Well done England
the Liverpool duo made the game
-
and the back of the keepers head :D , totally undeserved scoreline tho, the swiss should have got a goal or two :shock:
-
Has Rooney moved to Liverpool now Tony?
:D :D

It's just been reported that one of the French football players has failed a
drugs and alcohol test (Monday) after the match. If this is confirmed as
positive, under World Football Federation rules, paragraph 6 sub section 2e,
France will forfeit their 3 points and they'll be appointed to their
opponents, England. Scroll down for the full transcript of this report.
Carlsberg don't send emails, but if they did, they'd probably be the best
emails in the world!
Sorry Ed
-
The french result was even better 2-2 against Croatia.
Means the group leadership is still up for grabs all three can still qualify, France, England and Croatia.
The scoreline totally flattered England, who again did'nt play well. Are they going to do a past Germany, play rubbish throughout the tournment and win it :?:
They will again have to play better to beat Croatia, although a draw may do, but they need to go into the match to win otherwise they will get beat.
-
WOW, what a game and what a result :D
Two great goals from Rooney, class act.
Well done boys, Portugal on Thursday evening next :D
-
you mean we have to put up with this for another week ?
Nooooo!
-
Well the final is not until another two weekends off yet, but the amount of games on tele after this week will decrease if that's any comfort to you :lol:
-
no comfort at all, they should either ban the smegging sport or give it the same amount of coverage as any other sport. That is to say "none at all"
-
Hey just think when the footie is over you can then cheer on Tim :lol:
Or take a picnic basket and go down to Wimbledon and camp out on Henman Hill :lol:
-
I was about to ask why I should have to wait till the end of the footie to give muddy some encouragement :)
-
Who else got this today then? :lol:
-
Got it twice at work and twice at home :lol:
-
"Better Smeg than Dead"
Better anything than that toupe
=D>
-
What :?:
-
Cant wait till the next match :D
I take it you'll be glued to the TVset Daz :!:
CMON ENGLAND :!:
-
I wish I'd put a bet on Sweden Denmark ending 2-2.
They more than likely stopped taking bets on the score of that game.
For those that don't watch the football. If Sweden and Denmark drew 2-2 then Italy (even with a win) couldn't qualify from their group.
Sweden were losing 2-1 when they scored to make it 2-2 with seconds to go.
Italy scored seconds later against Bulgaria to go 2-1 up.
The faces were a picture of delight when they scored and total devestation 10 seconds later when they found out Sweden had scored and Italy were out of the Championships.
Priceless

