IbanezJem Posted November 24, 2022 Posted November 24, 2022 Game`s dull, but the big gold toilet they`re playing in is purest Trump. 1

blackhawkrush Posted November 24, 2022 Posted November 24, 2022 Spurs planning to play in yellow from now on? 1

IbanezJem Posted November 24, 2022 Posted November 24, 2022 Just now, zepphead said: does this bloke score many for Spurs? He does okay. It`s hard work for the strikers because Conte`s main tactic has been to have an eleven man defence and rely on rebounds. 1
IbanezJem Posted November 24, 2022 Posted November 24, 2022 Brazil are just fine without Neymar. If Argentina could just get rid of that pesky Messi and Portugal tell Ronaldo to do one, we could have a very enjoyable tournament. 2

blackhawkrush Posted November 24, 2022 Posted November 24, 2022 Referees seem to like the number 7. Helloween fans? 1
zepphead Posted November 24, 2022 Posted November 24, 2022 Once they cracked Serbia opened, Brazil looked pretty good. Did you guys watch Portugal earlier? Were they any good?

Were they any good? It was pretty dull although Portugal do have a decent mix of talent, experience and flair. They benefitted from a really horrible defensive error from Ghana at 1-1, and the last ten was just everyone being silly. It`s 3-3 if Williams had been wearing his football boots, not moccasins. 2

Were they any good? I think the game got so much better when Portugal opened the scoring. This is when you find out the true colors of these lesser teams. Now they can't just defend because there's nothing to defend. And who knows, if Wales, Poland and others wouldn't waste away most of their matches, maybe they'd come out on top in the end...well, Wales anyway. 1
pjbear05 Posted November 24, 2022 Posted November 24, 2022 A lovely pub about 15 minutes North of me, owned by a family of ex Brit's, announced on their FB page all their seats have been filled for USA v England, and no walk-ins will be allowed. I've been in there for big Premier League and FA cup game crowds. Place is gonna be a zoo! 2

zepphead Posted November 25, 2022 Posted November 25, 2022 Wales are poor in this game. Big chances for Iran to win this. 1
zepphead Posted November 25, 2022 Posted November 25, 2022 Wales have only themselves to blame. Deserved win by Iran. 1
Nova Carmina Posted November 25, 2022 Author Posted November 25, 2022 I didn't see it, but Iran seems to have won this deep into "Fergie Time"! With all this extra time, it'll work out to an extra two or three matches, at least! 1

Indeed it was deep into so-called 'injury time' ..... but to be honest they played like the team who wanted to win the match most. Wales were very disappointing. I'm not sure if there has been a Fifa directive on injury time, but I can never remermber so much of it played consistantly Edited November 25, 2022 by zepphead 1

I know a lot of folks will take a moral stand on the Saudi human rights record, but to be honest buying or not buying LFC will make no difference to that. It would provide a vast revenue stream which would allow Liverpool to remain competing at the top level. However I would have concerns about what it would mean at managerial level - Klopp is fine at the minute but a losing streak of even a few games could be fatal for the manager of a Saudi owned team. All things taken into consideration though, I would probably be ok with a Saudi take-over. As an aside.... imagine if the Saudis bought both LFC and Man Utd!!!!!

I'm afraid I'm one of those awkward sods who would mind things like the extra-legal murder of journalists and the systematic oppression of large swaths of their own society; those aren't exactly virtues we want exported. The money would be nice, but it would diminish my enthusiasm for the club. If KSA bought both clubs, we're one step closer to selling them the whole Premier League! Would they share resources? My god, would LFC and ManU have tp, gulp, share and play nice? The mind boggles. 1
