It’s okay, there’s still the fifa military death zone cup to come

Posted: **Tue Jun 10, 2025 8:35 pm**

True.

Also, it's 2-2 oh... it isn't...

Posted: **Tue Jun 10, 2025 8:38 pm**

This reminds me a bit of the Ghana friendly, quite a few years ago, where they played the match like it was the World Cup final.

Posted: **Tue Jun 10, 2025 8:48 pm**

I'm not sure why I watched either of those matches. Good to see ARE PROUD LADS playing in my fine city with such skill and intensity I guess

Posted: **Tue Jun 10, 2025 9:48 pm**

I watched 12 minutes of these matches combined and saw harry kane do two goals, somehow

Posted: **Tue Jun 10, 2025 9:48 pm**

Two glorious goals

TUCHEL OUT!

Auckland's second best football team (the best one competes in the Australian league rather than in the NZ league) somehow managed to draw 1-1 with Boca Juniors in the Club World Cup!

Well done them!

wowsers

I bet it wasn't at the Boca stadium though. Have you seen it? They go utterly bonkers

Posted: **Wed Jun 25, 2025 9:49 am**

it was in some utterly empty stadium in america instead for some reason

Posted: **Wed Jun 25, 2025 9:49 am**

(the reason is money and corruption)

Posted: **Wed Jun 25, 2025 11:23 am**

what a load of wank

Only the dull small minded parochial thinking of Bert Millichip can save us now...

Also the ref Ray Tinkler, who cost Revie's Leeds the championship in 1971, is still with us at the grand old age of 96.

I hoep match commentator Barry Davies (aged 87) is still infuriated with Tinkler's championship title changing decision.

Yeah, what horrible news

England women's first two group matches - France then Netherlands. Blimeys!

Posted: **Tue Jul 08, 2025 9:33 pm**

yeah, i have no idea how they do the seedings, but its pretty weird there's three of the six or so teams who could win it in the same group, and then a load of old rubbish in switzerland's group (i assume there was one seeded team per group, and switzerland got seeded as they're the hosts)

Posted: **Tue Jul 08, 2025 9:34 pm**

england were pretty shite the other day too, which hardly helped

Posted: **Thu Jul 10, 2025 12:58 pm**

Troo.

Yesterday's performance was much better, and if we play anything like that against lovely Wales, it could be a bit of a spanking.

Posted: **Sun Jul 13, 2025 7:58 pm**

Poor old wales

Posted: **Mon Jul 14, 2025 7:53 pm**

Ves indeed.

England - Sweden could go either way imo.

Also, I'm oddly pleased with the Cheslea FC win.

Posted: **Mon Jul 14, 2025 9:22 pm**

Chelsea should fuck off to america and stay there really

Posted: **Mon Jul 14, 2025 9:24 pm**

Also yesterday Southend played their first pre season friendly, against cardiff, in spain.

i have no explanation for these events

Posted: **Tue Jul 15, 2025 12:36 am**

Lost at sea?

Posted: **Tue Jul 15, 2025 1:05 am**

maybe they're inexplicably popular abroad now

Posted: **Tue Jul 15, 2025 5:41 pm**

Perhaps it was a choice of play football or make a spaghetti western.

Posted: **Thu Jul 17, 2025 12:58 am**

I was a bit disappointed with Norway to-night, and thought Italy deserved the win.

Posted: **Thu Jul 17, 2025 1:02 am**

Yes. Also I liked jonathan pearce having a breakdown at one point and telling everyone to google the marx brothers for some reason

These nightmarish events will continue to happen until the EU admits they were wrong, and agrees to sign a trade deal that massively favours the UK!

IT'S ABOUT TIME THIS HAPPAN

Posted: **Thu Jul 17, 2025 9:57 pm**

That was the worlds worst/best ever penalty shootout

Posted: **Thu Jul 17, 2025 9:58 pm**

Also poor Sweden. Should have won it normal time, should have won it in extra time, should have won on penalties

But somehow didn't win it at all

Posted: **Fri Jul 18, 2025 1:04 am**

Indeed. I'm still trying to work out how we're playing Italy in the semis. And they're not as good as Sweden, imo, so we've got a chance, there. Somehow?!?

Also, most of our penalties were a bloody disgrace.

Posted: **Fri Jul 18, 2025 11:29 am**

Yes I think that was the worst penalty shootout I've ever seen. There was one Sweden penalty that was basically perfect, and most of the rest were dreadful.

Also for some reason I'm going to be in (or at least very near) Geneva on Tuesday when England play Italy there, so I'm now trying to navigate the UEFA resale site for tickets. ("Unfortunately, the item you have selected is no longer available")

Posted: **Fri Jul 18, 2025 12:03 pm**

i wonder when exactly it was decided that buying tickets for anything would now be basically impossible

Posted: **Fri Jul 18, 2025 12:18 pm**

covid

Posted: **Fri Jul 18, 2025 12:26 pm**

Posted: **Fri Jul 18, 2025 2:36 pm**

it was great, bad penalties are much more fun than good penalties

Posted: **Fri Jul 18, 2025 3:13 pm**

Lauren James's penalty was so bad, I kicked the pedal bin (yellow colour).

Posted: **Fri Jul 18, 2025 8:13 pm**

The best penalties are the ones where they absolutely smash it into the top corner, like Harry Maguire or Chloe Kelly.

Posted: **Fri Jul 18, 2025 8:14 pm**

Although I guess I agree a completely chaotic penalty shootout is better than a very competent one.

Posted: **Fri Jul 18, 2025 9:53 pm**

My father's penalty-taking philosophy has always amused me.

"Don't try to do anything clever, just kick it as hard as you can in the right direction. If you don't score, you might at least injure the goalie."

Posted: **Fri Jul 18, 2025 10:11 pm**

The spain player tried that tonight near the end

Chloe Kelly's penalty was great, one of the few players who can make a fancy run-up look cool rather than annoying

Posted: **Sun Jul 20, 2025 2:50 pm**

I thought France should've beaten Germany last night, especially 11 v 10 for most of the match. And that was a helluva save by the German keeper to stop the own goal.
