Football (Soccer)

Come on England lions gonna roar tonight

I took great joy in BFBS playing 'Don't cry for me Argentina' right after the 2002 game in Sapporo. I was driving through Cologne when that came on, it was glorious.

Argentina get a yellow card for every 22 fouls.
England get a yellow for every 7 fouls.

I seem to have misplaced my tin-foil hat...oh wait, there it is...

[mclaincausey]

The fact that Argentina celebrate the “hand of god” as if it isn’t a completely shameful disgrace makes them a villain by default. The way FIFA treats them makes it even worse.

I have no quarrel with Messi though.

[Nick]

Latest is that FIFA have appointed Messi's favourite ref to officiate this evening

[Kasi]

Read that yesterday

[goosehd]

Big question for today's game: How will everyone be watching? Local pub, group of friends over,...

@goosehd

I am covering the incident manager shift tonight so will be watching from home but getting paid to watch

[Tago Mago]

@goosehd probably with some of the neighbours at my house. They’re all kind enough to feel sorry for me when we lose. Which hopefully won’t happen at this World Cup
