[Football] Will you be watching the Russia World Cup ?

[Triggaaar]

I've no idea who they are.

You will.

What if I never use them anyway?

You do.

 

[studio150]

Will try to watch as many games as humanly possible, but again work gets in the way!

No games to miss on your night shift and who needs sleep

 

[Frutos]

Yep.

I like football, so will be watching as much of it as I can.

 

[studio150]

Missing the Opening Ceremony as these are always dire but will try to watch as many games as possible. All will be on mute as both BBC and ITV commentators are terrible.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Yes. I said YES. Why does this thread keep being bounced to the top?

oh...

 

[Pogue Mahone]

I genuinely thought I would boycott it as I don't believe that Russia should be hosting such a massive sporting event. Qatar, too.

But no, as it draws near, I know I'll be watching...

I particularly want to watch the less prominent nations. Peru, Morocco, Costa Rica etc. I love this side of the World Cup.

 

[bluenitsuj]

Every game possible but will be in Taiwan for second half of tournament so could be tricky.

Boycott the sponsors!

Is that in China?

Don't need any reminding Russia is the host, will tidying my sock draw while its on

 

[vegster]

Be bloody glad when it starts, fed up of 5Live's " All over it " coverage for the last 10 days with pretty much sod all to say. Going to have to dodge Savage and Murray as best I can or I'll go mad

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

I will be cherry picking the games I want to watch, but if they are crap I will give up, except England I will sit through our games.
If other games are on when I am in I will give them a go, if they are good I will stay, if they are crap I wont.
I rarely get interested until the knockout stages.

 

[Tony Towner's Fridge]

My first World Cup being nearly retired. Every bloody match...it's the greatest show on Earth!

TNBA

TTF

 

[Westdene Wonder]

Why would'nt you watch the World cup? It's the biggest tournament in football.

No longer,there are so many nations that are not up to the standard, if we should meet some of the great sides then i will switch on

 

[Lyndhurst 14]

Yes - the downside is that Fox won the TV rights in the States and have decided to go with a mainly US commentary team. One of the non-Americans is that knob Warren Barton.

Previous World Cups were shown by ESPN who did a good job with a mainly Brit team.

 

[Stato]

John Oliver summed it up four years ago:

Let's face it, if hell was hosting, we'd all still watch. Actually, with Fifa in charge there's a good chance Hell will get it's turn.

 

[Hamilton]

I'll watch some. See how it pans out.

 

[bluenitsuj]

Is that in China?

No. Although many believe it is.

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

I'll start off by watching a bit, but I'll get drawn in, I always do. Its the World Cup, greatest show on earth.

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

I can’t wait, I bloody love the World
Cup and will watch and listen to as much as the other half will let me!

I will admit to being a hypocrite though as I moaned constantly about the international breaks during the season but I just love the tournaments.
