I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but I think it might be a ridiculous idea.

The Wimbeldon crowds would suggest they don't mind other sports on while the World Cup is in progress.

The color of immortality, nature and envy - you are truly a unique person. While clearly the color of nature, you also symbolize rebirth, fertility and hope in the world. On the other side of the spectrum, a natural aptitude to money with green coming to signify money and possibly even *********!

I wonder if there'd be so many there if England had been playing at 4 today...

I remember in the last World Cup they put up giant TV screens at the Tests when Sri Lanka toured England where people could step out and watch some of the World Cup and still see the cricket if something really interesting happens?

Did anything this time around in England?

Doubt it - I was at OT for the Denmark game in 2002 and watched it.

By 2004 the Portugal game was scheduled for the same time as the NZ day-nighter (which was then rained off) - but my mate had some friends who worked there and they'd been told they couldn't show it because of health and safety.
