** How Long Till They Mention England? **

[miracle 7,790]

The rules are simple: Simply predict how long it will take the commentators to mention England after kickoff in today's South Africa vs Mexico game.

Acceptable references are:

* The England Team or any squad member

* Fabio Capello

* The Premiership, references to players playing in the Premiership, or transfer targets for Premiership teams.

* Excuses, e.g. altitude, the ball etc

* "For all of you watching back home in England"

* Previous matches

* WAGs

EDIT -

How could I forget!

* 1966

Within the first 5 minutes,then i hope they speak about it the full match just to piss everyone off

1:01 - 1:30 (2-1)

Who the fuck cares?

For all the moaning that folk do, it seems to me that the majority that do complain are obsessed with England themselves!!

EDIT - 3/2 should really be 6/4

It's just a bit of a laugh mate.

My money is on 0:00 - 0:30 (Evens). I think this being ITV they will be less inclined to attempt to hide their bias than the BBC commentators who will probably hold out till 1:00 - 1:30.

[mrmytto 220]

I'd go for within 36 seconds.

They will say "England of course kicking of tomorrow."

as soon as the programme starts it will be, welcome to south africa and the world cup 2010 were we are all hoping that Engerland go all the way, fuck the nazis.

[BRITNEY IS NOT FEELING IT 8,293]

2:31-3:00 Mins , I'll have £20 on that ,cheers ( Think they'll be mentioned in someway regarding the weather or the ball )

[MasterD 7,435]

0.00-0.30

[Gid 46]

Over 3 mins.

The BBC are far worse.

Motsons the biggest offender.

[miracle 7,790]

And we're off!

[miracle 7,790]

00:47 Wembley mentioned

[ClintonGrey 365]

Pathetic.

[Davy 68]

Imagine English people mentioning the England football team! How dare they!

@ Clinton

[Jonnyboyrfc 296]

Today's game was about South Africa. Mentioning england

The media put me off so much it's unbelievable

[ClintonGrey 365]

@ Clinton

Sorry, but I have had enough of utterly stupid Scottish people who apparently don't like a country talking about themselves.

[Gid 46]

I just wonder how Clinton would feel of the shoe was on the other foot.

If he had to listen to pro Scotland stuff every time he turned on the tv I'm sure he wouldn't be too chuffed.

@ Clinton

It's the sheer amount they talk about them though. They will relate everything and anything back to england.

We were watching a special moment today which was all about Africa and all about South Africa in particular. nobody gives a shit about england in that situation!

I wanted england to do well at first but see to be honest, I'd love to see the USA fucking hump them tomorrow.

*edit*

Screw it, I'm not arguing.

All I will point out is that countries tend to talk about their own teams and if you think that is bad/hate people over it then you are an utter idiot.

Well that's where you're wrong mate.

ITV and the BritishBC are representing Britain and not just England.

Unfortunately England are the only British side in South Africa though...
