the Suns' world cup ad.... it's pretty good....

[

Disgusting. Truly sick to be linking anything to that verminous shite.

 

[PaulB]

interesting response.... It was more about the heading challenge rather than the Sun itself...

I don't care what it was about. The source where you got it from renders it meaningless.

I don't read the Sun, but I still find your comment rather stupid and making no sense...

Unless ...

World Cup 2014: fears over state of Manaus pitch before England v Italy

Based these and previous posts, I suspect PaulB's a Liverpool fan so it's probably not worth getting into a debate about The Sun: his position is already quite clear and I suspect things will not go well.

In case anyone @threebikesmcginty's link on the World Cup predictions thread, here it is http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-27761373 neatly summing up my feelings surrounding England at football tournaments far more eloquently than I could.

I'm already starting to get excited about tomorrow night. 5-a-side from work then Brasil vs the team who play in my favourite kit. A glorious evening awaits!

The first pic in that link makes it look horrendous, the second seems much better. I'm liking the Lego stadium!

Is it just me who's getting the feeling the Netherlands team is fully coked up?

 

[ianrauk]

hahaha.. great analogy..
I would say thats a big yes..

Oh an another one goes in

 

[threebikesmcginty]

They've effed up my prediction!

 

[deptfordmarmoset]

They've effed up my prediction!

I haven't checked but I'm fairly certain no one will come away with 3 points from this one.

EDIT: I've half-checked but only players with a number in their name (@wait4me and @Paul99 ) have picked up a point.

 

[ianrauk]

Oh my word that was fabulous football..

[ianrauk]

Well at least it will stop the cloggies fighting each other until at least the next match?

 

[Supersuperleeds]

I'd be enjoying this if I hadn't drawn Spain in the sweepstake

 

[rich p]

Spain are guilty of playing with complacency and believing they have a divine right to win
