Oli – and a restraining order is just playing hard-to-get?

marycub – “Go England”? Are you American?

matt – we should all ask for one…

amadea – or they can just curl one out on the pitch. I made a poo at School, a fake dog one.

Are footballers allowed to go out during the match when they need to make a poo?

Mr. A – I’m afraid she’s moved on now, but
I just googled her and she’s got an address where you can send fan mail and request autographs…

I’m about to ask for one

I know my place with football and i’m not afraid to say its as far away as possible. I’m not anti footie, quite the opposite, comradery etc is great, it just bores me so i dont go to the pub with the lads and i dont watch it with the bf. It’s no big deal it just doesn’t interest me. But go england nonetheless.

Obviously world cup commentator cant use a normal microphone, that would just be stupid. Instead he has to don one that makes the wearer look like he has a large facial growth.

And a woman is always flirting unless she gets a restraining order.

greavsie – a ’special’ cuddle?

Matt – Which one? One or two of them sound quite fit!

sectioned – hello, I think perhaps they’re just copying the referees?…

What the hell are those things stuck to there faces? I want to rip them off and lick a tissue to rub their cheeks clean, just like my Mum used to do. Do they talk really quietly so that the microphone has to be millimetres away from their face? Is it because of all the years shouting obscene comments on the pitch (apart from lineker-he is a good lad.)

It reminds me of a friend who, when eating cornflakes, always got one stuck on his chin. He did not remove it for half an hour or more despite repeated requests from myself. Drove me crazy.

I used to taunt one of my Uni mates because she said she liked football.

She went on to be a sports reporter for Radio 1.

Which, I guess, makes me a bit of a tosser.

Did you position yourself for a sneeky celebratory cuddle when England scored?

with the woman that is….

Chairwoman – So she was actually flirting with me?

By: Chairwoman

Mr Angry, Mr Angry, you poor deluded soul. The affection for football, as with extremely loud music, diminishes exponentially with the placing of the ring on the finger.

The Chairman and I spent many a happy hour talking about and playing Fantasy Football, since he died, I haven’t watched, played or missed either.

NF – I think you two definitely know what she meant

BoT – Hockey is for girls in skirts.

Asking for a date after a refused awe stuck proposition of marraige is often a good move.

Now this football thing, I’ve been watching because the boys have decided they’re England supporters. Giving out a yellow card, that’s rather nice of the ref. Why do they get so angry when he gives them a red as well?

If it isn’t played on ice, its too slow…

Ellie, where I come from, “rooting” means something else entirely.

I think.

Unless that’s what you meant.

ellie – goading? Moi?

Shamash – It’s seems there are a few, see ellie above!

RD – This is why cupboards under the stairs were invented.

Oli – several, in the whole world?

There are several women who follow football as passionately as blokes, I have been out with a couple, and I can honestly say that this is NOT a good thing.

Firstly the woman will agree with you up untill you are in the pub with your mates, whereupon, using the information she gained from talking to you earlier, rip your entire perspective of the worldcup to shreds, ridiculing your suggested tactics, and pointing out that the player you thought should be cut from the team is just about to score on the big TV behind her.

The ones that annoy most me are the women who say that they love football, insist on coming to the game, then spend the whole match complaining about the noise, asking what everyone is gettng so worked up about, asking to go home and generally just being a pain in the ass.

I have not enjoyed the communal joy of watching the world cup this year. Its the price of having an under 5 child. No time to watch football, not when you have to play tennis on demand or continually climb up a ladder to reach yet another misplaced ball on the garage roof.

I am planning on watching the next world cup in about 8-12 years time.

They’re more numerous than you think. Girls who appreciate and love to play the big sport and boomig thanks to more woman’s football being played and that film with Keira Knightly in a sports bar. Bend it like Beckham.

On a separate note WAG coverage is the most irritating thing known to mn apart from divers. I would like to cut down Posh Spice with a lawnmower, a la the final scene from Braindead

You’re goading us, aren’t you?

I do love the World Cup for the comaraderie you mentioned. It’s like a festival. But this year the bastard refs are passing out cards like they’re at a massive leaving do. Bastards. The yellow card on Puyol last night was a farce. Henry is a cry baby.

Humf. (Yes, I was rooting for Spain despite their prediliction to disappoint).
