2010 FIFA WORLD CUP

Watching Germany v Serbia right now. This match official has officially lost the plot. 6 yellow cards in 37 minutes, and a second (RIDICULOUS) for Klose which will DEFINITELY affect the outcome of this one. Serbia takes the 1-0 lead; can Germany fight back for the draw, or even a win? We shall see....

Gotta agree with Mike here,the Germans lost mainly to a solitary goal,a missed penalty and one of the most inept refereering displays not seen for a while !!!!!

 

As for Serbia,when the BBC co-commentator,Wolves manager Mick McCarthy,calls them "tarts",you get the picture !!!!!

Ok, Ian (or anyone else who was watching) what exactly was wrong with what would have been the 3rd and winning goal from the U.S.? They weren't offsides, three of our players were being held, but the official disallows the goal and calls no penalty. WTF? For the second match today, the officiating was ATROCIOUS.

That was terrible! How can we play so well in qualifying and be so pathetic at the tournament? Our players should be ashamed. What a f***ing disgrace!

That call was f'n atrocious. I've seen some bad calls but this one was called by Stevie Wonder for sure. Pathetic.

Well,to say I'm fookin' ashamed of England is an UNDERSTATEMENT !!!

 

Bad team selection,players who seemed NOT to give a fuck......

James - Worried he'd get the same shit as Green.

Johnson/Cole - Were at least on the pitch.

Carragher - At least tries.

Terry - "Donkey"

Lennon - The invisible man

Lampard - Looked as if tears were immenent.

Barry - Best player on view.

Gerrard - Hmmmm.

Rooney - Ugly,arrogant fuck-pig.

Heskey - Why ?

 

Simply,and it is the old statement,"On £100,000 a week,and SOOOOOO much better than everyone else",when in reality,when it comes to team-play other sides show so much more !!!!

Oh man do I feel for the US team. Great comeback, only to be totally, 100% and obviously ripped off of the win. As Mike says, there were Slovenian players literally holding US players in headlocks, yet the Slovenians get a penalty and the US get a disallowed goal? Most shocking decision I've seen at this World Cup yet... and could be very costly for the US.

 

As for the Brits... wow, what a lesson in yawning that was. At the moment I will be really surprised if you guys can beat Slovenia and make it out of the pool round. Based on those 2 games Slovenia should have you covered easily. :lol: Not to say they were great, but certainly superior to the British "effort".

 

Very surprised by the Germany result too - did not expect that, though it was a poorly officiated game.

 

Do or die for the Aussies tonight... I'll be staying up for this one for sure. The best part? I'll be well drunk by the time it's on, just in case I need it. Looking forward to seeing Netherlands too, as I need someone to fallback on when the Aussies are done. :(

Capello should hang his head in shame! Stubborn idiot continues to play everyone out of position! No wonder the players looked as confused as hell! Gerrard playing on the left, rooney ended up in mid fucking field lol! Maybe now he will play Rooney up front on his own with gerrard in the hole like they do so well for their clubs - it ain't rocket science for Christ sake! Still think we will beat Slovenia on wed and qualify but they need to improve and fast!

Holy shit, what was that (Nehtherlands v Japan)? Most boring half of soccer all tournament? Too boring for words. I expect the Australia vs Ghana match will be the complete opposite, with both trying their hearts out to somehow make the cut. Can't be worse than this, but jeez I hope there is at least a bit of action.

Haha. I'd love to see the Aussies actually win this one. It would then ensure - assuming there'd be no draws - that the 2 winners of the last 2 games in this pool would proceed in the tournament. Would make for 2 very exciting matches. That is, if the Aussies can win this one, of course. :(

 

Good to see Holland get the goal too - nice strike. I forgot to agree with Mike above too, but loved the 2 US goals too. The first one was especially cool.

Second half of the Holland v Japan match was MUCH more entertaining than the first. Great strike from Sneijder!

 

<sigh> Kewell sent off after the Aussies had taken the lead from a nice set piece, and then Gyan knots it up from the penalty spot fro Ghana. Would love to see the Socceroos get the win, but it's definitely an uphill battle now.

 

Yep, both the U.S. goals were excellent, but the angle that Donovan made his from was just unbelievable. :crazy:

Yeah the goal was good, but terrible goalkeeping - backed off right to his goal rather than coming out. God Ghana must be shite drawing with Australia ;-) he he

Gutted for the Aussies. Didn't mind who won before the game, but was really cheering for the yellows by the end. Okay, Ghana didn't play well, but that has to be the best performance I have ever seen by ten men against eleven. I thought Australia would win it at the end, they really went for it and created a few chances, fair play to them. It must be nice to support a team of players who actually look like they give a shit!

Excellent match. Both teams (but especially Cameroon in the 2nd half) just kept on pushing as many people forward as they could, and it produced one of the most entertaining games of the tourney so far. Lots of shots on goal, some great saves, and great defending in general from both sides. 13aplaudir.gif

    • I think the difference between Collective Soul and a lot of those bands is that their music could have been played in the 80s on the radio right next to the bands that I grew up loving. It's funny because I got a digital press kit for Dosage because I was a top reviewer on Garage Band and it was all about how Collective Soul had kept rock n roll alive and it referred to them as active rock multiple times. That was the first and last time I heard the term.
    • For what it’s worth, here is Golden Robot’s official statement: STATEMENT FROM GOLDEN ROBOT RECORDS  IN REGARDS TO THE RELEASE OF RILEY'S L.A. GUNS 'THE DARK HORSE' ON VINYL AND CD We have been diligently working with our manufacturers to ensure that we deliver the highest quality product to the fans, especially to commemorate Steve Riley's final piece of work.   We didn’t want to make a public statement until the release date was iron clad and today, we are thrilled to announce that the CD and special edition vinyls will be fully prepared to ship and available for sale on August 16th, 2024.   We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time. Your support means the world to us, and we cannot wait to share this special release with you.   This is the second album Golden Robot Records has had the pleasure in releasing for Riley’s L.A. Guns, and we believe it to be their best work to date.   Thank you for your continued enthusiasm and support. 'The Dark Horse' is currently available to stream/buy on all digital platforms.   ——————/// Hopefully they follow through on this…
    • And Steve Maggioria has already bailed. Par for the course with Trev's bands.  I imagine these guys will be done before the years out and it'll be everyone else's fault just like TREV, ZFG, The Biotin Babies, What So Not, Cash Vertigo, Levara, and all the other bands Nepo Boy-Wonder has promoted on the strength of his Dad's name. (I'll let him off the bands that he was doing with Benjamin Presley Keogh and Andrew Hagar, he didn't cause those demises). It's a shame, as he's actually a great guitarist and songwriter, he just an insufferable tool and perpetual victim.  Wonder where he get's that from...
    • Mirror of the Man - Ugly Kid Joe
    • Endless Jam - Schenker Pattison Summit
    • "Mirror Mirror" by Def Leppard
    • There are few good eggs at Golden Robot. When I had bitch on their Facebook page about the new, then, Gilby Clarke album. I got a private message from them asking for my address and t shirt. Sure, enough in one week in my letter box was the new Gilby and tee promoting the company. And there no money exchange.   Message them recently about the new CD, the woman asked all my details message me back. They still waiting getting approval from the Riley estate.
    • PoL is my favorite Jettblack song, absolutely love it!
    • I spoke to Wildstreet singer Jayk in e-mail and he said Golden Robot was being azz's with havin' CD's ready to go I'll leave it at that, but more was said.
