Well the 2-0 win over Trinidad & Tobago was hardly the resounding success that we all thought it was going to be. Average play throughout most of the game and then about 10 minutes at the end where it actually got interesting.
It's a bit sad if we have to rely on Wayne Rooney to win a game comfortably. And the next game against Sweden is likely to be the hardest in our group....
.... plus with Sweden's win against Paraguay we need to beat Sweden or at least draw with them to avoid meeting Germany in the second round. It's going to be nail-biting on Tuesday I think.
On the positive side I got absolutely leathered last night at Via Fossa and met 6 new people, which was great fun - although I've had a few random messages today on my phone, which makes me wonder what I was saying!!!

Shame on Latvia
The Latvian parliament has recently passed laws banning gay-marriage there and ministers have described being gay as a sin! Latvia is a signatory to the European Convention on Human Rights and the EU should take measures against that country to force them to bring their laws in line with the rest of the EU.
Coming on the same day that two guys are jailed in London for the homophobic murder of a 24 year old lad in London 10 months ago, it's no wonder that these sort of problems exist when parts of the political establishment believe being gay is inherently wrong.
Being gay is not something people choose to be... if it was a choice, people would choose to be straight every time.
Shame on Latvia for stirring up homophobia.