:lol: :lol: :lol:
GERMANY OUT :lol: :lol: :lol:
-
what a shame!
:cry: :cry:
not! :wink:
-
I can barely contain my excitement .........
*yawn*
it's bad enough I have to put up with this sort of rubbish at work :|
-
With the Jarmans out the way it looks like France v England in the final looks to be on the cards still.
Ed
-
Why on earth do you bother replying then if your not interested, I don't understand :?
Come on ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONEY :lol: :lol: :lol:
I see in the newspapers that Chelsea have offered Steven Gerrard £120,000 a week for his services next season, just to cheers you up Daz :lol:
And that's not mentioning what Rooney will be offered to leave Everton.
-
well, the reason's I reply are sort of three fold.
1) As your friendly local moderator I tend to read all of the post to mud-club just to make sure you lot are playing by the rules.
2) Unlike certain places (work) you lot don't tend to call me a mutant simply because I don't like football. Granted you call me a mutant for other reasons instead but hey ho...
3) You can't get away from the blooming stuff, it's on *every* newspaper, website, tv channel etc etc #-o
-
2) Unlike certain places (work) you lot don't tend to call me a mutant simply because I don't like football.
Join the mutant club Daz. :-({|= I don't understand these people who don't understand the saying "there's more to life than football" or the other one that *they* tend to struggle with: "it's only a game" and a funny old one at that. :lol: Why can't the wrc get the same sort of tv coverage? Lifes not fair.
-
COME ON ENGLAND.
-
Daz
and there was me thinking that Petrovich was named after a former yugoslav player.!!
CMON ENGLAND
-
I've got the Boddingtons lined up.
Bill Shankly summed it up.
Football isn't life and death!
It's much more than that.
Although. Would I rather watch the World cup or go off roading.........?
I couldn't possibly choose!
Ed
-
Nice one Ed :wink:
-
Not exactly a good night for people who don't like Sport...
two channels of tennis and one of footie...
it's all a load of balls to me :P :roll:
-
Oh come on Daz, get a few beers in, settle down in front of the tele and cheers on the lads :lol: :lol: :lol:
Where's your passion, pride, nationality.
Go on get into the spirit of the ocassion, although don't post asking us all to explain the off-side rule :lol:
-
Be wary Daz.
You will be assimilated.
Seriously though everyone must have something they enjoy beside Off roading, wimmin, computers etc.
Personally I enjoy virtually every spectator sport from creeket (a la Geoff Boycott), Touring car, formula 1 (getting boring though these days I remember when they used to actually race each other), Footy, rugby (only the international stuff though). I used to love going to Speedway, stock car and Banger car racing.
I suppose footy becomes more interesting if/when you can recognise the skill and that there's more to it than kicking a pigs bladder round a field.
Ed
-
I'm just not a fan of spectator sports, playing them is one thing, but just watching people is boring to me regardless of whether it involves skill or not.
Besides, when we only have four channels why are we required to have three of them occupied with sport? especially when two of them are the same stuffing sport
-
hmmm whats this?!...................spied in a rainy supporters car park near Lisbon! :wink:
-
You'll have to get assimilated by $ky Daz.
Spoilt for choice then. Some of it just different cr@p.
The Documentary channels are worth it though.
Ed
-
used to have sky, gave up on it when I moved house
-
:lol: :lol: :lol: Nice one Dave :wink:
One word sums up tonight
Robbed :evil:
-
England lost :( :evil:
The Ref has just been given a house in portgale
-
I'm no football fan but I'm burning my cuckoo clock this instant.
-
I meant to ask you Andy, can I come to work with you & watch the waste gloss paint congeal 'cause there's nothing but b*@dy f**tball on TV
And they're mostly talking about it at work & that's the (female) Nurses!, let alone the patients & Paramedics
So please...let me come & watch the paint dry (far more interesting)
I understand that 'thicko Beckham' & the English gang has lost, wonder how many of the 'false-patriots' will still be flying flags tomorrow
-
Anyone know where I can get a Portugal Flag :cry:
-
Ooh Richard harsh words there :(
OK not everyones cup of tea, fair enough.
But surely it's good that the recent events in Portugal have united the country so much, thousands watching in cities across the country on big screens, millions more at home.
We should'nt be too quick to knock or mock such national pride and unity.
Or is that only set aside for millions of people dying in WAR :?:
-

