The World Cup

If Hawkstone ever sponsor any club it will be an egg chasing one.

Nobody is frothing at the mouth except you. Though, having had the misfortune of seeing you in real life, I’m aware that dribbling froth is your factory setting.

Rise above it @NewStyleOfPlay , you are much better than that.

When was that? Were you wearing a Che Guevara style beret?

Anyway, back to the football…

A well deserved win for France in the face of some agricultural grade assault & battery from Uruguay & one of the worst refereeing performances I’ve witnessed since last season in the National League.

Uruguay have often been cynical and dirty in the past, but you cant point the figure at them yesterday.

I thought they were playing Paraguay? Didn’t Uruguay get knocked out in the group and went home is disgrace?

…and empty pint glasses. We did try to get Jeremy to sign the contract himself, but he was arguing with a local council planning committee about a hedge, so we just signed it with his manager instead.”The new kit is available for pre-order tomorrow at 9:00 AM. Supporter patience is requested at the club shop, as we are currently trying to figure out how to fit a pallet of beer through the back doors.

For a slit second, as I scrolled through this morning’s non-sense, I actually got taken in by this!

Thank goodness it’s not true as the selection of beers is bad enough - I drink the bottled Ruby beer - with Hawkstone there wouldn’t be any choice.

What a lot of effort to post something so spectacularly unfunny

That will teach me to post at the arse end of the day, should have gone to my bed rather than posting that.

You are absolutely correct it should have said Paraguay.

A common theme on the politics thread (aka luxury beliefs aka total toilet aka Micra’s first LSD trip) is that left wingers are compassionate and loving people while everyone else is a heartless bastard. The reality is more like punks and hippies where the punks were nice people pretending to be nasty and the hippies were nasty people pretending to be nice.

Back on topic. MEXICAN WAVE!!!

At the end of the day, everyone knows that forcibly making fans drinks Rebellion is a Trotyskyite conspiracy. Why do you think they brew beers called things like Rebellion Red (Scare).

Back on topic. I’m prepared to deal with excuses about altitude, playing a host nation with an incredible home record, and some of Tuchel’s selections if England lose tonight. But please, please don’t let it be to a dodgy decision that gets talked about for the next 50 years of hurt.

In the words of the great Tim Vine:

“We’re going in”
“We’re going to win”
“Then we’re coming back out again”

It really is that simple.

[Glenactico]

The overturning of bans for political and commercial reasons is another stain on FIFA.

Surely Uefa and Conmebol have to start getting serious about a breakaway partnership.

You started the politics thread so you can watch people go at each other and pretend youre above it all while making funny right-wing asides about how angry woke lefties are (with or without comedy clips) so surely you’re pleased with the results?

I started the politics thread because one of the owners of this place said that somebody should start a politics thread because people were getting annoyed that political posts were creeping into the football threads. It seems to have achieved its purpose.
