st_martin_aToday in England at 3:00 every town will become a ghost town; there will be no traffic on the roads and all you will be able to hear every now and again is a cheer followed by a song which has the words - "it's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming, football's coming home!"
Big match - we lose - we're out. We win - it will be the furthest we've got in the World Cup since ...1990 I believe. And this is the first time the big 3 (Argentina, Brazil and Germany) haven't got to the semis.
I'll leave you with this, which probably won't work for many of you but if you understand British culture it might make you laugh.
