The World Cup

[SwissBlade]

State our armed forces are in she could go over in a pedalo and take the island using only a board with a nail in it…

I think the Falklands would be fine with pedalo Belgrano coming towards it.

Dancing on the tables tonight singing “if you don’t jump you’re English” she put the argie flag on my chair and I had to remind her the last time the argies did that on English territory it didn’t end well

In fairness I cheered all the argie goals and only wanted extra time to knacker them out. Great fun

Messi has been the best player in the world for the past 20 years by a country mile and to even mention Ronaldo in the same breath is an absolute joke !!!

Yeah but you've been masturbating furiously over Barry Bannan for the last ten years so what the fuck do you know

Fancy Belgium to cause an upset against Spain. England Argentina semi on the cards. Hard to see past France for the Jules Rimet.

“England players will be advised not to jump over advertising hoardings after Jordan Henderson suffered a freak injury in the aftermath of their World Cup victory over Mexico”


The millionaires have also been advised not to drink water from a very recently boiled kettle, or take a bath with a plugged in toaster. At least when there’s a World Cup on. The FA are hoping players agents are on board with this.

'The Jules Rimet' was given to Brazil in 1970.

There's a nasty thought. You'd never get rid of the taste of fake tan!

We really do need the queasy emoji on the quick options, don’t we

Going to miss the 3/4 games a day!

I'm predicting a France vs Argentina final because that's what FIFA want. Whilst the golden boot winner has always been a 'thing' at previous world cups the onus on mbappe and Messi has felt manufactured, the fact Kane and especially Harland are up there perhaps an accident of both teams progressing further than assumed.

I don't have a tin foil hat, I just think increasingly big events like this have a preferred narrative and as FIFA are crooked as fuck it's not a leap to think things are being manipulated.

Infantino said "he suffered with the Argentine fans" during the game.

You're right about their financial corruption and it undermines absolutely everything else.
Unfortunately, it really isn't too much of a leap to think they could be influencing the officiating of matches.

By the way, on average - England receive a card every 7 fouls. Argentina's number is 20...

I'm not massively into conspiracies but with Bellingham, Rice, O'Reilly & Guehi all a yellow card away from missing a potential semi final, would it be a big shock if it went against us VS Norway?
The yellow Rice got in the first minute against Mexico was ridiculous

Infantino said "he suffered with the Argentine fans" during the game.

Yes, but don't forget, he is a 'migrant worker', he is 'gay'..

We are lucky to have a man with as much depth of feeling as our El Presidente.
