Title: A Beginner's Guide To 2018

The Russians love a big event - especially as they don't get many - and while the country still has a lot to do to prepare for the tournament, organising a World Cup is unlikely to prove beyond them - these are, after all, the people that put the first man into space.

KKOB - looks very impressive but in the past they seem to forget or overlook the basics??

The pitches are usually a disgrace - even with 4 years to prepare but there again - grass is a difficult thing to manage!!

However I 'll bet they set new records for black market tickets :D



Know what I mean guv'nor ;)

Apologies - no need to explain to the football purists amongst us but for others:

I was referring to the state of the pitch for the Champions League final - not to worry  ;)
