If video games represent real life (and we all know that they do) Germany will draw 1-1 with Croatia and then beat Austria 1-0. Unfortunately they'll then get beat 4-0 by Portugal in the Q-F. Hmmm.

video games are real life.

Who are you calling a twat?

Yeah sorry. Should have given that some context. Twas but a Partridge quote. My favourite along with: "He must have a foot like a traction engine". It was posted recently but merits a second look.

hooray for spain v russia. boo for the other fuckers later.
russia are great to watch attacking with pace but clearly they forgot they have to defend as well so theyre silly buggers really. cormoclash is a bollox. spain realise they have to defend but cant really. just like holland. spain v holland would be sweet to watch you'd imagine.

If Van Persie and Robben get back to full fitness, Holland will have added wide options which will make their style of play even more expansive than that which they demonstrated on the counter against Italy. I salivate at the possibilities.

 

[Cormcolash]

Trev salivates at the thought of all male footballers. He also salivates over H20 albums.

Cause they can't play against shit teams.
Still they got closer than those Fenians down South to qualifying, and beat everyone's favourites Spain 3-2 while they were at it.

Czech republic vs. Portugal
Breathtaking half, tough tackling, lots of technique, Evenly matched teams, goals, best half of 2008 so far in my book.

 

[evil bandit]

The Czechs should've brought Kohler on a lot earlier, Portugal looked very suspect from crosses and didn't seem to bother with putting people on the posts for corners.

Did anyone watch it on RTE? Jimmy McGee is on some buzz, he seems to fancy Kohler, went on about the crowd making clapping noises reminiscent of a Queen song, kept calling Portugal 'por-tig-al' and got in his usual two boxing references.....

2nd half Portugal upped their game.....wasn't as enthralled with the 2nd half.

That did my fucking head in.
Switched to ITV but they had Clyde Tydsley who does it in even more.

 

[Janer]

Wow! end!
Turkey score deep into injury time vs Switzerland.....1st half was hilarious, so much rain, pitch was almost waterlogged.
Swiss hosts are out.

 

[snakybus]

haha up yer swiss you non-committal, boring cunts!

 

[Moods For Mallards]

Dave Pleat kept on saying "Czechoslovakia", which was annoying. THen he tried to correct himself and said "the Republic of Czech..oslovakia".

 

[Mitchum]

When did Wayne Coyne get the Italy job?

 

[gtm]

I love when Pleat says Maz-er-azzi, er Matz-er-atzi. Er, the Italian defender. He called Ujfalusi something that sounded similar to 'Oi Poloi' last night.

David Pleat, you are an amazing idiot.

 

[trev]

on 52 minutes jimmy magee said something along the lines of "i thought he was taken off an hour ago" about nuno gomez.

so just like football, maths isnt one of jimmys strong points.

this is the same jimmy magee who suggested a card between red and yellow on the premiership one night.

as for mark kinsella. he doesnt speak until jimmy asks him a question. wake up mark.

at least having to listen to kenny cunningham saves us the pain of looking at his hair and make up disasters.

 

[ratmonkey]

Jimmy's losing it, he was singing about the Romanians the other night.

Motson trying to say Di Natale during Holland-Italy was really funny. He's lucky that Quagliarella didn't get a game.

But the best I've ever heard was an Italian commentator trying to pronounce O'Shea during a Champions League game: O Sheeee, O Shiiiiiiiiaaaaa. He must have tried 100 different variations and not one of them got even close.

He was going on about how Deco was playing at left half last night.
