For those of us who have to go to school 5 days a week during the World Cup, I have provided this handy guide to the matches we'll be able to watch (without bunking off school, which could, really, be a good idea) as, the matches in S Korea/Japan, because of the time difference, start in the morning at 7.30am, and go onto the latest kick off time of 12.30pm (afternoon)!...here goes.

It's so unfair. The world cup should really be postponed until all the exams are over, at the end of June or so.

Hopefully, I'll be able to see pretty much all of the games. I've only got about 5 exams somewhere around the start of June.

fingers crossed

At our school, we've got a sort of answer to our problems, I'm just simply going to bring my wee tiny tv into skool, and also my personal stereo. I'll listen to the 7.30 match on the bus in the way into skool, i'll listen to the 10.00 match in class, and i'll watch the 12.30 match at lunchtime, it probably wont work but its worth trying anyway!
By da way, I don't tink that schools in N.Ireland get off for dat whitsun week or whatever you call it, I think the only day we get off is for the Queens jubille thing...
