Yep, they certainly were annoying
but. . . . .
Not as annoying as my Fat, 35 year old house mate who has one of his own and blew it every 5 mins when i was trying to work!!!

After several years of waning interest in football I was really quite excited about this WC until I watched that pile of shite perporting to be a football match between France and Uraguay, I think I'd rather watch Liverpool play Liverpool than have to watch another of those, Linekers remark about the noise actually being vuvuzela and not snoring was apt.
It made me laugh listening to a Radio 4 bulletin on the way home yesterday. Lots of excited hype about the opening ceremony, then the newsreader said the opening match was a 1-all draw. You could actually hear the anticlimax in her voice.
Is it me or are the media making MUCH more of a fuss about the WC this time around? I can't even remember the last one. Was it in Germany?

I would rather sit and listen to those stupid swams of bee / wasp noises than watch the footy after watching England v USA today!
Totally shocking, we have no chance playing like that! Although apparently we drew 1-1 in the first match in 1966 and obviously went on to win it so maybe............

Was listening to Radio 4 (as one does 
) they were saying the quality of international football has largely become 2nd rate compared to domestic league football. The people being interviewed thought if one of the premier clubs put their team forward, they would probably win the world cup. It seems when you start cherry picking players who don't always play together they just can't gel as a team.
Anyway, I come from Wales so "ABE" eah?!

If anything it's the best/richest club teams cherry picking the best from the world, that's why they would be better than any international team :wink:
I can't believe there's so many none football fans. Football is my life (literally), though I do often think occasions like this must be heaven on the roads for those with these mental health issues :lol:

In my experience (International matches aside) petrolheads/ motorsport fans are less likely to be real football fans and vice versa - there are always exceptions to this, but it's my experience : wonder why this is??
Ha,ha. I had to drive the 20 mins from mine to the Mrs place yesterday during half time.
The roads were DEAD. Like driving in a ghost town. I saw 3 seperate groups of bikers giving it big rips. Saw an Old School Lotus that was giving it some serious metal ( i mean instantly lose your licence for a long long time speeds), and a Porsche coming the other way that looked like he was driving with some spirit.
So yes it looked like a playground but i always playu it safe as im sure the Five-O are well aware people will take advantage.
