Driving through Ohio. Towns like this are why we’re trying to avoid the interstates and take the slower roads instead. These are the kinds of places we want to see. This feels like peak America.🇺🇸
I’m no Clark fan
I’d rather someone else won
But I think the crowd behaviour towards him today is appalling
Shouting out “choke”, “get in the bunker” and cheering missed putts etc is out of order
It’s something usually only reserved for USA Ryder Cups
It really needs to be stamped out imo
Genuinely the best thing that can happen to American soccer culture is to lean in to what makes us unique with our college football culture opposed to doing our version of European soccer culture
College gameday style atmospheres is a great start
Our 10 days in the Midwest come to a close. Now we move on to Texas for the next part of our great US World Cup Road Trip 🇺🇸
Things I’ve learnt along the way:
- Your weather is not to be messed with
- Your sunsets are stunning
- Your beer is fantastic
- Your barbecue is delicious
- Your scenery is beautiful
- Folk have STRONG opinions on barbecue and gas prices
- Biscuits and gravy are definitely
NOT scones and mushrooms
But above all… the people are amazing, true salt of the earth folk and remind me of back home in Yorkshire (a high compliment)
Thank you Midwesterners 🤍
