I spoke to someone yesterday who went to school with Lucas Neill.

Guess what...Lucas Neill HATES WOGS

If I ever see him Im gonna throw an egg in his fucking face.

What do you think of your boyfriend now Minka?

If you think I will believe a word you say, than you are seriously more stuid that I gave you credit for.

And while you sit here and make up a bunch of bitter bullshit because I have embraced Australia and therefore was happy to see Audtralia progress to the next count and your little dick cant take it.

Next.

P.S - Zlatan has someone gotten us tickets for Argentina vs Germany, England vs Portugal and the Semi finals. Don't think we can get final tickets though. Have fun being a soutpuss Robbie.

Sorry dude I don't find it to be harsh. They go further than Spain and lost to them 4-0 in the first game. How does that argument not mean anything, it highlights it for me. Oh shit they beat the Saudis 4-0. Wow how did they do that? Just give them the world cup, they obviously deserve it. I mean the saudis! Wow!

Don't get me wrong, Fair game to them, you can only beat what's put in front of you...BUT i still find it a shame for a team such as the Dutch or Spaniards who had to come up against Big teams. It's a fair call that has been echoed throughout the world.

2 things

1. The ref was clearly biased in the Spain-Ukraine game - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massimo_Busacca - a total cunt in fact who probably gave spain 2 goals

2. Spain only managed 1-0 against the Saudis

Therefore assumptions are just that -

Portugal are not exactly 'depleted' as such. The only 2 unavailable players are Deco and Costinha. Granted Deco is the backbone of our side, but Costinha is easily replaced by Tiago or Petit. Our biggest worry is having to play a cautious game in order to avoid yellow cards.

Has anyne heard news on Ronaldo? I think that he will play but I don't know if he is fully fit.

 

[DRAGONZ]

Germany vs ARGENTINA --- 1 - 2

ITALY vs Ukraine --- 1 - 0

PORTUGAL vs England --- 1 - 0

BRAZIL vs France --- 1 - 0

Yeah, 'The Away Game' was pretty good. Neill lives on a farm by the looks of it. They captured pretty good moments there, especially with the front-page of the newspaper with Craig Johnston, wanted by no less than England's top nine clubs. Brilliant. Haha, and Kalac goes: '..well now that I see Peter Crouch playing striker, I'm thinking I'll probably end my career as a striker too'. There's hope for us all yet.

Hopefully the Germans and the Argies don't do the QFs sparring stuff, and play their normal game at breakneck speed. Also, I reckon the winner of this match will win the Cup. If not, see Brasil.

C'mon Argentina.

 

[_dhj_]

Nah FIFA's instruction this time is to help big sides rather than to help the home side.

 

[matt#1]

@ Politik...have some faith. The World Cup only comes around every 4 years...and the Argies are in great form. I will be placing a big bet on Portugal to win tomorrow night.

 

[Paragon]

Wooh, Tevez to start alongside Crespo.

 

[_dhj_]

indeed

 

[bazookajoe]

Well Saviola hasn't exactly been brilliant as of late

 

[Paragon]

He did shine in the very early parts of his career, 18/19 I think. Then he joined Barca. and went downhill pretty much.

 

[bazookajoe]

Same German team that dominated against Sweden, this should be a fantastic match.

 

[_dhj_]

bit like aimar, except more of a nobody nowadays

I'm pretty hyped up for this after TWO whole days off from watching the World Cup... I'm sure many of you guys feel the same . The game that I really can't wait for though is Portugal v England. Brasil v France should be interesting too, but I am going to boycott the Italy v Ukraine game in protest. Also because I don't think that it will be a particularly interesting game and I have to get up reasonably early.