And now they've lost thousands of people will be getting drunk, fighting in the pubs - kicking the metaphorical '7Bells' out of each other & generally making other people suffer (walking home at 02:00 shouting & bawling)
Glad I'm not at work tonight - finished at 22:00, but back at 05:30
Then...... 4days off :D :D
Bro-in-law asked me if I'm going to the 'Rhino Rally' at Tong.
If he gets me a guest-pass, as his mates on the gate I might go
-
Well there is a small minority that might, and there is no excuse for it, but on the whole most fans behave themselves.
-
the trouble is that whilst they might have been united for the last two weeks they'll immediately revert to the same people they were before it all started, at best it's incredibly fickle.
what really bothers me is that everyone at work is going to be in a really really bad mood, they're going to be tempremental, argumentative and likely spend all day discussing how they were "robbed" on IRC. So, basically they're gonna do sod all work. Yet *somehow* this is acceptable because we lost a football game? It's not like a relative has just died, it's only a game. You don't see me moping around the office yelling "we was robbed" everytime I lose a trial, or get stuck at the weekend.
If you're not prepared to lose, you shouldn't even play.
(this is all IMHO of course, and in some ways an over generalisation, but hey ho as it were. I guess I just don't understand the hysteria :? )
-
anyhooo...
I'm going to keep quiet now, because whilst I don't understand the hysteria some people will be a little upset by this, and I don't want to antagonise them further :cry:
-
Come on richard, of course the flags will still be flying for weeks, the instructions didn't include on how to remove them
:lol: :lol:
kev
-
Counted virtually none on the way to work - however yesterday you couldn't see for the stupid things.
Told you it was false patriotism. So when are we going to see that ineffectual loser Beckham burned at the goal post?
-
Time & channel please I'll set the video :twisted: :twisted:
-
Not seen one flag this morning on cars, even thos on houses have been taken down. :P
-
I think my father came out with a good one yesterday, he said they couldn't support a pair of trousers
:D :D :D
-
My flags (yes, plural) are still on. Just because we lost (robbed) doesn't mean I'm less proud of my team.
-
England were knocked out of the cup by the Swiss.
It might as well have been Mike Myers refereeing the match.
He didn't have a clue. The Portuguese defender crippled Rooney and the ref gives a free kick to Portugal.
The goal that wasn't a goal. Well...
The Ref will never need to buy a meal in Portugal again after last night.
Fancy letting him know your opinion?

I HATE FOOTBALL
DM
[editors note: edited for the kiddies, but I'm not going to remove the post as I agree with the sentiment. DM, I owe you a pint for expressing my feelings :) - Datalas ]
-
hmm, I wonder if I can get the ports closed so they ( or the supporters ) can't get back into the country?
Come on... tell me in three hundred words or less *how* we're not better off without 'em :twisted:
-
Thank's Daz i drink Scotch
DM :)
-

Totally agree, well said.
One comfort tonight though the FRENCH are OUT :lol: :lol: :lol:
-
That's the Dutch out as well.
Portugal Vs the Czechs in the final.
Ed
-
What a bummer :evil:
Thought the Dutch would do it myself.
Agree Czech's in the final as well and will probably win it, best team I've seen whole tournment.
On another note sorry Tim Henman went crashing out of Wimbledon today totally out classed :(
-
Saw the first set and Tim seemed to be on the verge of breaking his serve but each time the Croatian managed to hold his serve and after that it was downhill as Henman was outclassed.
The will to win didn't seem to be there.
I had to smile at Annabel Croft as a pundit on the BBC. What has she ever won other than Treasure Hunt?
Ed
-
Argh! I've spent the day at Wimbledon, in a server room. I baint be a happy chicken :(
If I find out who decided to send me there on a day with Henman on court *and* a tube strike.....
-
So with England now home (and almost forgotton) and Tim out what next do we have to look forward too :?:
Olympics anyone :?:
-
The birthday bash, what else :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Just Big Brother evictions :D
-
You have my sympathy Neil. It must have been hot or are they air conditioned.
To Andy,
Don't worry the qualifiers for the World Cup 2006 start soon and the beginning of the football season.
Come on Arsenal...
Ed

OOOH Great, more football, just what the doctor didn't order. :-& :-&
-
I think I'll give up on the predictions.
No one in their right mind would have put money on Greece to win tonight.
Well Greece beat Portugal in the first match of the tournament and they'll play each other in the final.
How strange is that.
Ed
-
Arsenal, you been drinking again Ed :lol:
Mine you we do a football sheet at work, basically you have to predict how the season will go and who will win what. One of the questions is to name the first Prem team to beat the Gunners and judging by last season don't really know who that will be :shock:
Funny how the host nation and the Olympic host nation are both in the final :?
Tough team the greeks and Portugal have raised there game somewhat so should be a good final.
-
For my sins I am a Forest fan really. I must have done something really bad.............
It lessens the blow if Portugal go on to win so I won't put the kiss of death on them. Yet.............
