The Football.....

I won't say that Spain are bad at penalties, but up until the last world cup, they were the only team ever to lose to England in a shootout.

Bono has given Morocco the edge here!

Not you, too!

 

[Grant Fondo]

Crikey! What's going on... knew we would get a last 16 shock.

 

[postman]

powder puff penalties in a World Cup.Wtf.

 

[Rusty Nails]

which will result in loads of pissed up Donny fans spending the evening in Newport. surely they would want to bring the game forward so they go home???

TBF if you really have to spend an evening in Newport getting pissed is the only way to do it.

Well, I was impressed with Switzerlands performance against Serbia and said it would take a good side to beat them. At this time Portugal look to be that good side.
Come on Switzerland !

Are you using every pan/utensil in your kitchen per meal?!

There's been 4 matches each day until recently and even now there's 2 so what on earth have you found to do in that kitchen of yours for all this time?

I am now washing up for the first time since last Saturday, while listening to the Portugal v Switzerland match on the radio. After I've washed up I'm going to do a bit of sewing/repairs jobs.🧐

Not you too. I heard that one soon after the match ended.

I heard a couple of Spanish fans being interviewed in Five Live this morning who were on their way back to the hotel for a few drinks before the match. The interviewer (Rick Edwards) said was that possible. and they just laughed.
Hypocrisy of the hard line Arab hosts?

No, they have allowed drinks for foreigners in hotels for quite a long time now. The ban is ONLY in the stadia.

Surprised to hear Hazard has retired from international duty, could this be the end of the so called 'Golden Generation'?

Even more surprised that he's only 31, feels like he's been around for ages!

I would imagine a few more of that Belgian side may follow suit.

Jan V is 35
Toby A is 33

New coach will have a "rebuild" on his / her hands
