              Hi Pompeyman,

              I can't sleep either - annoying! Good on you for starting the SMART meetings, that's great. They seem very few and far between in Britain - and mostly in Scotland. Good luck with it!

              Oh, and I hate to break it to you, but it's NOT going to be year (first sign of penalties and we're outta there) :H

                    Good for you Pompyman, best of luck with it, I hope it works for you.

                    Marshy this is the first time I can remember Eng not expecting to win so who knows it could just be your year, been a long time since 66.

                      Yes, there's a definite lack of hype so far, although the Sun newspaper has the slogan "Maybe, just maybe". :H :H

                        Good for you, Pompey,
                        We'll be following your journey. I'd love to hear more about the SMART program.


                        As for England, perhaps we can get a friendly Japanese player to score the goals for us. I can be contacted via the shed during all England games (I can't bear to watch)
                        It could be worse, I could be filing.

                          Hi Pompeyman - just wondered how you're getting on AF.

                          I'm looking forward to the football; it'll be my first sober World Cup!
