It would make much more sense if people staggered when they put the kettle on. If EVERYONE did it half way through the first half they might still conclude that everyone watching needed a cuppa at that point. Anyway, most people dring a pint or Pimms or something long and cool during fottie games.

No, that would't work.  it needs a surge.  They wouldn't be able to conclude anything, that's the point. 


Loulou, how do you boil your water for hot drinks if you haven't got a kettle?

Surely a power surge at half time in a major football match would be expected?

YOU MISREAD MY POST.

When England play in the quarter finals put your kettle on half way through the first half.  This way the pollsters wont know what people have been watching as their will be a surge on the National grid for no reason.  Get all your friends to do the same.  Hee hee.

It takes a lot more energy to heat a pan of water then a kettle.

Oh for f**k's sake.  That's the point of the thread. If we do it and get all our friends and their friends to switch on at the same time it will scupper the poll.

I find a pan of water boils quite quickly on the gas stove.
