What a surprise (NOT):

England’s Harry Kane may abandon ‘OneLove’ armband over booking fear

Harry Kane must decide whether to wear the ‘OneLove’ rainbow captain’s armband against Iran amid fears the gesture could earn an instant booking

He should wear one on each arm to see if he gets sent off

No armbands, poppies, knees, silences anywhere other than direct football related would be my preference.

Commentator mentioning "a spectacular opening ceremony."

The BBC was too busy lecturing us instead of showing it.

Was bit pissed we never seen it

Well that was shit. A team massively out of their depth against a semi-competent side that treated it like a warm up game. The Qatari obvious United fans leaving in droves at halftime when their own team are in their first ever world cup game was embarrassing, noticed all the fifa official cameras had the angles firmly tilted down to hide it.

Imagine what it'll be like a week into the competition and those third often meaningless games are coming up when the one game you'd expect to be rammrd is mostly empty after 60 minutes. Seen more excitement from the nations league games.

Don't be. It was shit and weird. The highlight was a strange little fucker with no legs walking around on his hands talking to Morgan Freeman.

Was the strange little fucker Morgan Freeman’s Granddaughter that he’s sleeping with?

Can't shake the feeling that something abominable is going to happen at this World Cup that'll be remembered forever.

Well it certainly wasn't the quality of the opening game !
