It's easy to be cynical about a book written by an American history professor which starts out
describing the events of July 9, 2006. Oh shit, you think to yourself, it's John Doyle
with a doctorate; another football outsider thinking his fresh set of eyes can derive some
deeper social meaning from "The Beautiful Game" which the rest of us have somehow missed all these
years.
A few early videos this Friday to get us in the mood for this afternoon's World Cup quarter
final.
Much as I've enjoyed a lot of the football I'm still feeling that the 2010 World Cup hasn't really
caught fire on the pitch.
Maybe Brazil v Holland is the game to do it.
I'm finding it difficult to see who can beat Brazil and how they can be beaten.
