CUP FINAL DAY

Enjoy your footy


am just glad there's an off button


 

 Iv been out watching my Grandson play football in the junior final went to a draw 1x1 then went 10 minutes each way and still no out come so went to penalty shoot outs and his team lost the day, but never mind his team put up one hell of a good fight against the winners and all enjoyed the game  his mum and Dad,Sister,three aunties, two Grannies and one Great Grandad  watched and cheered him and his team on and lubricated our throats with a pint from the bar  and a beef burger to nibble on, oh what a lovely day the sun was shining as well, then home for dinner nice day. 

sounds much better than wembly

great example of what family life ought to be 

 Yes the day was most enjoyable Mrs P    as for the cup final I did not get to watch that, I saw highlights in the evening that's all, so Arsenal won  then 3x2   well now its the World Cup Coming up and looking at the location that's being played in this time, things don't look to promising as there are mass protests against the vast amounts of monies that the Brazilian Government is spending on new stadiums for the event, the people complain of rising Housing rents, lack of needs for the Countries Hospitals and Health projects and a whole host of other things that are making the ordinary Brazilian's life very hard thus forcing them to march, complain and even riot in the streets, all this and only a short time to go before the World Cup kicks of and Brazil see's mass Tourism as people from all over the World pour in for the event, lets hope that the event go's ahead in the spirit of the game and people can put their grievances to one side for the duration of the event and maybe the spending by those visitors to Brazil may go a long way to off set what the Brazilian Government has spent organising things, hope fully make a handsome profit  which it could then plough back into the economy and benefit its peoples to make their living a little less of a struggle. 

I forsee football fans and the Brazillians partaking in punch ups in the streets   

Oh dear!

 Me thinks you may be correct in your forcast  L.G.  

 you have to love the World Cup!!

 I hope them further South have calmed   down after the Falklands do or we may see a  renewed offensive   

 Its gonna be even quitter on here in a couple of weeks when the World cup is being played   iv got mi flags all ready for flying high and the car will be sporting a Saint Georges cross flag as well World class  football wall to wall (That's Soccer to our American viewers )    

 England v Peru 7.30 pm this evening iv got my Guinness, snickers bar's, crisps, Nuts and a punit of strawberry's all ready for kick off  

England won,  

3-0 To England    roll on the main event  

I'm not a Footie Fan, but appreciate the Beautiful Game-Enjoy it you Guy's 

 less than a week to go for kick of and how will this World cup fare amid story's of unrest and demonstrations against the cost of this event by the People of Brazil who are making their voices heard and have been in confrontation with the Brazilian security forces, will the influx of people arriving for the Matches be greeted with a welcome hand shake or be met with indifference or even violence, will the event go on peacefully or will there be riots etc in the streets that will mar this World event and bring Dishonour to the Government and people of Brazil World wide for years to come, well soon we will all know, hope fully it will turn into a spectacular event that could see Brazils investment in hosting this event rewarded which in turn could then be past down to the  peoples of Brazil in appreciation for their commitment. 

 England played a so called friendly with Honduras  last night and what a demonstration of dirty foot ball it was to   those Honduran players all though very good at defence and ball control were also dab hands at dirty tackling, at more than one point in the match I could have been forgiven for thinking   that their prime purpose in playing England's team was to try and cripple them on the pitch, yellow cards were flying about like confetti, then play was stopped for a while due to a thunder storm, England took it then in the last quarter they had enough and dealt it out back to them a little which did kind of calm them down a little, the score was a draw 0-0 the best thing was the Refs Red carding of one of Honduran players, I recon that 3/4 of their players needed red carding a totally disgraceful show of dirty play that iv seen in a long while, and they had no need for it as they undoubtedly were good football players, that is they would be if they played the game fairly, oh well we got away with out any serious injuries and are now down in Rio waiting for their first game in the World CUP. I noted to on the News as I mentioned before about Argentina yes some of their supporters were there with their banners shouting the Malvinas are Argentine   I thought they would seeing as how they are Neighbours of Brazil, lets hope we don't see out breaks of violence during the play
