“We want Donald Trump walking ‘round the pitch” isn’t it? 😎

Helmut Schön was born in 1915 in what was then the 'Deutsches Reich', the German Empire.
His place of birth was Leipzig, which was part of the GDR (East Germany) when he won the World Cup with West Germany.

German born, with a West German passport foreign?

It’s about as much as I can manage to type how apathetic I am to this tournament.

If Wales had have qualified, I would have probably gone to the games out of a feeling of duty rather than excitement.

I will have the games on in the background no doubt and will probably get some interest if England lose, though I think they might do it this time.

The ‘build up’ to the World Cup isn’t doing much for me but I’m putting that down to being an old, miserable, cynical baastard.

I’m hoping I come round when the knockout matches start. I’ve had a nose at the group games and quite honestly they look boring as fuuck.

Fingers crossed something gets the tournament going, a decent assassination attempt on Trump or Vance could do that and not the half arsed efforts we’ve had previously?

The interesting thing about Mexico’s schedule is that if they win their group then they are on course to play the winner of England’s group in the last 16 in Mexico City. Thats an early banana skin facing Tuchel that could result in a beautiful media melt down.
