Crowds to pack live sites

Crowds to pack live sites :

"'It is 1am in the morning, so it is not an unreasonable time for too many people,' Mr Pandazopoulos said.

'What we want is families to come out and party and enjoy,' he said."

Adelaide is hoping for a big screen. While the other cities have a big public venue, we have the plasma TVs at the top of the Mall. Better than nothing, and pubs have been hoping to get a licence for Tuesday because the pub venues around town are mostly family friendly. Others will rug up indoors at home and enjoy! The truth is , we are better than some of the poorer countries who are desperate to see the World Cup and whose little children would value it so much more than we do and we are having a great time. We have spared those countries a thought. I know my little sponsored child would just love to see all of this because he plays football after school and after his chores for the family. In any case, it has caught our imagination. It has set the world on fire with something to be positively passionate about and it has shown just how easy it is to connect us all with a common interest. As one of the Socceroos said...we'll let the football do the talking.
