Todays game is far too fast to keep your eye on where the ball is 100% of the time. Todays footballs are too unpredictable to judge 100% where they are going. The tech is there, whether or not it is putting chip in the ball and sensors around the goal line, or taking 30 seconds out of the game and adding it on at the end in order to look at it on a TV. It's about time FIFA grew the fuck up and relised this, it's no good putting a guy behind the goal to do the job a linesman can't do and especially when the game doesn't have enough officials on the pitch in anyway. FIFA have fucked up big time here, not only in this game but I've seen other games in the World Cup where simple things about the ball going out for a thro in or not coming to the wrong decision.Todays game is far too fast to keep your eye on where the ball is 100% of the time.

FIFA have fucked up big time here, not only in this game but I've seen other games in the World Cup where simple things about the ball going out for a throw in or not coming to the wrong decision. England once they scored the 1st goal today were the better team and the Germans were the 2nd best team. England were on the up, Germany were on a downward spiral. If that goal had have allowed then I could only see England going on to win. What happend today and what would have happend if that goal was allowed are two totally different games. How can a team be motivated after that, you can't there is no fucking way you can be 100% motivated after that decision has gone agianst you. In my view the Premier league and the FA should turn around and say we are bringing goal tecnolgoy in our game, like or lump it. They can kick England out of worlds cups and Euro's, and they can kick our teams out of Europe, it doesn't matter because every footballing nation will be looking at all us all of the time and seeing how goal line tech works and they will all be calling on FIFA to impliment it across the whole game.

I like that Rangers one, the good thing is because the sponsor is booze they have to give you the option not to have the sponsor on which woulkd make it even better.

Fuck, Germany.

It's Ghana who I want to score.

Fucking hell. That is a great reason why football can bearly ever go on forever.

I fancy Ghana to get a point here and for Serbia to win.

On SSN live score centre it says that as things stand Germany will move down a place into 3rd despite having a better goal difference and the scores both being 0-0. A fuck up surely?

This. Football is exciting most of the time, even if it is the bigger team winning, the attractive football they can play can be great. A simple 1-0 game can be exciting, just because it's the unexpected team winning and the other team is doing everything to get back into the game. Most of the world loves football, it's only really in North America and Oceanic where it's not as popular but it is growing in those places. Most of the ideas FIFA have came out recently is to make football more popular in these places, and it's not needed. I'd rather keep football the same and not have these places like fooball then change it beyond recognition.

We did play them in the Intorto, I remember them knocking us out. I just thought we played them in the Uefa Cup aswell, I know we have came across them other then that Intertoto Cup game.

Since we got them in the Uefa Cup a few years back a few fixtures against them have cropped up. I'm sure we have played them in the Intertoto Cup aswell, they knocked us out if I'm correct and we have also played them in a friendly aswell if I'm correct again. Not a bad fixture though.

I would drop Rooney, not because of what he said, I don't even know what he said but because his performance was aweful tonight. Crouch and Defoe looke more interested then he did. SWP was crap and I don't even know why he took Lennon off, he was the only one trying to get the ball into the box, atleast in the first half. I'm so relieved that Carragher can't play on Wednesday, he done nothing but give freekicks away, Heskey was the same. Their was no movement, and Gerrard and Lampard cannot play in the middle together and neither of them can play out of the wing, and at this moment in time I would pick Gerrard ahead of Lampard. I'm really pissed off that Joe Cole didn't come on, he offers us so much going forward and so much pace aswell, if it's because he's not fit then why bring him? This is the team I would play on Wednesday: Hart Johnson Terry Dawson A. Cole Lennon Barry J. Cole Gerrard Crouch Defoe

Harper Taylor Wheater Johnson Carrick Shola Carroll Fill that with whoever else I've forgotten, and I'd fancy our chances of losing. Martin Taylor Jack Colback Peter Damage I went to school with him. I was a shit player but I was the only one who could get thr ball of him at times. I like to keep an eye on how well he does, he seemed canny for Ipswich last year. Btw you could put Jack Walkers name on that list aswell, who once scored against Bayern Munich.

Aye, all of you getting hyped up thinking Germany were world beaters because they hammerd Australia. Anyway, if Ghana beat Australia which I suspect they will, then I wouldn't mind betteing on Ghana getting something out of the Germany game combined with Serbia beating Australia to send Germany out.

Thats what I thought. The black bits are the seats and the white bits is the roof.

Is it just me or does the white one have no Puma logo's on the sleeves?

Being relaced by Sky3 +1, which is a repeat of everything that is on Sky3, which is a repeat of everything thats on Sky2, which is a repeat of everything thats on Sky1. How many fucking chance do Sky want to give people to watch the Simpsons?

79 pages of this thread until we got to see what the away tops look like, fuck knows how many more pages there is going to be until we see the home one.

I'm liking the keeper top, also the blue one is good aswell. I would defo have he white one if the purple bits were blue instead. Anyway noway am I geting any shorts, that boxers belt buckle type logo is just a big no no. Here is to hoping the Home top is better then the leaked one.

So this is what happend then. http://thechive.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/jediball.gif?w=237&h=115

It's going to be one hell of a party in Dublin tonight.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!

Ameobi, shit but I can come up with something special. In all fairness I read the game well and know what to do in my head but I can't actually do it often. I'm rather good in defence or holding midfield role, if I had a bit more pace and stamina then I would say I'm not half bad in that role. I used to be a fucking mint shot stopper in goal though.

On, exactly inline.

Get in! Excellent spot by the linesman.

Fuck that, I want France out, and in a no way at all suspicious way.
