All niggles will be forgotten once it all begins. The BBC News follow their usual format of visiting and presenting the worst of all these places. Remember at the European equivalent a couple of years back the BBC went mad on the negative prior to a ball being kicked. Even Panorama was promising us that Nazi thugs would ruin it...nothing happened at all and it was a huge success. This one will be...or should be.. hopefully.
There was a great cartoon in one of the papers yesterday..saw it on TV last night.
It shows the England team going down the steps of the aircraft after it has landed for their first match, and the pilot reaches over, slides open his window and asks in all sincerity..
"Hey lads do you want me to keep the engines running.."
