World Cup UK Viewing Times

more like USA 1 Iran 3 (game abandoned after 89 minutes due to invasion of pitch)

They'll claim they won after 5 minutes and then blow up the opposition manager.

Be arsed with that. The winners have probably already been decided by fifa and the betting companies and there will be "comfort breaks" for advertising because its the US, breaking up play.

Not interested any more.

They are doing water breaks during games because of the conditions in certain areas of all 3 countries, that’s just normal

Wasn't it polythene bags of water at 20 minutes into each half at usa 94?

3 minute water breaks at 15, 30, 60 and 75 minutes is going to mean some seriously longer games, what with all the surrounding the referee and phantom decapitations. Enforcing this 10 second FK and sub business is going to mean some mither on top of that as well.

I wonder how game stoppages will weigh up vs your average NFL game. Maybe the us way of doing things has finally triumphed, and that's why the tit in charge is gearing himself up for crowing about his success after all.

It'll be the best half time. No one will have seen a half time like it.

What time do the Ireland games kick off?

What time do the Ireland games kick off?

Same time as the Wales games.

Thought it was just one break per half? Still over the top if you ask me.

Has a shot clock like NBA been suggested yet? If not, it'll be right soon...
