Soda Jerk Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 Watching the Top Goals of World Cups since 82 on the BBC website reminded me of how great Bob Wilson was as a commentator. He wasn't just a football man either. He was a worldwind of knowledge for just about anything competitive. Top man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gus Chamber Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 he was a great keeper just had a moment of madness!Pretty exotic perm as well if my memory serves.Bloody hell, it was so nuts it even trumps the memory of Dave Narey's precision wonder strike which the keeper had a cheek even diving for (Scottish version) or jammy haggis toe-poke which deserved no credit whatsoever (English version) against Brazil.o_O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't just a football man either. He was a worldwind of knowledge for just about anything competitive. Top man.till he went to ITV and went utter balls.. same thing happened to Des Lynam and now its happening to Adrian Chiles. Do these greedy people not learn nothing from history?? Go to ITV you may earn more money but you will become shit overnight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted June 6, 2010 Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 Drogba, Essien, Mikel and Ballack all injured. Best wrap Lampard and the two Coles up in cotton wool before they become part of the Chelsea Injury Conspiracy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paranoid Android Posted June 6, 2010 Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 I really hope Drogba and Robben are fit to play. It would be very sad if they are missing from the tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted June 6, 2010 Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 I never realised Prince William was the President of the Football Association. What the fuck? How? What the fuck does he know? Fuck all. I bet he pulled out all kinds of bribery for that job. If we don't win the World Cup, I blame him, and he should be sacked. I'll probably blame all my problems with football on him from now on. Don't like that new pink Everton away shirt. Death to Prince Billy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain America Posted June 7, 2010 Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 Created a league on the official FIFA fantasy football site for those of you interested. League code is 382043-105456. I already had a team from the works fantasy league so you can just join this one as well if you're in a similar boat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain America Posted June 7, 2010 Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 There's a sky sports one going already in General Discussion.Yeah, I'm going to join that one as well. But I imagine a few people might already be on this anyway like me and on having a scan of the rules I think the official one is the best.

Captain America Posted June 7, 2010 Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 Anyone listen to any of the final England friendly?I hope the South Africans stop using those little horn thigns they are constantly using in this match, it sounds like a constant swarm of bees. So annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted June 7, 2010 Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 It was the same at the Confederations Cup. It's gastly noise. Absolutely horrible. Worse than those things you spin round and they make that clicking sound.Then again, is it better or worse than the 'Barmy Army' playing the A Team theme tune at England games?

delboy Posted June 7, 2010 Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 I think those horns are a tradition out there so we shall have to get used to it I'm afraid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 I hate those fanny air horns you hear when Scotland are playing away in Estonia or the Faroe Isles or somewhere like that. A full 90 minutes of "hhhhhhhhnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn".Annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 That'll teach the smug little shit to stick to classic celebrations, like the Fabrizio Ravanelli shirt-over-head routine. Even then, he'd probably manage to suffocate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monster Zero Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 Rooney's been mouthing off at refs already apparently. Hope he gets himself sent off in every game he plays. How many games do you get binned for these days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 Sky Sports News threw me off. They said all the coverage starts on Thursday. I think that means they'll just be pottering about, zooming in to images of players getting out of coaches and whatnot.Bah. I thought I was less than 24 hours away from FOOTBALL FEVER!

They just love to swear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboy Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 i been writing a world cup preview and concluded it will be a brazil v argentina final with mexico and denmark suprise packages and both making the quarters, france to squeeze through their group and get dumped in the second round and england to make the semis only to be shat on by brazil...so now you know not what to put your money on betting wise!
