As shit as we were - the US were even shitter. Two terrible technically inept teams.

They even had Holden to play the Ed McIlvenny role as token Scotsman amongst it.

But then Gerrard and Lampard were dogshit alongside each other today - once again. I disagree. Hawer man they were both poor. There was no combination between them and they were both unable to do what they do best. The amount of stray passes was infuriating. At the end of the day if sacrificing defensive cover (Barry) meant we could see Lampard and Gerrard both together at the top of their game then fair play, but it's pointless because it simply doesn't work. Gerrard and Lampard together in a 4-4-2 has proven to be square pegs in round holes far too often.

The wankers can't even pass a ball. Technically terrible, the lot of them.

Aye, an absolute disgrace. Totally inept cunts.

I'd have no reservations about taking Green off now, his confidence will be shot to fucking pieces.

Tell me about it, and it's back in SD as we speak. ITV are a fucking joke.

Any of you other cunts watching on HD, the bastard went off ffs :angry: :angry: :angry:

I didn't think I'd care this much, but I'm getting a very nervous feeling in the pit of my stomach right now. Come On!!!

Milner..meh.

Dissapointing there wasn't more goals there, but hey, we have Enyeama to blame for that. Fantastic performance from him.

Congrats oldtype, was impressed by your lot today - so much more energy and invention than the Greeks. Greece were utterly awful though.

Switzerland Greece Latvia Israel Luxembourg Moldova Then they beat Ukraine in the Play-off. So aye, they had a piss easy run.

Ahhhh man. Korea are great.

Rehaggel just doesn't like him at all, it's crazy.

Oh for crying out loud.

http://twitpic.com/1vwlun Wonder if it works?

The noise really doesn't annoy me anymore tbh, I just tune them out completely for the most part. What is bad and what somebody else mentioned in this thread is the way they destroy a proper atmosphere developing. Instead of chanting and the roar when a chance happens all you get is the constant droaning of the horns - it's boring if anything. "proper atmosphere" Did it occur to you that the vuvuzelas are a large part of their atmosphere? You're not in Kansas anymore Dorothy. They're commercial toys that have been imported there over the last few years. I think VI said that they were used in Spain in the 80s when some spanner decided to import them there aswell. They're not 'cultural' in any way, shape or form. Like I said the sound generally doesn't bother me, It's just there and it certainly doesn't ruin it for me. However it's just a bit sad that it's the only thing that can be heard, no chants, no roar of the crowd at certain moments - hell even a drum would be nice to mix it up a bit. Part of the fun of the World Cup is the different noises that the different fans from over the world make during games, but all there is this time is the same horns. It's boring.

I've been doing the same for the last couple of weeks mate - from what I've heard they're happy to take your business in blind ignorance for the most part. F'kin hell, I've been thinking you were in your twenties for some reason. Really? Yeah. How old are you really then? If I can ask. I actually thought he was Japanese for a good while. Nee idea why like. What the f*** man? I did too, actually. It was because your Live account had some Japanese symbols or some s*** a while ago. Ah shit aye, I forgot about that. In-joke I think, although I can't remember what it was about. Think my location still says Newcastle on it though. Whey, nice to know I've been assuming an alter-ego as a twentysomething Japanese guy without even knowing.

Aye I saw that. Stupid cunt, France don't stand a chance in hell.

Good. He deserves a second season. Although I do wonder how you're gonna fit everybody into the front line next season.
