Meenzer 14042 Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 I'll be watching as many games as I'm allowed to. Does anyone know which squads are particularly attractive? That may help my case... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Kirkey 0 Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 I'll probably watch more than last time, it should be good football and the kick off times are a lot more convenient than they were in Japan/Korea in 2002. Two per day will be my limit though, I think watching three games in 24 hours is a bit of a stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodgate27 0 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 You all should feel sorry for us antipodes. 11pm, 2am and 5am kickoffs. The Australia-Brazil match is on at 2am in the middle of winter. God help those poor bastards that go to public squares to watch. 142589[/snapback] Fuck that woody my boy, what about us poor Australians that are going and yet you can't get a ticket out of those bastids at the FFA for love nor money! Go Koreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeea! 142591[/snapback] That's exactly why I decided against going and trying to get a ticket there, and bought a widescreen tv instead. I'm using the change from the TV (about 2 grand) to go to Japan in August. Still would have liked to have gone to Germany but I'll get to South Africa if we qualify.

Zathras 234 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Seeing as every single goddam game is on while I'm at work, I'll have to be selective and avoid the 'net to watch certain games on my own very special tape delay. I liked it better when the games kicked off at 3:00 AM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had one more draw for tickets which they said they would notify people by the 31 May. 7pm I'm getting ready to leave work and no tickets, so pissed off I compose a terse email expressing my disappointment, sent it to the email address they tell you not to send things to (but it is active anyway). Next morning come to work open the mail box and !!!! tickets to see the Brasil and Croatia matches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm doing a project on it at the moment, a lot of people who try it find it works for them despite it usually being a last resort. And I'll be watching as many games as possible.
