So you supposition is that 100% of non-game lovers also want to know
about FIFA World Cup 2010? I'd like to see your figures on this. I
presume this is based on an opinion poll. What was the sample size?
When and where were the questions asked? How do we know it wasn't a
push-poll? Cite your sources!

Wrong. I have exactly no interest whatsoever in watching 22 overpaid morons
punting a pigs bladder round a field while millions of other morons watch.

I thought I was one of a minority who didn't watch it (although
I caught about 20 seconds worth when I stopped off at a motorway
service station on the M6).

However, it seems the viewing figures were only around 20M, so
I'm actually part of the 40M+ majority who didn't watch it.

I managed to miss the previous one too, whilst I was driving up
the A1(M). In that case, the roads did seem to empty for the
duration of the match.

It was good shopping when the footie was on,
nice empty streets,
shame the last match was on a sunday!

Didn't watch it either, was out with No.1 Daughter shopping. Plenty
of places open in city centres on a Sunday, though for some odd
reason many were closing at 1500 instead of their published times of
1600 or 1700 this Sunday.

I have seen the only important five (if that) seconds of the
England/Germany match. FIFA really have to have a very serious look
at bringing in GLT and if they don't have some *very*, *very*, good
reasons not to not the some what suprious can't wait for every
decision to be scrutinsed, destroys flow of the game, etc that I have
seen.

With 20M watching I wonder how big the half and full time power
demand spikes were?

Dead interesting for your average geek.

The turbines were heated to cherry red (over 500 C) as one unit once
"finished" (as opposed to cast/assembled) to ensure they wouldn't fall
apart when spun up.

They must have used a fairly large kiln and a fair supply of off-peak
from Wylfa too.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember (Andrew
Gabriel) saying something like:

This WC seems to be much more pervasive than previous events. In past
years, I sometimes barely knew it was being held, such was the ease of
avoiding it.
What bugs me is the blithe assumption by the footie-heads in the
channels that their effing sport is so important that every bugger must
put up with regular programmes being bumped.
Stuff them.

yeah. Cricket is much more fun.

The backchat in the commentary booth from the radio 5 live lot is far
better than anything on the pitch.
