I have just finished watching Russia’s pitiful capitulation against Spain in the semi-final of Euro 2008.
The Russians (who qualified ahead of England remember) have been very impressive, including a far from fortuitous win over the Netherlands. They had done enough to convince many football fans that they had what it takes to not only reach the final, but to win it.
Then, this evening, they performed like a local pub side. A pub side where the players had not met each other till the kick-off. And where three of them claimed to be “cricketers actually”. They were so lacking in creativity they made monotone German automaton Didi Hamann’s half-time analysis seem like a Sigfried & Roy spectacular.
I simply could not understand how a team could get so bad in such a short space of time. Then I checked my email and someone had sent me a link to the BBC Sports site which had the following news snippet.
“Russia’s players have been promised two gorgeous girls for every goal they score against Spain in tonight’s Euro 2008 semi-final by socialite Pyotr Listerman. ”
Hmmm.
One would imagine this to be an excellent incentive for any man who has ever seen a Bond movie. Clearly not. I can only assume that the movies lie, and also that Maria Sharapova is not indicative off Russian women as a whole. On a personal level, this is disappointing in the extreme. I have been saving for ages for my Russian road trip, and it seems those tennis lessons were a complete waste of time.
Well Pyotr, I think we have all learned a valuable lesson here tonight. No-one likes to have a minger forced upon them. Perhaps you should have promised each of them four Russian women if they lost?

Men are so let down by the media’s portrayal of stereotypes.
Us men think all Russian women are like Maria Sharapova, when clearly they’re not.
And I was under the impression as a teenager that all lesbians were absolutely gorgeous blondes who liked nothing better than to have a guy watch them doing “it”.
Bastard media!

What about all these Russian mail order brides then? there must be some pretty ones surely,
you could hardly sell someone on the premise of ugly eastern european mingers are so desperate to get out of the shithole that is Rusaia they’re willing to marry someone older than their Dad?
Beautiful Lonely Women looking for that Special Someone has a much better ring to it especially if it’s in capitals like wot I has put.
Anna Kournikova is pretty damn hot but I’m willing to concede she may be exception rather than the rule

Odd - its almost as if they have thrown the game because some russian mafia types are leaning on them as they have a bet on the other side. That would never happen though?
Or maybe they are in fact playing for the other side so to speak.

Maybe Gnarlyswine is onto something. I offer this as evidence that Russia does, indeed, have members of the fairer sex.
