I'M JINXED DURING THIS WORLD CUP!

It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.

I'M JINXED DURING THIS WORLD CUP!

Post by merson_is_god »

First of all, I was at Download Festival last weekend and missed every game LIVE but caught the highlights most nights.

Returned on Mionday night and somehow, including working, going out with my girlfriend, making lunch, sleeping through or going down to the pub ONLY SEEN ONE GOAL DURING THIS TOURNAMENT!

:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

The goal was North Koreas only goal against Brazil!

The first half of Greece vs Nigeria sums it up.

Saw Nigeria's goal, I go to the toilet and miss the Greek equaliser!!

So I've doubled my tally for the tournament but missed yet another goal!

I'm off to the travel agents in town now to organise a holiday then drop into my local to catch the last 30 minutes.

Prediction that it will finish 3-2 and I will miss the goals!

:lol: Nice one ****!

I saw the winner for Greece and the evening game I missed both goals! The England game swhould be the first match I see in its entirety for the first time this World Cup tonight but I'll try my best to catch the second game of today as I finish work at 2.30! I'm taking my Czech girlfriend to the pub tonight to watch the match and she's going to have to wear one of my old England shirts!

How was Download Festival???

Who played at it this year?

Any videos I've seen of previous years look brilliant, I'd love to go to it.

Nice weather too, don't have to worry about heat/sunburn over there! :lol:

Download was great, went with work but we left early on Sunday as it shat down with rain and we left halfway through Motorhead :(

AC/DC were phenomenal on the Friday night and Slash played some great stuff, Paradise City and Sweet Child O Mine! Brilliant stuff!

The atmosphere is great and the people there are lovely! Bit weird but you can have a decent chat with them.

Go next year mate, you'll love it!

Haha I'd love to, but don't think I'd be able to get there next year. Bit of a way to travel. :lol:

If I'm going that far some Arsenal matches would have to be part of my trip too.

There's plenty of good music for me to see here, its just festivals in 35-40 degree temperatures are quite the battle for survival. :oops:
