Joe Cole...What a Goal!
They are claiming it to be the goal of the tournament! Quickly forgot about Argentina didn't they! Tongue in cheek but Steve Wright's mob claiming it as one of the greatest world cup goals ever. Getting a little bit excited me thinks. Build them up only to knock them over !!!

World Cup : best fans
Ghana or any african nation. They know how to party ! Go mental when they score. Non stop drumming. I met some Cameroon fans at the 90 world cup and they were fantastic.

The Official World Cup Thread
MUPPET OF THE YEAR AWARD ..... drum roll please ............... goes to ................ Ian Wright ..... da dah !!!! Shrieking like a girl after the France / South Korea game. Desailly sitting beside him obviously upset and yet that arse can't help but laugh and rub it in. Think back to the N. Ireland / England qualifier when all he could do was throw the rattle out of the pram and sulk like a 2 year old. (sorry to any 2 year olds - no offence intended). What does this man offer to a match analysis? Nothing. Absolute joke. I'd rather listen to Jimmy Hill than Ian "down wiv it man" Wright ! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh !!!!

The Official World Cup Thread
England have been shocking in 2 games. No excuses about heat against T&T. Devoid of any great ideas and strikers look poor. It would take Rooney a couple of games to get fully match fit and will they still be in by then? A decent team will punish them. Ecuador? Looked ok - decent enough side. Germany? Always solid and have actually played quite well. England World beaters? Me think not !

English MEDIA Hype
Pure and Simple: Scots love to see England lose and English feel the same about Scots. It seems there is no place for fun and a bit of ribbing. There is nothing posted anywhere on this site that is racist. It's all been good clean fun in perhaps a "jealous we're not there" kind of way. The Aussies have taken more of a verbal bashing than anyone! Political Correctness has taken over.

Italy for pre season
Big change from Oban tournie or Keith!

English MEDIA Hype
Too much. And to top it there is a programme now running with Ricky Tomlinson trying to trace the 66 shirts! For feks sake. Hopefully Uri Geller will do his usual bit, urge England to touch a photo of Rooneys foot and ferk it up for them (again) !

who would you like to see win the world cup
Personally, don't like England - nuff said Holland - Arrogant Itay - Bit dull really Germany - Nah Argentina - Maybe on a good day, nah, dirty. Australia - couldn't stand Aussies mouthing off about another game Ivory Coast - Drogba - No way Ghana - Essien - No way So it's either Brazil or Spain- too obvious. I think I'll settle for Czech Republic.

How kind
This world cup I hadn't really got caught up in the anti- English thing (too much). Certainly not as much in previous years. However last night I watched a programme on Sky. Greatest world cup goals or whatever presented by Sean Locke. Every goal against Scotland was finished off with a sarcastic " Byeeee" So now I am riled. I can't wait for England to get ferked and this DVD will be played every day until I can say "Byeeeee" to them !

ODDS
Ladbrokes have ICT as 350-1 to win SPL next season. If that doesn't fill you with hope then maybe a World Cup bet. Englands Top scorer - Rooney 9/1 or Gary Neville 200/1. But I think I may go for 33-1 odds. England not to score A goal!!

England Vs Hungary
Heard Motson and co describing a Hungarian tactic as gamesmanship !! Surely taking a dive in the box and conning your way to a pen means the same? You can't beat a good bit of neutral commentary!

England Vs Hungary
Motson 1 min 49 seconds. Blimey !! That's fast even for him !!

WORLD CUP a guide for commentators....
One we must hear: 21: Sadly Sven has got his tactics wrong and after the embarrasment of Northern Ireland we now have Trinidad. If only we had Rooney

And did Barry not score for Raith Rovers also?

Champions League Final
Thankfully Barca won despite one of the worst ever refereeing decisions. What more of an advantage is there than scoring a goal?

Scottish Football League in Turmoil, SPL2 the answer?
It may not be a bad thing for Scottish football. It may well be what has been needed for a long time: reduce the number of member clubs, strengthen others with fan numbers and player quality. Cull those who have contributed little to nothing over the years other than hold a perhaps undeserved league place: East Stirling, Albion Rovers, Montrose for example. A kick up the arse is the best way to get you back on your toes.

Intertoto back on??

Time to get the old...
And how typical of egomaniac Rowan Alexander to even dress OTT. Nothing wrong with wearing a kilt but that outfit was too much for a game.

Ambition For Next Season
I would actually be happy with the same league position again coupled with a decent cup run. Hopefully we could make it to a major final.

Mark Brown over looked AGAIN
We have the second best away record in the SPL. One of the best defensive records this season. This is largely down to the form of Mark Brown who has been in excellent form again, as in previous seasons. Smith has not played top flight that long. Marshall is still living on his European run and Turner was not that impressive in the future game a few weeks ago. So how then Walter Smith can you justify in leaving Brown out of the squad completely? It only shows complete contempt toward ICT. It seems despite what we have done we are still regarded as plucky, lucky, no hopers. I would never turn my back on the national side, but Smith a huge GIRUY
