Wyot	Oh yes I would definitely rather be around drunk rugby or cricket crowds than football. A few fans get so idiotically tribal. But I still love the sport; I separate the two.

Was it a case of following some clever plan set in advance and not watching and responding to what was actually happening on the pitch? I haven't watched one second of the World Cup. However I tell you a pointless story Wyot. When I owned a pub in the 1990's. I had to watch the football. (it's a good idea show live sport in a pub) I had nice monitor in the pub, the monitor had was surrounded with tables and chairs. It was like a little man-cave for blokes in the pub. This was when Rudd Gullit, was manager for Chelsea. I remember him watching make daft substitutions in the last minute or 30 seconds almost every game he was manager. I remember the Chelsea fans swearing and hollering at his managerial tactics. One man threw beer at the monitor, then I barred him. It was worse when Glenn Hoddle was manager for me. Chelsea fans were more aggressive to my monitor and pint glasses. I had never issue when I showed the snooker or some Test cricket. Rugby fans would shake hands with with other rugby fans who supported other teams, they would congratulate one another or buy drinks for the losing fans.

Wyot	We have always had a problem thinking we are better than we are. We are a decent side (at times) but not top of the pile. It has been an OK tournament for us. Now love to see Morocco in the final and Messi lift the World Cup. Interesting that none of the media predictions about behaviour and culture clashes has come about...
