aye hench, guilty as charged. Half swiss too though.
It's not about "anyone but" that is pretty much joc(k)ular, with me in any case.
But be honest, they've not convinced throughout the tournament. The belief that they could win was over optimistic at best. The press have a lot to answer for in that instead of adopting a "let's enjoy ourselves" attitude it has been "we can relive the glory of '66 but beat Gerry on his own turf like we did in '45" and similar. The commentary has been woefully biased and even in games where England haven't been playing they continually have had to draw obtuse reference to Engerlund
and how they would wipe the pitch clean. Were it not for the press and certain politicians trying to incite Scots to support England I'm sure many Scots would. After all most Scots football fans follow the premiership as opposed to the Scottish leagues.End of the day it's just a game and taking it so seriously is why "our" schadenfreude is so great.
Scotland will never qualify for the world cup ever again anyway so that argument is moot ;)

ach who cares.
As long as we get decent commentating again on the BBC and no more of this damn whining.

be lucky you don't have to listen to the jackholes on ESPN, it's so obvious they don't know shite about the game.

Good riddance to the worst playing most over hyped team there, they had no chance of winning and in their hearts they knew it.

Yip, the gerry's look unbeatable. but a france v the germans final would be pretty exciting.
Hi MX, hench is a prick, just ignore him - his website, little though there is of it, looks very amateurish and faux trendy so dinnae let that fud comment on fuck all. (sorry I never got back about joining you for booze, I was in Germany at the World Cup!!!- got the message when I returned)
can;t believe brazil and arg are out! gutted they never performed.
As for Engerland, the aggressive and racist fans I saw in Germany (and that's every single one of them, seriously)deserve exactly what they've got. Why Sven played 4-5-1 with potentially the best midfield in the world I'll never know. he should have just stuck Hargreaves in Beckhams position and played crouch from the start. There you go, sorted ;)

wahey josimar!
grand atmosphere in Germany though, eh? I'm over again in 10 days, so I'll miss the final.. but picking mrs_emecks up and driving back here with her and a couple of kegs of Licher, fuck Carlsberg - this is THE best lager on the planet ;)
Another one week of work and then redundant too... nervously looking forward to a bit of freelance for a while.

Take only four strikers to the world cup, two who were injured... another one who hasn't played for his new team, and didn't even get a kick of the ball... If this was though out properly they'd not have needed to rely on penalties.
C. Ronaldo was a slimeball but thats nothing new, and the portuguese team have the inability to stay on their feet.
Rooney shouldn't have done what he did, I reckon the push was what got him the card. Ronaldo got tripped at one point, and was rolling around on the floor holding his shin pads... what was that all about!
Portugal need to look at themselves though as they couldn't score past ten men for an hour...
All in all though it wasn't too much of a gutter as there wasn't the passion of Italia '90 when we actually deserved to get that far.
