Euro 2008 (2 Viewers)

[oh shit]

I hate it when you're into a tournament and people start going on about "their" clubs - "yeah, he'll heal 'our' centre-half woes" bla bla bla

(a) it's not goddam premierbore season
(b) this shit is bigger, motherfuckerzzz!

all football is equal, but some football is more equal than otherzzzz

The Bundesliga must be in some state if Toni and Gomez were the top goal scorers.

Toni is like a less skilled Niall Quinn and Gomez has been a can of piss so far.

[Carlow Punks!]

The Turkish on the street were letting off the fireworks...
...and now its the Germans turn!!!!

The Turkish guys who run the news-agents opposite let off fire works for both goals!!
I guess they don't want to alienate either side of their customer base....

 

[BonsaiSuperstar]

the phantom whistlers in the crowd is annoying me, i keep and stopping!

 

[Unicron]

Jesus what a game.

Felt really bad for the Turks, they totally deserved it.

 

[Dktr. Faustus]

the germans are such crybabies, hate to see them win

Same here and what else fucking annoyed me was BOTH RTE and BBC2 their commentary was a millisecond ahead of the actual game.

What a 2nd half!!
I thought the game was evenish and Germany were not as poor as both BBC1 and RTE made out.
Also the whole tournament the RTE panel keeps going on about how shite every team are.

 

[Carlow Punks!]

There was fifteen minutes there in the middle of the second half where I wanted to kill the Germans...they were just passing the ball around the field. FFS

I reckon they were just wasting time so they could score a late goal with little time for Turkey to recover. When Turkey got that 2-2 equaliser I nearly cried. I wanted them to win so bad...or at least force the Germans into a struggle in extra time. THey shouldn't have got a win after that pissy performance in 2nd half.

They're living it up on the streets right now, I tell you.
Balls....

We heard everyone on the street and neighbourhood shout out about a second before we saw anything happened on our TV in Germany's favour. Totally ruined the suspense of that last free for Turkey. They must all have satellite, and we just have terrestrial.

(And the coverage went off twice for two/three minutes...once right at the beginning of extra time! )

THis is a fuckin amazing tournament.

Anyone fancy a game in Maypark in Donnycarney now?

Nah Carlow this was not the usual terrestrial/Sat issue.
This was on my Sat itself where the commentary was ahead by a milisecond, I know full well the terrestrial/Sat thinghy as my neighbour has terrestrial and during the Champions league final when the penalties were on he was shouting whenever United done well (he is a ManURE fan) so I had to switch my TV volume up really loud just to cancel him out.
