Football

Nic, I understand you completely... I'm usually not a big fan of football and find it mindboggingly boring when people talk about it, but I do like watching those bigger championships (the Euro and the World Cup).

Tactics bore me to death, though. I just want to watch the game.

 

I'm not going to shut up about it either. We had won that game!

**Passes out hankies for the weepy posters....Richie **

Although, it was certainly one of the most exciting matches I've seen, you could cut the tension with a knife!

Well, we tried, thats the main thing...

Very true Leigh!

 

At least you got to watch it, best I get is the BBC radio that cuts out....then get told by a Canadian we lost

Oh well gives me an excuse for a couple of drinks tonight

 

Do you need an excuse for a couple of drinks ,J?

Seriously, I wish I hadn't watched it now, i bit all my nails off!

 

* Whants to shake hands with england to know all is well *

Incredible match. There where some bad sittuations for both teams. Watched the all game. IT was exciting.

I must say i'm quite happy, before the match i was afraid of england being much stronger than portugal. But during it i imediatlly understood it was going to be one of those matches.. Full of good and bad emotions, and tensions.

Hugs from portugal. Hope your friends talk well about our country reception.

Hope you support Portugal to win the euro.
Hugs and Thanks.

 

lol well here the drinks aren't as good Yosh

Unfortunatly I won't support Portugal, my other half is part Dutch so he supports the Netherlands so that's who I am going with for the rest of the time.

 

@ Whitehorse- Congratulations on the win my friend!

It was definitley one of those matches!

@ J- But surely drinks are fine anywhere, as long as they are alchoholic!

 

Well I don't drink beer so kinda cuts down the choices here. I drink more like Archers bottles and Breezers but they don't really have them here. I have only found 2 maybe 3 types here so less choice.

Although I have found the new versions of Malibu

 

Oooooooooo what are they like then?

As for me, where there's beer, there's my home lol

 

some where on the net there is a website for that reff you can send him comments and feedback, when I find it there will be alot of four letter words being typed.

 

I haven't tried them yet I was trying to finish my original version off first but there is a pineapple flavoured one and a mango flavoured one. I picked up the mango one.

LOL I think alot of people will be doing that Ellbobin.

 

OK, I've found his website. You can use Google translator on it which i've already done for you on the web address (Ah, how convienient!). You'll have to click on feedback on the menu on the top. I've already sent him something along the lines of:

**** you Urs! That Shouldn't have been dissallowed! Your A ****ing **ick! Sol Campbell's Goal Was Perfect! John Terry Jumped Before Ricardo And He Should've Moved If He Wanted To Catch It!


Only thing is, I've just realised he won't be able to read it 'cause I did in English.

France Lost!!
The invincibles have been dismissed

This tournament is truely amazing


I'm still supporting Holland to win

 

I wanted France to win after we went out 'cause I would've won a leather football. Oh Well, this year's Euro 2004 is the crappest ever.
First, we get knocked out when we should've won.
Now, France are out so no football for me.

 

Football is very odd

 

I wouldn't say it has been crap, quite the opposit. Makes a change to see some different teams doing well.

 

I'm happy France are out personally but thats just me

 

The reff watched the tape and didnt even say 'oh I was wrong' he cant even admit it! Even if he doesnt put us back in then at lest say I was wrong!
oh ***************************************************************************
********************************************************************************
Is how I feel right now

Edit: to stop scrolling

 

Well, Sweden had to feel the penalty terror to

Its a shame there is not a nicer way to settle a game

 

Ahhh well.

Hey, apparently, with the world cup qualifiers looming, we have to play Wales!! Should be interesting!

 

Pffft!
Should be easy

 

I found a website ages ago which had a small cartoon which is here:

And very recently, I found the Euro 2004 version of it:

http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/35/

Just thought i'd show you guys that 'cause of Euro 2004.

 

I'm going to be controversial - I think Terry did foul the keeper, and that the 'goal' was correctly disallowed

 

Cripes!! What makes you say that?

 

Well, whether you agree with the rule or not, if you raise your arms in the penalty box against the keeper, the referee will penalise you, in theis case for obstruction. John Terry's arm has clearly come across the keepers neck whilst Sol Campbell headed the ball in the net, therefore the referee IMO was right to give a free kick. It is irrelevant if the keeper made a half-gashed attempt at catching the ball.

We can moan all we want about the ref, but really we should be moaning about the rule which gives keepers too much protection.
