hansum Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 What about that too? Why DOES the second place team get the extra days rest?? That's crap too... Theyve got to fit in 64 games in 30 days what the <deleted> do you want them to do, youre unbelievable in your hating of the English, up there with President Umbongo. Now at first i gave you a chance when you said you knew a bit about football but some of the drivel youve come out with shows you really havent got a clue. PS If English football is so bad then why is the English Premier League the most popular in the world, and please dont say its because of foreigners as the top teams have always played good on the ground football and their trophy haul in the last 50 years of European football shows this.

WarpSpeed Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Well hopefully now the dandy has his own thread we can go on to discuss how great England are,and not have any interference from third world footballing nations concerning bad refereeing decisions and how the whole world has a vendetta against them! First you have to beat the third world nations, then you can talk trash. My apologies i forgot you beat us 1-1 with a wondergoal Perhaps if the English were aware that goalkeeper is an actual position on the team, you wouldn't have these recurring problems with your keepers. Against the USA, Mighty England had 90 minutes to score again and couldn't. Then went scoreless another 90+ against 3rd world Algeria. All in all England - with Golden Boot contender Rooney - went over 3.5 hours without scoring another goal, an achievement that few teams have reached this WC. Good luck against the Krauts though. I wouldn't be surprised if you put together another wild 5-0 victory like a few years back. Your millionaires are due and now is the time to collect. :clap2: So absolutely true!!

Yes English teams arent aware of how important a keeper is thanks for the advice. with Golden Boot contender Rooney - Have you seen Rooneys scoring rate for England prior to the WC ... thought not as if you did you wouldnt have come out with your Golden Boot contender line.

Theyve got to fit in 64 games in 30 days what the <deleted> do you want them to do. Really??? Was I referring to the first round of games you fool?? In this round it is most certainly possible to have all corresponding group games on the same day so as to have first and second place teams playing in all cases without any rest advantages given. As for the rest of your post it is just more mindless English bluster and defensiveness my dislike for Brits is based on empirical experience both in playing with and the hypocritical and contradictory responses of the lot of you just like what've you just posted...

carmine Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 (edited) Here's an idea. Lets change the name to soccer. We'll have moving goal posts, video replays, we'll even split the match into four quarters spreading over four or five hours. We'll change the rule book where you're not happy, you can pick your own referee, state which day you wish to play your match. Anything else? Joking apart, football is run/administered the way it is. Every team, player coach know the way it is before the tournament so why cry over perceeved injustices that can befall any team.

rixalex Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Understanding and appreciating the difference between banter and unpleasant abusiveness is clearly hard for some. For those people my tip is, if you are trash talking another team it's usually all well and good, especially if you inject a bit of humour into the trash. If on the other hand you are trash talking another fan, it's usually considered flaming, especially if you find yourself stooping to name-calling. Hope that helps...

Where's that baby sucking the dummy icon again?? :violin: couldn't find it so this'll have to do... Why keep coming out with this am i not allowed to have a different opinion line, no one has said this or even implied it, but some of the rubbish youre spouting is incomprehendible .. and your hatred towards the English is clear to see so why not go away and spout your genius on other topics and let the rest of us argue/debate etc without having to read your nonsense.

Not allowing other people to have a different opinion has consistently been precisely your attitude. Take a look back at your contribution to the discussion about Green and you comments about anyone who felt he needed to be dropped. Consider also whose opinion turned out to be shared by Mr Capello.

Down side is though that with James the longer he goes without a calamity, the sooner you know one is coming along.

spongeman Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 I would rather see Germany vs England than Slovenia vs Germany, so thats good. However Germany came out of a very tough group, and that will stand to them. I still do not think Engerlund are playing well enough to win. 2-0 I would guess.
