To be honest, wasn’t very interested then, less now 
I used to be a football addict and for a while was watching 80/90 games a season, probably clocked up 2000+ until we moved here but have only been to a handful since. Don’t really miss it but would like to go to another WC as the atmosphere is something else.

Hate football so won’t be watching any matches, as always, in any sports the best team will win
Had it been Rugby I probably would have been glued to the screen, and unless it’s France or England playing then I just enjoy the action and don’t really support any team

I was in Germany for the 2006 Workd Cup and was in Gelsenkirchen to see Portugal knock out England. It was interesting in a way but I can’t say that I found the atmosphere special.

I took my sons aged 10 and 13 to the WC in Germany, five games in five days, 3000 kms of driving, a week off work and school (College said yes, Primaire said no), met up with a Ukranian guy I knew in Berlin who gave the boys some scarves which they still have, fan zones, lots of beer - worst week of my life!

Supporting Scotland - only question is, are they playing? If not, then France. More of a rugby girl really, but currently in Adelaide, and watched the first half of the Australia v France March with Aussie son-in -law, most football in have watched in my life! Happy to not watch any more…

Scotland didn’t make it to the World Cup sadly.
Best stick to the golf, rugby and curling then!
Have fun all you football fans…

I have a very modest interest in all football, very modest indeed. I can’t raise any enthusiasm for the World Cup, or any of the teams, though I did follow the women’s team (Les bleues) in the recent European Cup tournament, and enjoyed their game, and their undoubted glamour.
I reckon football is over-rated. I remember when our local teams, Aston Villa, the “Baggies” (West Bromwich Albion) and the Blues (Birmingham City) were made up of local men, with local accents. Localism is long since dead.
Those of us who don’t follow football keep our heads down, it’s not a popular position these days.

Oh Stella, you’ve just confirmed what I’ve always thought, women know nothing about football.
