So yeah, like, it’s that time again. The World Cup or something. And whilst neither Mr.Shopkeeper nor Mrs.Shopkeeper can explain the offside rule, there is a sense of pride in the fact that Iran are once again through to the final contest. SO by way of showing our support, here’s a wee gallery showing what football means to the average Iranian. Well, actually it’s just a small collection of really really good footie photos.
The Iranian games are:
- Iran v. Nigeria, on Monday 16th June at 8pm (this will be interesting considering our shop is in Peckham…)
- Iran v. Argentina, on Saturday 21st June at 5pm
- Iran v. Bosnia and Herzegovina, on Wednesday 25th June at 5pm
We ain’t got a telly in the shop, but you’re welcome to swing by for festive nibbles and drinks.
May the best eleven men win…
