Bloody Hell!!

So now it get interesting!!

:o

Last minute of half time, practically both teams in the box, TT takes shot, Robinson might have well been off at the pub considering his positioning, practically deadon the line, legs and arms flying everywhere and Terry kicks it clear RIGHT at the last second.

:wacko:

That was CLOSE!!! TOO close!!!

England doesn't look that good, and Beckham should never try to cross with his left foot.

Rooney should be coming on soon.

T&T are great fighters.

The founding of the bulk of the world's nation states post 1914 is based on self-defined nationalisms. The bulk of those national movements involve territory that was ethnically mixed. The foundation of many of those nation states involved population movements in the aftermath. When the only one that is repeatedly held up as unjust and unjustifiable is the Zionist project, the term anti-semitism may very well be appropriate. - P*D

Yeah, I've seen a couple knuckle balls.

Back to the game - why would Beckham waste his talents on a short corner?

Sven wasn't listening to me, but I emailed him and said he should have started Rooney ( get the early goal, and then defend).

Can't say I've noticed it, but yes, there's been a lot of complaining about it, and I'm sure there will be more as the tournament goes on. It's a perfect scapegoat. :P

I bought a cheapo replica version, 'cause how often do you get a soccer ball with your name on it? :cool:

Good grief it's tedious but I'm trying to watch it :/

How people get so wrapped up in watching this stuff and why these players get paid thousands a week, I just don't know :shrug:

Ah they scored :)

Big, lanky Crouch got one in and now the commentators seem to have forgotten just how awful and uninspiring their performance has been so far. They're saying Crouch "scores with robotic regularity"... :rolleyes:

Yeah, Crouch made up for that horrible hack at the ball towards the end of the first half.
[edit] didn't know they scored a second. I'm following on the Internet now.

I can just about guarantee Sven is not going to say that to the guys in the locker room.
So who would you rather play in the 2nd round - Ecuador or Germany?
