As the dust of the World Cup settles, I can't help but think of the storm cloud that FIFA created themselves and how, as a football fan, disappointed I feel.

Looking for anything positive today? Come on in and take a seat. I reflect on the game and take an optimistic look on things.

I talk through the England Norway game, talk about my love of Jude, get annoyed at the British media, and get excited about Argentina.

That is much much much more like it. England play out an all time classic world cup game and defeat all odds making history at the same time. I'm so damn proud.

Through to the last 16! But that won't come without a lot of ranting and raving. Despite it all I look for the positives to hold onto. Bring on Mexico.

The only way is up right? I'm feeling frustrated but I promise I'm still optimistic too. The last 32 and beyond awaits.

Everything's going to be ok. I promise. I'm here as your safety net from any negative thinking after the 0-0 draw with Ghana. And I discuss Ronaldo with another hot take.

I'm happy. I'm very happy. But I'm also boringly realistic too. I discuss all my thoughts and feelings about our first game of the world cup and more hot takes with one small apology too.
