Just wondering how many of you will be missing the game through the constraints of employment....

Working, but projector setup in office. Guaranteed 30mb connection.

Rest of school have 70mb.

Got to pick my little girl up at 3.45pm. Half an hour away from work.

Rubbish.

Kick off's at 8PM here, I'l have my feet up on my desk watching a stream.

Thanks for reminding me to check the kick-off time, fantastic excuse to start drinking earlier than usual.

Home. The notion of watching it with work colleagues fills me with dread, it would make me want to channel my inner-Larry David.



But, you know, c'mon England.

Pah!

I was in secondary school during France '98 and we had an double-English lesson scheduled during England vs. Tunisia. Luckily our teacher applied common sense and ushered us in to the assembly hall where approx 50% of the school watched it on the big screen.

Apparently, it was purely down to whether the teachers wanted to watch it or not as there was plenty of space. The other 50% were not so lucky.

Bradon gave us the morning off for the England v Brazil game in 2002 as they figured everyone would be ill otherwise so they'd be better off getting people in at lunchtime...

I watched that one in Chippenham college.

They should consider themselves lucky that their furniture was bolted to the floor - FURIOUS.

Self-employed contractor. Losing £400 I won't get back to ensure I see the game in the pub.

I sure hope the England team will match my commitment to the cause..

School have decided that rather than try and put all kids in the hall, they have to remain in department with a teacher who is happy to watch it. Which leaves me with a handful of Y10s to watch the game with. Be better all in one place but could be worse.

I'm on gardening leave which means I'll be enjoying the match either at home or at the local.

It's also my birthday so an England win would be lovely.
