I need to put it out there first: I hate the weekends that are scheduled as international breaks and I hate international friendly breaks even more. I also have no idea who is responsible for the scheduling of these snoozefests (I know, England beat Germany but do the Germans give a [Poor language removed] about friendlies?) but this weekend has really got on my double Ds (I lied - I'm more of a "this way up" gal, when it comes to chest size but the metaphor doesn't work so well with Bs!)
Why the fume? It is Easter, most people are off work for an extended weekend and....no Premier League or Championship football to watch. Ideal opportunity to maybe take in an away game without thinking about travelling, having to go to work the next day, take the kids....you know, the fan stuff that we like to do. But it was not to be. But hey, England are playing at Wembley. We could go and watch that. It's still Bank Holiday, having a fixture at Easter might let the Northern hordes get to London and back in a day and watch the national team. But the fixture is on Tuesday night, when everybody has gone back to work, the Northerners will have to stay home or take two days off work. Who organises these things?!
