Its on BS isn't it? As well as the normal NHK channels sometimes I think. It just doesnt seem too exciting after the Cup

I'd like it if it were true, lets just see if they can pull this one off hey before getting too excited.

Good point lama. When I said that it was a "fairly decent number" I was comparing that to a ridiculously low number that they might have come up with. At least $1 is a % of the total budget, admittedly not that much for Ferrari. Dock the points and disqualify the Chin for 6 years, I reckon

I didn't know that NoFakie, thanks. Maybe time for a change.

Beckam admitted he wasnt 100% when he got home, but he does have worth even in a less than 100% condition. Other people who deserve a mention are Ferdinand, who was well ace, and yes the Nigerian and the US keepers. Great keeping. The big thing for the England team now is who will replace Seaman, if indeed its necessary before Euro 2004? And when are they gonna give a certain Joe Cole some chance to show his stuff?

Docomo. I used to have a mail address but started getting 10 junk deai site mails an hour so I have given up on that. It was a load of rubbish anyway.

I agree with you there NoFakie for the most part. Especially on the "it could have been better" concerning the quality of the football. I loved it, but there werent really any heavy duty classics, or any spectacular teams. Still cant believe its over.

Well it's all over now folks for another 4 years. What a month it's been, I've had a reet blast and it'll be sad to not have footy on the box much from now on. All in all, I thought it was a very entertaining tournament. Sad to see some of the powerhouses go out so early, but they just didn't seem to deserve to stay on.

Glad to see Brazil win. So it's all over now. Life will feel kinda empty again for a while

...And didn't you know that Japanese snow is different from any other gaijin-land snow?

Dick Tracy, now there's a bad movie.

Was just wondering about this the other day when my Japanese friend was talking about the cost of education here. Does it cost a fortune to send kids to school here?

The odds of getting it wrong now are down to 50%. Yipee! Let's go for Germany then > (because I want Brazil to win) Hope its a decent match worthy of the occasion

Oh do tell us more helen2, we are transfixed with your words of wisdom!

Sounds like you're having fun down there camel. Pity theres zero chance of me checkin it out

..ain't much cop Got it yesterday, and not impressed. (should've known with a bunch of mancs) [This message has been edited by scouser (edited 28 June 2002).]

The "alternative" nationality thread.

Were the 80s really the worst offenders. I kind of have a soft spot for the 80s! The 70s were well worse.

I didn't know there was one....

At least its a fairly decent number, not just $10000 or something stoopid like that.

Pointless but....as above

Lordy dordy!

What can I say, got any free tickets mate? What's the snow like down there?

Who would have thought that 5 weeks ago? Even more than that, who would have thought the playoff for 3rd would be between South Korea and Turkey?
