Yes, yes, I know. That story. I will get to it.
In the meantime how do you build excitement for an event that is happening six time zones away and you are not surrounded by anyone else who is talking about it? You go on twitter and read about what the England supporters are doing: those in Malta already and others counting the days. The fans in Malta have found the two main areas to congregate: Qawra and St. Julians. The latter seems to be the more popular: "bars do something like 60 shots for £20", "Clubs are bars everywhere round here!"
Hotel names exchanged, meeting points arranged and the flags are
flying. I've seen Blackpool, West Bromwich Albion and Merstham FC.
Merstham. yes. Formed in 1892, currently play in the Bostik League
Premier Division.
And to really set the scene: "England everywhere in Malta right now! Absolute scenes."
To counter the English support I came across a Maltese fan's tweet with a picture of the 4000 flags ready to be handed out to the South End Core supporters. He's pumped. He's ready, for #MltvsUK. I guess he's just getting ready for Malta's match against Scotland on Monday. Tweets for two matches in one. Save some characters. Just bring on the whole of the UK.
Tomorrow, I need to find some videos. Maybe I'll get some help....maybe?
