I get no pleasure out of watching men play with their oddly shaped balls, but each to his own as they say. 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

I have made myself unpopular with my 8 year old grandson by insisting that, Aussie Rules FootBall is actually played with an Egg.

Dont worry Chris they'll keep all the back episodes of Coronation St and Eastenders until after the Cup. You can then binge to your hearts delight!

Even the adverts are football themed.


The ref was biased.
England should have had 2 penalties for being mauled by a Tunisian.

Dirty players those Argentinian's.

VAR, for or against , there was an incident involving Ronaldo last night , for me it's a red , the ref has the benefit of Var and gives a yellow .

The only five minutes of football I've watched included that incident. I'm not sure what the bar is in football for a red, but I don't think, whatever it was, connected.

I reckon we'll get to the quarter finals, which is probably about fair for the team we have.

We've played two poor teams up to now. Hardly 'football's coming home' stuff, but grand to watch, especially the Panama match. The match against Belgium should show us what they're made of.

They've got great potential, but none would feature in a 'World 11'. Not that that really matters, as Leicester prove a few seasons ago.

I know the path to the final would be easier if Belgium beat us, but no England fan wants to see a loss. Perhaps a win against Belgium would give the boys a confidence boost. No team, even the 'Big Boys', look invincible. Looking forward to however long we're in it.

[*concerned*]

It'll be a good match tonight, Argentina need to win to stay in

Lose and they go home, draw and they still might (goal difference I think?)

Germany out of the World Cup.
