Anyone got any hard World Cup DILEMMAS coming up?

[Mendoza]

Anyone putting off stuff the really want to do or have been asked to do, purely on the basis that England might win the World Cup.

Not sure what the time difference is, I think they are 1 hour ahead. Local times have been put on the fixtures.

Group Games
12/6/10 - Saturday - England vs USA - 20.30 local time
18/6/10 - Friday - England vs Algeria - 20.30 local time
23/6/10 - Wednesday - England vs Slovenia - 16.00 local time

Assuming we win the group
26/6/10 - Saturday - England in 2nd round - 20.30 local time
2/7/10 - Tuesday - England in Quarter final - 20.30 local time
6/7/10 - Tuesday - England in Semi final - 20.30 local time

If we come 2nd in the group
27/6/10 - Sunday - England in 2nd round - 16.00 local time
3/7/10 - Wednesday - England in Quarter final - 16.00 local time
7/7/10 - Wednesday - England in Semi final - 20.30 local time


10/7/10 - Saturday - England in 3rd/4th Play Off - 20.30 local time

For me, I am meant to be going on a tour of the sets of Gavin and Stacey in Billericay and Barry Island, but have said I cant go on the basis that is it on the 6th July which depends on 2 things. a) England winning Group C and ii) England getting to the Semi Final.

I am in Canada for the Semi finals, the 3rd/4th play off, and the final.
Not sure whether to or
I think I should be OK for watching the matches though.

My main concern is that if we come second in our group, then I shall be flying whilst the quarter final is happening. Nightmare! Thankfully, I think we'll come first. In which case, it will be the day before I fly. Fun times.

not a dilemma...just the blatant FACT that the ECB decided to schedule Twenty/20 matches AT THE SAME TIME as Englands last two Group games meaning I'll be working.....DAMMIT

 

[dannyboy]

i may be wrong but im pretty sure if we win the group we play on the 26th not the 27th

Thats correct.

I saw that and thought I editted it, but it didnt save, think it is ammended now

 

[Ding Dong !]

Wife told me she'd invited two couples ( friends of ours ) around for a dinner party on Sat 12th June.


Er no love, you can cancel that for a start !!!!!!!!!!!

They just don't get it do they.

 

[dannyboy]

.... its a sat

you got me worried then , its my 40th bash that day , tv in the garden . now england will mess it up and come 2nd in the group

 

[Westdene Seagull]

The TV channels will have a dilema if both Gerrmany and Nigeria win their respective groups and their first second round match !!!

Will they display the score at the top of the screen as GER 0 - 0 NIG or the other way round

To watch the games, or see my girlfriend.

No brainer, especially now we've broken up.

 

[Pantani]

Taken the first three weeks off work. Nothing gets in my way for the World Cup. I will watch every game, be drunk and/or stoned for three solid weeks and will come out of the whole thing about a stone heavier.

:yahoo::dance:

 

[dannyboy]

this is what some site reckons our route will be, we better win the group

Castrol FIFA World Cup South Africa

 

[janee]

Got to work from 2pm - 9.30pm on 23rd and can't change it!!!

 

[Dr Q]

Will be at Silverstone for the MotoGP the day of the England v Algeria Game, and the F1 the day of the Final. They have already stated there will be a big screen showing the final, and I assume the Algeria game will get the same treatment.

Other than that, I'll only be watching a few of the other non-England games anyway.

 

[Mr. Jolly]

3rd of July is a Saturday

 

[Easy 10]

If we come 2nd in the group
27/6/10 - Sunday - England in 2nd round - 16.00 local time
3/7/10 - Wednesday - England in Quarter final - 16.00 local time
7/7/10 - Wednesday - England in Semi final - 20.30 local time

You've made a right old HASH of this Brettles.

3/7/10 is a SATURDAY not a WEDNESDAY.
Had to check mind. I was SURE we didn't have a QF game scheduled for a Wednesday afternoon. The only game during 'office hours' in the whole tournament for us, whether we come 1st or 2nd in the group, is the group game against Slovenia.

 

[SeagullRic]

Auntie has arranged her 40th party on the day of our first game. Thankfully I will be able to retire to my Grans house in disgrace (at not putting family over football) to watch us socceroo the Americans.

Our baby is due on the 28th of June so slap bang in the middle of the world cup. Could be getting close to the final if he's late though, 2 weeks overdue is 12th July so the 11th could very nervous if England make the final and he's still not been born.
