It's not the first time since '66 that England have been in a European/World football final. Happened in '84 and more recently '09. Where were the clamours for a big screen and/or an extra bank holiday then? Oh wait, that's because those were the women's team....

Liverpool Street station, Leicester Square and the streets surrounding Wembley. Kings Cross had to be evacuated this morning as a flare set off the fire alarms.... i'm sure we don't want to see this happening here. Today I have seen videos of idiots smashing up Leicester Square, a man taking court snorting cocaine in Trafalgar Square, and to top it off, some idiot stood on a car outside a PC World (presumably the one near Wembley), completely naked, waving his very small penis around in front of a crowd of people. If the OP wants all of this on his doorstep, fair play to him. Dread to think what will happen (win or lose) to things like Italian restaurants.

To be fair women's football is way less popular than men's so that's not really surprising. However, the clamour for a big screen may simply be because of the horrible year we've had and people want to get behind the country's team and blow off some steam?
