have been there long enough to acclimatise.
See, I can clutch at straws with the best of them.
The next England match is on 1 July; I am going to have to find some way of entertaining![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ellefurtle for the duration of the game, though the quarter finals may be far enough through the competition for her to start being interested. Who knows? The one thing I am certain of, is that I shall need tranquilisers if they keep this style of performance going for much longer.
Oh well, we're through to the quarters and I guess that's what counts. If only we could do it with a little panache for once. Holland and Portugal play tonight; probably have to watch that game to see which of the two we meet on Saturday.
Later, peeps.
