    The question is in which new and novel way France will further make itself the laughing stock of the world this time. Will the players even show up? Will they fight each other on the pitch? Fight with the staff? Will they publicly tell Domenech to 'va te faire *******, sale fils de ****'


    As far as I'm concerned, they don't need to bother showing up.

    Today marks the exact anniversary of one the greatest matches of one of the greatest world cups, France - Brazil in 1986. Two phenomenal sides, so much talent and beautiful football gathered on one single pitch. 1982 and 1986, in strangely parallel ways both Brazil and France mesmerised their fans with a mix of beauty and tragedy, both countries fielding some of their most beloved teams ever.
    ESPN put it on their list of ten greatest World Cup matches of all time.

    O tempora, o mores!! What has become of the Bleus, of France! To think this was once her face:

    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    -says "no caps when we lose, s'il vous plait "monger. PJ and Fragony, no matter what they advocate, have far better profiles when it comes to reliability and stability. Heh.

    Huzzah! I finally got 3 pts for a correct prediction! Now for tomorrow...

    0 - 0
    2 - 1
    0 - 2
    2 - 1

    It's funny how Nigeria could progress with just one win and two defeats, whereas in Spain's group, it's quite likely that Spain/Chile/Swissland may each end up on 6 pts, leaving one of them behind.
    At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.

    By the by, did any of you come across with a team that in both matches proved to be favorites for the cup ?

    I mean, no matter how much they score, none of the participants have yet to play like definite competitors for the cup so far, if you ask me.
