'insert Swear Word Here' Ridiculous

[royfromaus]

Already 3 major wrong decisions from world cup officials. (Mexico have had 2 perfectly good goals disallowed)

When are video replays going to be introduced to football?

I'm very despondent with it already and it is only day 2

[royfromaus]

England game on TV, Italy game on ipad.....Italy down to 10 men with a dubious straight red.

[jeffa]

And here comes that nice Mr Gerrard. Wonder what difference that'll make?

[ChillDoubt]

Give the England fans a chance to wave him goodbye, it's only fair.
For anyone interested, the Italy v Uruguay match has failed dismally to live up to expectation, it's dire.

[jeffa]

I agree, CD. I started off watching that one but switched over after about 20 minutes.

[ChillDoubt]

Suarez attempts a headbutt, misses, the Italian claims he tried to bite him.
Same old, same old.

[royfromaus]

Suarez should walk here .........but doesn't.

[jeffa]

Ah those Latin hotheads :-)

[royfromaus]

For Funks Sake

[ChillDoubt]

And Godin scores for the South Americans!
Italy will not progress if it stas like this. 10 minutes left.

[ChillDoubt]

Italy throwing the lavello della cucina at it now, is it too late?

[jeffa]

LOL! Molto bene :-)

[ChillDoubt]

I'll be honest jeffa, I had to look it up on Google translate.....

[jeffa]

Ah, all my illusions shattered!

[royfromaus]

Well at least we went out with a ................................. whimper.

[jeffa]

Well, that was rubbish! England couldn't score on the scoringest day of the year with an automatic scoring machine.

People are talking about how Hodgson is using this as preparation for Euro 2016. Based on the dismal performances in Brazil, nothing leads me to believe that they'll even qualify...

[ChillDoubt]

Arrivederci Azzurri. Wonder what the odds on that were when the group draw was made?

[ChillDoubt]

Which country is Euro 2016 being held in?

[jeffa]

France.

[royfromaus]

France

[royfromaus]

I think we will do it despite Roy.
