Sorry but no one gives a flying flip about I****

My main interest in that game was hoping he'd get injured.

Wissa adding 10 million to his transfer fee - we might now get 11 :-D

I hope you were being sarcastic when mentioning the rat because if you weren't you should seriously seek treatment

Scott, I wish I could be enthousiastic about this World Cup, but I'm not. I have tried to avoid it so far, although it was nice to see that certain players are doing well...

Saibari, Periŝić, Wissa etc. But not Rat face. He can fuck off (I'm with Stephen on this one)

And Tino getting injured before it even started... FFS.

By the way, Holland isn't a team, or even a country for that matter. But since the supermarkets here continue to pump out shit orange merchandise with 'Holland' printed on it, it would be unfair of me to criticise your use of the word.

I hope that you continue to enjoy the tournament, and as always I look forward to reading your contributions.

Cheers

The Netherlands. One of my very good friends is Dutch 🙂

You have very good taste in friends. You can add me as a Dutch acquaintance, albeit with a radgey Geordie background 🤣

Never been there, but it’s sort of on the bucket list. It’s like 4 hours on the train… or more. Closest I’ve been was when Mrs Vee and I did a mini-tour of NL on the motorbikes.

Brilliant, thanks Scott

It was Austin Powers that swung me as well Scott! He’s quiet our beloved Mike Myers isn’t he? I reckon Trump didn’t attend as it would be awkward having him sit next to Dr. Evil! I am enjoying it despite the fact I have to navigate the i player at seven am each morning. Nice article:)

I wasn’t pleased for him, not even deep down. I hate that stupid countdown to kickoff. Otherwise very much getting into the World Cup swing - an 11pm kick off for Scotland v Morocco is way past my bedtime but I’m going to give it a go 🙂 I’m a bit of a lightweight 😂

Great recap. I love the World Cup, and try to push to the sides the negatives to enjoy attacking goal-filled exotic games between far flung places like Narnia vs Westeros.
