Should have known you'd back a bunch of  people insulting your own country. And refusing to watch a video of it cause the newspaper reporting it isn't woke enough for you. 

 

should've known you'd politicise sport 

league of their own

As I was saying, Go France. Beat these scum and make all the Messi-cultists cry. Bet they get a dodgy penalty again though.

the Mail lol, that paper is an embarrassment in the UK. 

Oh and fuck the French. Jammy cnts again last night.

I don't think it's as terrible as you lot seem to think it is. 

I liked it 

can't get past the vocals, so it's a pass from me 

solid, but behind the quality of most of II 

Is it the same singer??

Nah, not like Issa at all. Whatever one thinks of her voice she's always come across as confident to me. 

not live she wasn't 🤣🤣

bit like ISSA yeah? 

Sounds pretty crap and you're surprised when you find out she's been around for ages and that people still keep writing songs for her to spoil 🤣

Read a few comments on the last album?

I thought it was great. Only song I didn't care for was Battle Ground.

Actually, though? You had expectations for that one?

I did when Schon said it was like Escape 2. 

unfortunately it was like Generations 2, only worse 😕

Disappointing means it sucked when I did not expect it. Let me think. 

disappointment means it didn't live up to your expectations, not that it necessarily sucked.

HEAT doesn't suck, but it was by far my biggest disappointment as I was expecting excellence 

God only knows what people are seeing in that def Leppard album? Was no 1 in classic rock mag as well.

Pretty average to these ears. 

HEAT & journey 

CiS next Sunday. Awesome live 👏 

then on the flip side you have people like Terry Butcher. Warrior.

All the acting, diving , screaming and all round BS is why I rarely watch this sport....it reminds me of 'pro' wresting too much.....they really should try to clean up that shit as it is a travesty....

only really happens in international football and just certain countries as well. 

You never really see any play acting or cheating in the English Premier league.

The worst are Brazil,  Argentina, Uruguay & Portugal 

I know what u mean, but I still prob would lol. 😉

Decent listen imo

Speaking of this, can someone set my mind at ease? I only watch the highlights, but I assume you guys are watching the full matches. 

So in the match yesterday, my question is about Argentina's second goal - the penalty. The replays clearly showed the Argentinian maggot took a ridiculous dive and the Dutch dude was nowhere near him. I was watching it thinking, can't they contest that? Can't they send it to the video ref or something, and either get the Argentinian murdered on the spot, or at least red carded? And obviously the penalty reversed. But I assumed it wasn't allowed for such an instance. 

But then today I'm watching the France and England highlights and a couple of similar type of instances went to the video ref. So what's the deal in the Holland match? Did they take that to the video ref and lose, and if so how? Or did they not send it to the video ref? It was so blatant and obviously a domino effect kind of moment... but you could argue it may have cost Holland their spot in the competition. So did they review it? 

yeah somehow the kane incident went to var as well, despite it being a blatant penalty wasn't allowed?? how? 

Also the Saka free kick was not allowed which lead to the first France goal. Foul in my book, if he'd screamed and rolled around it would probably have stopped play.

is what it is but some odd decisions

Bit disappointed as I think both Holland and England played better and both are out. But that is soccer. Gotta take your chances. Think I am on team France now cause I dislike the remaining countries. Croatian fans are the worst, being basically fascists. Argentina are cheats and always have been. Morocco is Morocco. So Vive la France 🇫🇷 

would like to see someone else win it tbh. Would be a good end to Messi's career.

Not that I will see the final as will be travelling up to Cats in Space gig 🥳🥳

pretty good, but not close to Levara 😭

I thought England played really well, especially in the 2nd half. Just wasnt quite enough.

Congrats to France and hope for a Mbappe Messi showdown in the final 👊

That ref always does that...he enjoys the spotlight...we've seen it in the champions league more times than enough...thinks its all about him

that ruck was great though. Hilarious. 

also they used to have a golden goal but ditched it as it made teams even more defensive in extra time

Yeah, I actually took that harder than the Aussie loss, I guess just because there’s the outside realistic possibility the Netherlands could have won the whole thing. 
 

But yeah, that awesome comeback, including that madly ballsy second goal… only to lose in a penalty shootout. 100% completely agree with your golden goal suggestion. 

Trust me there was absolutely zero chance of Holland winning the world cup.

Really poor in all the matches I watched.
