Who Will Fly to the World Cup

[doubledolphins]

Well done England.Fantastic diversion from all the doom and gloom this afternoon!Will this mean a bonanza for UK Long Haul Charter Airlines next summer? Or will BA bring a few redundant 747 Clasics back into service for the masses of happy supporters wanting to fly to Japan and Korea. Come to think of it an England shirt might be regarded as a dangerous artical by security by then so perhaps no one will go. Will there be masive redudancies at Lufthansa as a result of today's events!

I know the situation is somewhat different; ie the 'fans' being largely family and more willing to pay for the privilige of supporting their offspring; but I believe most traffic to the Sydney Olympics was by scheduled carrier. At least the current US fear of flying will not affect numbers. I presume that the national carriers will keep most of the inter match travel

I didn't know there was going to be a Rugby World Cup next year. How time flies.... :D

[COWPAT]

Rugby?

Thats a game played by men with funny shaped balls isn"t it?

Jetblast here we come!

[Hooking Fell]

You're right, Meadow Muffin....

It's the game played by men.

;)

[COWPAT]

Yes, quite agree with you as far as you go. You just missed the bit about "with funny shaped balls."

Actually, with a few exceptions, Stevie Gerrard, Roy Keane, Stuart Pearce etc, most modern soccer players do look as though they would be more at home in ballet school.

Meadow Muffin eh" I LIKE IT, Can I use it please?

Rgds

Meadow Muffin aka COWPAT

I thought you'd appreciate something more delicate-sounding than COWPAT :D and Yes, you may use it!

Anyway, there's nothing more perverted than a round ball :rolleyes:
