Yuki's Passion 1 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 football. Check. Footie. Check. So whats the difference between English footie and Aussie footie? Theyre both footie right? Do have to admit I really enjoy watching Aussie footie more !! Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 now the real mind bender is that Aussie Footie is different depending on which state you come from! Link to post Share on other sites
bobby12 0 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 1-0 Chile, wow another great game packed with excitement and goals, and everyone not spamming the ball over from 30 yards every 5 mins. crappest...world cup...ever... ban the horns and the ball! Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Good point here though "Whilst it would have been nice to have had a few great games by now and some more goals, It's not time to start writing this world cup off yet. The great World cups are mainly remembered for the knockout stages and I'd rather have the best teams playing averagely at this point and keeping their powder dry than the false dawn of say 2002 which started brilliantly before dipping to be the worst tournament since 1990. There are some potentially epic knockout games on the cards. I'm already stoked for Argentina v Germany. Or it could be rubbish all the way through." Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 What I find funny, is that the for the period between the last World cup and this one, so many players get deified and vilified, and in the end, we are expected to get behind whichever country we are from and these players represent.

I really don't comprede'. But if it's England or something like it, then of course, England will lose. They are shit. And they should stop pretending not to be. Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Spain 0 - Swiss 1 A game that that Spanish just didn't deserve to win, too much dicking about on the ball. Why Fabregas didn't play, considering he has scored more goals than Xavi, Iniesta, Alonso all season. Go Figure. South Africa 0 - Uruguay 3 A much better game from the Uruguayans and South Africas, and a potential goal of the tournament from Forlan, a screamer from at least 25 yards out.

The media vilify players, such as in England's case, Terry, Ashley Cole, Ferdinand, and then when a world cup comes around, tries to emphasise the point about them being English and supporting out team. Look at Green's 'error' against the USA, the newspapers jumped on him, and tried to blame it all on him. Bloody hate British/English media. Spanish is just as bad too.

Yuki's Passion 1 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I cant stand those things...it sounds like its a giant wasp nest or something. Itd be nice to be able to hear the fans cheering! I only watched the Chile game. They pretty much dominated it, but it was fun to watch. Hisashiburi ni drank an Ebisu Link to post Share on other sites

brit-gob 9 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Brazil only scraping past N Korea and Spain being beaten. Surprise results so far by an excellent Swiss defence. Interest level still down there though. There needs to be some World Cup babe photos in here. Link to post Share on other sites

bobby12 0 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Yes, the tone of this thread would tell an outside observer all they need to know about how "thrilling" this world cup has been so far. On the bright side, at least it won't be held in South Africa again in my lifetime. Link to post Share on other sites
