France vs Mexico

[Ian Royal]

And Roy Hodgson basing his punditry on France facing Algeria for some unknown reason


The BBC's other pundits sniggering behind their hands and not correcting him.

Ready for a good game (<optimistic smilie>)
I've got lots of tin and gonic... umm I mean... too much gin and tonic
And I've managed to push back a work deadline until July (so only five things to do by the end of next week, then)
So I'm relaxed and ready to enjoy some footie!
Go team
(who are we supporting?)
1-1

[Ian Royal]

Mexico of course. Basically anyone but the Italians are better than the French... and then it's too close to call.

[Sarah Star]

Did I hear right, they're being refereed by Ghandi?

[Ian Royal]

This ref is awful.

[Maquisard]

Oh, not quite as funny when you see it written: Khalil Al Ghamdi, but still

Nice quiet vuvuzela night -- Uruguay obviously knocked the stuffing out of the annoying swarms

Crowd chants... at last!

vuvuzelas as loud as ever on my stream

[Maquisard]

I obviously spoke to soon
TBF, I've got Abba on iTunes, so I can't really hear the TV anyway

[Baines]

At least (most of) you people are separ7ed from the one set of principals for whom you profess such disdain

Imagine instead that they could wade across, and in a matter of minutes

This ref is awful.

First sensible post on GF by IR for a while.


This game's wide open. While the French have seen more of the ball, the Mexicans look more likely when they get forward.

[RoyalChicagoFC]

^ That, and they really ought to quit lumping the ball forward from their own half when there are two blue shirts stood waiting to intercede

Or keep doing it all nite long, depending upon one's preference

Is it my TV or is the volume of them speaking going up and down?

It is - they're blatantly trying to block out those annoying horns, which is a good thing.
