Don’t be a misery

Yes all those things you mentioned are true

But there will also be (in no particular order):

Some heroic underdogs

A precocious kid or three you’ve never heard of, playing with no fear and lighting the place up

Some epic goals

Some epic cock ups

Geopolitical hilarity in some shape or form

New ideas, new tactics, new stars

Old stars giving it their all for a last hurrah (step forward Sir Harry)

Shoot out drama

Thunderbastard freekicks

Crowds of entertaining foreign fans (the Dutch doing their dance, some hot Scandis)

And above all, the frenzied faint hope that will never, never die that this time … it’s COMING HOME

I absolutely love the World Cup
