Hannover rest day in Germany

We're as bored as Daniele DeRossi's boot-cleaner here at blog HQ as we're left to boil in our own soup for the second day in a row.

To keep things ticking over here's some photos of Kev at the France vs Togo game last week:





























Henry thinking about his next dive


Also, a plea to our readers: we need a venue for the England game on Saturday. It needs to have a good atmosphere, big screen(s), be unpretentious (a proper pub preferably) and be within easy reach of central London. Any ideas would be gratefully appreciated in the form of a comment.

Expect a little more excitement from us tomorrow as we attempt some Klose contact with the Germans.

Until then,

Pooch

How many Kev's are there on this pub crawl? Seems to me like everyone is called Kev - there's this one pictured here at the match, the one in the profiles, and even a mention of Kev "Flamin' eck" Wilson back in the early days.
Are you all actually called Kev?!
 
To get the ball rolling, pubs that have been recommended so far include:
a) The Three Tuns (?) on Goodge St
b) One of the nice traditional (non-corporate) pubs in Greenwich
 
Yea - I couldn't remember what it was called so I thought I'd leave it to you.

Also, the one I referred to on Goodge St is in fact called The One Tun.
 
I'm pretty much against places that sell tickets. It's taking football away from the fans.

Most of the foreign venues we've been to have allocated seats on a first-come, first-served basis and I think that's the way to go.

I suspect that most of these places where tickets are allocated are full of people that don't actually understand the game.

We were going to do an editorial along these lines but we can' be bothered to write so may words.
 
> Pooch, are you including stadiums
> in your anti-ticket stance?

Yes, football clubs with stadiums that allocate tickets are indeed taking football away from the people.

From now on I'm only going to watch football in parks, backstreets or quarries.
