The World Cup. Yes, it is. Fantastic to be able to watch football on tap basically! Sometimes the interesting games end up to be the ones involving the most random countries. But what of these random countries? How could you find out a bit more about their political, socio-economic, and any other situation? Here’s how.

A great accompaniment to the great festival of football. Will try not to let it dominate my life for the next month… but be great to see if the likes of Spain and Ukraine who hold so much promise can perform. Also great to laugh at the FIFA rankings as teams that are allegedly part of the Top 10 in the world, get gubbed by most of Europe!

Game to play. See how long it takes ITV (other channels are available, thank goodness) to mention England or ’66 – no matter what the game is.
