El Pibe

Obviosuly I hated him from day one, but i guess for some who thought him the great hope in politics it must be a bit like this

You could try hunting down at the wood near sainsburys on dog kennel hill, there are loads of beetle hotels and it's an area known for stag beetles. Lovely shots, I'm seriously hoping the disco scorpion wasn't a londoner!!

It doesn't help. I have a dedicated home-cinema/gaming room and have managed to use it about twice. Even worse since Piblet numero uno has rather taken to Pro-Evo 2009!!

uncleglen was just showing us how to talk absolute shite. selfelss my friend ;)

A minority of England fans have been a national shame for a long time, but post France 98 with passport confiscations etc it's largely a thing of the past. Didn't England win Fans of the Tournament in Portugal 2004? I was in a Irish pub when Landsdowne road got torn up. I apologised profusely though the Irish reaction was more one of pity than disgust.

+1 SJ Oh shit, no like burton needed

Oh my, pressed post one second before they scored

Best posts ever pgc and numbers. Was gutted for a bit tonight then realised that was the final I was scared would happen in 2010, so happy to have won it frankly. And the Dutch have overridden my resentment of their awfulness that time and I'll be happy if they win the whole thing, though I think Spain can still do the unachievable and go on to win it after a good humbling. The Roos are shit which makes me happy.

Wasn't it Mexico who had a shocking decision against them in the last World Cup (and had it replayed in front of the whole crowd)? Anyway, another shocker!

"Mr J Redknapp? Is that you?" ;) he he!! I did mean that in stark contrast to the blatant fixing of that other game 'oh shit he's going to score quick wave my flag'

"The cynics might say that the refs have had a directive to make sure the hosts progress." I tend to think they feel the pressure rather than out and out fixing...but it is FIFA so you never know. ANd of course that Spain S. Korea match in 2002 might suggest you're right, I'm still pissed off about that. To be fair to the ref. it was no penalty last night, but there was contact and we've seen them given a thousand times.

excellent judgement, they have only the heat to fear after all!! I went for a tense-but-dull-for-the-neutral 0-0

Haha, nicely put :)

all to play for, everyone on 1 pt otta. i too went 2-1, though hovered over 1-1 for a bit thinking opening games are usually tense affairs. and sure enough brazil misfired and depite being a bit lumbering croats more than held their own. so 1-1 was spiritually the real score ;)

I don't think i've seen a tighter table!!!! Ots with the wooden spoon at the moment.

For anyone who's actually been paintballing you'll know the costs dramatically escalate with ammunition, depending on how trigger happy you are. Some of my (more lunatic) friends on stags have easily spent upwards of a ton. This just sounds more like lack of experience on gringle's part rather than a scam, though perhaps they could have been more transparent about the probable costs of a day out.

RTE alright as it went. Ill watch the beeb tomorrow though

Did the ref just put squeezy cream on the pitch?

ooh blimey, fabregas to chelsea, is poor parkdrive going to pop an aneurysm?!

England's national football team visited an orphanage in Brazil yesterday. "It's heartbreaking to see their sad little faces with no hope" said Jose, age 6

but if you have 1 steel sword, 1 iron sword, 1 spear and 1 rifle you can stab, slash, hack AND shoot!

maybe browser and ios versions a bit different then. can you carry multiple weapons?

what the hell is a killer punch? obviously some premium content in them that iOS hills!!! Marsh is extrememly useful, take a charm!!

I can, because it's been lovingly done, and goes back to that stuff about all the best effects happening in the imagination and the game designers just have to take care of the gameplay. once you start manufacturing bullets you'll feel confident to use the rifle, i'd take 20 bullets out per foray. can't believe i fininshed it, never got to use my laser gun in anger! Mind you, armed with your spear, iron sword, steel sword and bayonet, you never really need it. Also if the master comes visiting, give him your medecine and go with evasion. and did you find the marsh?

This made me chuckle http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/world-cup-2014/expert-norwegian-guide-how-pick-3669175 I miiiiight just go with: Spain (Born), then in descending order, England (grew up here), Bosnia (had amazing tourist free holiday there), Croatia (been there a couple of times and have good friend there), Argentina (hope to move there in a few years time for a spell), Germany (i'm quite partial to the bosch, and a bit hun myself) Belgium (would be nice to have someone unusual do it) and will be booing: France (goes without saying really) Portugal (amazing the effect one man can have, i just like watching him cry) Russia (today's cartoon villains, kind of comforting to have them back in an old world order sort of way, but in a fitwomen rather than shotputters kind of manner) Holland would once have been much higher, but after their final shenanignas last time round they're relegated to last)
