Well, there's only one way to find out.  Probably be tied to a partial refund scheme, so people will go back and hand in empty bottles or cups for monneh.

The players walk out in staggered fashion one by one with their names belted out by some shrieking announcer, rather than altogether at once.

I used to go see the NFL in London and the teams would take it in turns to run out in single file to music and other related nonsense.  Something like that?Â

My son and I are going to Boston for 5 days to see the England vs Ghana match, and I wondered if anyone has any recommendations for sports bars to watch other matches while we're there, or if there's any must-see places to visit during our stay?  On 04/06/2026 at 08:31, VLC86 said: I’m over for this one as well. No idea on sports bars but as far as things to do in Boston, so far I’ve got…  Freedom trail walk- it’s mapped on the pavement and guides you around key historical areas/buildings.  Whale watching tours- booked onto one of these and it’s about €70 I think which in the grand scheme of things isn’t too bad for the states.  Salem is a short train ride away. You’ve got Quicy (I think) market which looks like it’s got a decent variety of food.  I’m there from Tuesday night so I can let you know. The fan zone might be a good place to watch a game but you need to pre register to get in and even then it’s first come first serve. I’m watching USA’s first game in there, terrified of the ultras after seeing the videos this week. I don't live in Boston, but have a friend that does and went on a bit of a lads long weekend last year.  Don't know where you are staying but we stayed in Seaport which I think is a pretty recently developed area, there was plenty of bars/restaurants from memory but from what I'm led to believe it's not particularly 'authentic' Boston.  Had a night in the South End, which on a Friday was pretty lively, mixed crowd, seemed to be plenty of places to eat and drink with most seemingly having screens.  Also did an evening in the North End, this seemed to be more laid back with lots of Italian restaurants and then cocktail and wine bars. Probably not what you are looing for.  Would recommend trying to get over to Fenway, if you can get to a Red Sox game do it, even if you're not into baseball. Quite a cool place to spend an afternoon/evening, even if the Red Sox are atrocious at home at the moment. Bit of a younger crowd, but a load of sports bars as I am sure you can imagine.  I'm sure someone who knows Boston better than me will chime in, but thought I'd give you my 2 pennies worth. Enjoy, I thought it was a great city! 1

They have done it for the F1 and the drivers all look like they want to ground to swallow them up. Edited 5 June by skolfoxes
davieG Posted 5 June Posted 5 June The teams should walk out separately so you can boo one and cheer the other. 1

Footballwipe Posted 5 June Posted 5 June If the cameramen are going to keep doing what they usually do and walk past all of the players at the anthems they're gonna need to get a sprint on for England if we've got all 26 out thereÂ
