    Did you get caught on the rte.ie live streaming? That happened me in work yesterday. Was doing something else and all of a sudden neighbours was streaming down.
    Jaysus.

    I couldn't find the remote for five minutes :pac:

    Yes. 'tis poor.

    Looking forward to seeing the English scum getting the shíte bate out of them tomorrow.

    Argentina match is pretty **** so far

    The Greeks have parked the bus.

    Notice the hankerchief in Bill's jacket pocket changes every night. It's blue tonight. I think it was black last night and I can remember seeing red and green in it other nights.

    Argentina don't look too bothered about winning the match.. guess they don't need to go all out but you'd expect them to in the WC.. it's not all about progressing, it's about the football too

    This foreign fu*ker is on again.

    Can't understand the man at all. I want to see him get angry.


    Eamon has been axed from the panel. He's been off two days now and Bill is fighting with Ozzy.

    Foreign f*cker? Ossie Ardilles - he's a footballing legend... won the World Cup with Argentina, was one of the best players ever in the English league when he played for Spurs, starred in the best football film ever, "Escape to Victory" & was an incredibly skilled & talented footballer.. and the best you can come up with is "foreign f*cker"?

    Get a life, you racist bigot.

    They have made seven changes from the previous game but with the talent they have on the pitch at the moment they should be winning. Greece have to score now so it might make it a more open game.

    I suggest you tone it down a bit.

    As you wear your Celtic jersey & make some semtex explosives whilst listening to the Wolfe Tones and drinking a bottle of Guinness.

    Fair play to ya - hope you enjoy the match.

    Did anyone see the Greek player with the cotton wool hanging out of his mouth in the first half? Was having dinner earlier with the missus while watching it & she asked me - in all sincerity - "is he eating Candy Floss?"

    Women, wha? :rolleyes:

    S Korea 2-1 up now.

    Especially when you've used up a load of transfers filling your fantasy team with Argies expecting a bit of a goal fest.:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,626 ✭✭✭✭My name is URL


    If Greece score twice and the SK game stays as it is, who goes through?

    That's the group decided now, barring a major upset. Glad to see South Korea go through - they're not a bad team, very well organised (& being a Man U fan, I am biased as Park is the captain!).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,739 ✭✭✭✭starbelgrade

    South Korea on goal difference.

    Sorry, no - it'd be Greece.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 558 ✭✭✭Mick Daly


    He was a great player but I can't understand him at all. I don't really care how good he was, that was the past. I want someone who I can understand - like Johnny Giles!

    The comment on the English was Over the Top but I still want them to lose.

    Greece will.

    I think Ozzy has dumbed down the panel a bit. It's not as exciting anymore. I wish it was Graeme who was in Ozzy's spot and bring in Eamon for Graeme. That's the perfect panel, in my opinion.

    Ozzy just starts ravelling in a low tone and his accent is unbelievably hard to understand.

    That was the worst miss I've ever seen by Yakubu just there. :eek:

    Unbelievable.

    If more than two Greeks cross the half-way line at any one time I'd be suprised.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 558 ✭✭✭Mick Daly


    Johnny is already there. Just get rid of Ozzy, move over Graeme and stick Eamon in Graeme's seat = The Perfect Panel.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 558 ✭✭✭Mick Daly


    Yakubu penalty scored 2-2


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,417 ✭✭✭Miguel_Sanchez


    Nigeria have drawn level again. Penalty.

    Yakubu makes up for that ridiculous miss a few minutes ago.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,473 ✭✭✭✭Super-Rush


    2-2 in the Nigeria game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,598 ✭✭✭✭prinz


    Just realised Greece was in the same group as Switzerland in the qualifiers. They must have been great games.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,417 ✭✭✭Miguel_Sanchez


    Come on Argentina, just put one in for feck's sake.

    If Nigeria score again and go on to win the game and the Greeks hold out then the Greeks go through so far as I can make out.
