The Slovenia Problem

by floyd__streete » 09 Jun 2010 14:57

Has everyone got a quick getaway from work sorted for the 23rd? 1600hrs kick off is not ideal for us blue collars, happily the gaffer here has had a rare moment of enlightenment and allowed me to leave at 3pm.

I was in the same situation during the 2002 World Cup when my boss allowed me to leave at 730pm for the Brazil 1/4 final.

Unless you work next to a pub showing the game then you'll miss it, as kick off is 3pm

I'm not sure Floyd's solution is going to work that well as the Slovenia game kicks off at 1500 BST

I think that the time difference complication changes this from a "problem" to a "conundrum".
