I want Brazil to win so they can lose the Final. If that doesn't happen I'd like Argentina to win with Messi scoring their only goals and kicking the mascots in the head pre-Final.

I'm not a fussy man. Either would do.

Lord TSC · 05-07-2014 2:07am

Given the refs performance today, wouldn't count out Brazil just yet....

Brazil are as good as out, Neymar has IMO dragged them this far.

Id be more inclined to say Silva tbh. Has been an absolute rock in defence, and my player of the tournament so far, even ahead of Rodriguez.

Looks too much like the kit from 3 year ago with a button and a new logo sponosr.

I dont hate Nike kits, but they arent as good as the umbro kits of old

Some absolute waste of oxygen has launched a court case seeking an injunction against any of the 5 concerts happening,yeah because that's a fantastic idea doing that many people out of a few quid for a days work or putting people from near and far out of pocket on hotels etc, Only in Ireland!!!

Ah it's gone beyond that at this point musical tastes aside a lot of people are getting ****ed in this stupidity

Lithium93_ · 07-07-2014 5:47pm

And if these shows don't go ahead, it's gonna make Ireland a further laughing stock.

Diabhal Beag · 07-07-2014 6:21pm

I don't think Garth Brooks gigs are necessarily the barometer of a nation's integrity on the international front.

I do feel sorry for people who bought tickets and who might be out of pocket with reservations.

CastorTroy · 07-07-2014 7:29pm

My mum was saying that she heard a couple ones on the radio about Garth. Man and woman who live on the same street near Croke Park. Think he might've been the guy trying to sue. Basically he was saying he can't get to and from his house when the concerts are on. She just replied asking what's he on about since he lives near her and she has no problems.

Deadlie · 07-07-2014 8:32pm

What's the craic with international stadia? Do they have many concerts on during the Summer as much? I know in Arizona that the stadium is used about once every three days, so it seems mental to me to be complaining over five nights.

Its been there since the 20s, can't imagine there are many people who weren't aware of it being there when they bought houses up there!

CastorTroy · 07-07-2014 9:52pm

As I know there are a few footie fans here, maybe they'd be interested in a nice nostalgia trip courtesy of GOG with Sensible Soccer for just a couple quid

Nope, what was supposed to be a 3 weeks trial in March has stretched out 5 months

All 5 Garth Brooks concerts have been cancelled

Angron · 08-07-2014 4:09pm

Sucks for people that bought tickets.

Lithium93_ · 08-07-2014 4:11pm

I blame those who wouldn't think of the financial benefit.

Angron · 08-07-2014 4:13pm

I'd blame those who decided to announce 5 dates without getting permission for 5 dates.

carpothepunk · 08-07-2014 4:29pm

Get Garth Sandow out to save the day.

RTÉ are in some trouble. Broadcasting live rape instead of the football :pac:

Rjd2 · 08-07-2014 9:47pm

Unless you are Brazilian or have money on them then I don't know how you couldn't have enjoyed that first half.

Wouldn't be shocked if they eased up totally in second half though.:(

Moneymaker · 08-07-2014 9:48pm

What the actual fuuck?

Lord TSC · 08-07-2014 9:50pm

Had money on Brazil to qualify.

Have money on on Over 6.5 goals. Tempted to cash out now for profit...

Bounty Hunter · 08-07-2014 9:57pm

Its fun being in Germany right now. Brazil are shocking without Silva

I'm enjoying this way too much

Crying fans are always what make any hammering amazing. Moreso than the goals.

Seriously though was too funny stacking Brazil get thrashed. Espically when my Brazilian mate stated flipping out on Facebook.

The Brazilians got buried tonight. On July 19th I bury one more.

I kinda wish I was a gambling man. So far I've predicted the right winner for all the knock-out matches for a competition on another forum.
