So, where are you watching it.

As a one off, special dispensation, my lot are generous enough to offer the following:

If you make up the time, on the day of the match, by working early, missing lunch and staying late, you can watch the match in the conference room, being streamed from BBC sport on a lap top, shown through a projector.

Wow.

Anyone caught watching/following the game on their own pc will face disciplinary action.

I love this. So I am effectively watching in my own time, but cannot go over the road to the pub to watch it on a decent screen.

Think I might give it a miss.

I'll be watching it on t'internet at work whilst 'working hard on spreadsheets' and sh!t.

Will finish just in time to leave for home. Hopefully I'll be smiling rather than smashing my steering wheel to pieces.

It hasn't been broached with the Boss yet, but I'm not confident of being able to go over the pub and watch (especially since I'm on holiday for two weeks starting friday :D).

Probably just flick the Beeb website up every now and then to see what's going on and catch the highlights (if they're worth watching) Wednesday night.

TV's have been installed in the restaurant but if you want to watch you have to make up the time or take a half-day flexi or holiday. As it is I'm taking tomorrow off for a society day at Brickendon Grange so neither is an option.

you are not supposed to watch on your pc but can't anyway as the IT gestapo block streams and have done for some time. I might be able to get a bbc live update, but do I want to be that depressed?

I am off to Scotland later for a few days golfing so will watch it with our Northern friends which could get interesting


Very interesting when Slovenia win,it will be an experience. :D

You can show them what it's like to compete in a World Cup finals. You'll probably have to explain the concept to them, they've not been to one for a while...

Trying to get a lesson booked to sort the shanks out (if I can't figure it myself). Got a half day flexi so leave work at 12.15 - train and cab to the club, lesson for 1.45 and back in the bar by 2.50. Out on the range by half-time when we're 2-0 down

We are projecting the computer stream onto a wall at work so everyone can watch. No need to work extra hours but people are asked to take a shorter lunch break out of courtesy.

I've had an absolute touch!!! I'm working from home on Wednesday as the car needs a service.

I'll be able to sit down, in the comfort of my own home and watch our wonder players dance past the oppo and into the next round... :p

I am not going to watch it as I am playing 36 holes at The Berkshire. Even if I wasn't, I probably wouldn't watch it as I would rather be working that sit through another 90 minutes watching overpaid pampered chavs disgrace the national shirt again.

John Terry is the epitomy of what is wrong with England today!

I agree with Snelly.

I walked away from the TV screen after 10mins of the 2nd half on Friday, it was absolute disgraceful performance for the most inept bunch of over-inflated and over-paid group of t@sspots.

I wont be watching England tomorrow, and to be quite frank, couldnt give a t@ss if they get knocked out, as they simply arent as good as they would like to think they are.

However, Ive seen some good football from other nations, which is just as well.

Well I'll be watching, and will continue to do so 'til the end.I quite agree that they haven't performed to their best, but as an England supporter I'm not going to give up on them.

After the World Cup has finished is the time for the inquest to begin, not now.

Patriotic Golfmmad! :D
