2014 FIFA World Cup

[TCO]

Had no idea Vanden Borre was in the squad, that's brilliant. Always had a soft spot for him since LMA Manager 2005 where if you nabbed him and Kompany at the start, your back four was gold for the next 15 years.

Well I guess I better stop watching Soccer now

Those were the days. Saha was immense back then too.

On the ITV 4 thing, I've had sound breaks every now and then in the few games I've watched on there. Figured it was my Sky signal messing up. Hasn't happened on ITV itself though.

I'm sad that the USA got Belgium in the 2nd round. I have a longstanding bet with a friend that the Belgians would make the quarter finals so I can't cheer USA on even though I really want to.

[GoGo Yubari]

It's okay. In your heart you believe in freedom.

Also holy shit, I actually get to sleep in today. This is a relief.

[Plubby]

IMPORTANT UPDATE: The United States of America are no longer undefeated.

BUT WHO FUCKING GIVES A SHIT, WE MADE IT OUT OF THE FUCKING GROUP OF DEATH

...Shut up, that wasn't the group of death. You can't play yourselves.

Re; Suarez: Can we ask FIFA to also ban Nerf from posting for four months?

[METALMAN]

That was such a dull game! I actually supported the USA on this occasion, largely because I was with 7 Germans and two Americans. I saw supporting the US as the best opportunity to be as annoying as possible to as many people as possible. >_>

They let me down.

[Lineker]

Chiellini has said that Suarez's punishment was excessive.

wut?

[Ant]

Dan turns into a Diva when he is hungry

Suarez turns into a cunt

Surely in cases like this, seeing a psychologist/psychiatrist should be mandatory?

[stokeriño]

God I love RAWK sometimes.

****ing cheek of FIFA messing around with a club with 5 European Cups.

The cheek of it!

where does FIFA's jurisdiction end?

Where indeed?

[Gazz]

Mars?

That would be a great rule.

'Upon a club winning their fifth European Champions League title, the club shall be exempt from all FIFA laws up to and including the premeditated murder of opposition players during a game. Said club shall also start every game with six goals and fifteen players on the field'.

[stokeriño]

Mars?

Blatter is way ahead of you.

That £20 on a WC being set in Antarctica is looking pretty good right about now

[Gazz]

Oh brilliant, Steven Gerrardotron 3000 pinging around pointless 4000 yard passes into touch in zero gravity.

[Thrilla]

Fox in the box.

[Gazz]

That one from 4cm out in 2010 was a top class finish.
