This tournament's a complete farce. Shit officials, rows of empty seats and fucking Maradona winning. I'm turning over to Top Gear.

I'm always an optimist with Newcastle.

If they didn't we'd still be in the Championship.

Fuck off its time for some optimism. At least with Newcastle we know the players actually give a shit.

TOON TOON!

Well Mike we can be friends again now both our shit teams are out

I have no words. I hate football.

Should be able to play. He didn't get a straight red. Thanks, just sorting out my fantasy team.

Is Kaka still suspended for the next game?

Tyldesley really does need to shut his ridiculous face.

Big deflection on that one like. Love how Chile play, they never give up.

Brilliant football from Spain, ref is a joke.

They always do. http://www.zonalmarking.net/2010/06/08/marcelo-bielsa-chile-world-cup-2010-tactics/ Worth a read. Aye canny read that, good to see an innovator in the game who can fit a system to lots of different players.

What a goal.

Chile playing 3-3-1-3

At first glance I'd have given a penalty there.

This game is a bit shit like.

Just realised I've got Benaglio in net on my fantasy team and not Sorensen. Thank fuck.

Holland's away kit

Get in Van Persie. Fantasy points.

Got fucking Sorensen as my keeper in fantasy, useless c***.

Fuck me. Another.

Of course first and foremost we're all, aside from the foreigners on the board, supporting England, but I'm interested to know what other teams people have taken a liking to and wouldn't mind doing well. I've narrowed it down to 5. 1. Holland - The Dutch are a really nice bunch of people and they've always seemed to be a good footballing side. Travesty that they haven't won the World Cup yet considering the teams they've had. 2. Denmark - Mainly for Lovenkrands, even though he's not in the squad, and Jon Dahl Tommason. (sp?) 3. South Korea - Korean women, enough said. 4. Ghana - Loved seeing them play so far, wish they could finish better. Would like to see them beat the US on Saturday. Sorry Mike. 5. Portugal - I know they've beat us twice on penalties, but I'll be going for the 4th time in August. Really nice place and the people are always friendly. On the other side of the coin, any teams you'd like to see knocked as early as possible? 1. Germany - Obvious. 2. Argentina - I'm not one of these people that loves Maradona, he's still a cheating c***, I hate Lionel Messi and would take great pleasure in punching him repeatedly. 3. Spain - Sorry VI, but I'm sick of the hype around them. Hope Chile beat them. 4. Brazil - Can't be arsed having them win it again. 5. USA - I've nothing against them really, just that goal against us still annoys me and I've developed an irrational hatred of Donovan and Dempsey.
