The "I no like footaball, I go drive" roadtrip thread!

So for all ye that have no interest in that sport, how about hitting the empty roads one evening when there's an England match on? I know nothing about the World cup, when the matches are, how many etc, but if there's a saturday evening kick off it could leave us with plenty of very empty tarmac for a few hours. Think there was a world cup in summer 04 which meant some much quicker commutes home along the entire M27 during the England matches - perfect! No thoughts yet on routes, just putting idea up as a starter...

Hey thats not a bad idea! Like your way of thnking! Allthough doesn;t it mean the filth will be ut on force trying to catch drunk drivers after the game? Gives us er..... er however long a game of football is to have some fun

There's a link to the timetable - http://cdn.worldcupblog.org/wc_wall.pdf, pretty helpful
Our group matches are;
Today (12/06) @ 20:30
18/06 @ 14:30
23/06 @ 16:00

You can count on the games lasting at least 2 hours. Dont know if half time is longer in the world cup.
Added bonus, the quarters fall on 02-03/07 which are the first 2 days of FOS

EFA: Kick off times are an hour earlier than posted, SA are 1 hour ahead.
