They did a feature from that match at half time during the Paraguay game on Saturday. Eusebio was immense.

Goodision looks the same today as it did 34 years ago.

Capello gets all hypocritical, telling Italian TV - "I don't understand why he didn't speak with me, I read yesterday that John Terry said this. I don't understand why he didn't speak with me. When you speak you have to speak privately and not with you (the media)."

From The Guardian - According to our soon-to-be-published Paper View, since 1982, England have won 62% of all World Cup games shown on the BBC, but just 30% of those broadcast by ITV. Tomorrow's England v Slovenia game: on the Beeb.


When I mentioned this earlier I was joking.

My brother has lucked out - a charity he's worked hard for before asked him to look after 100 HIV affected African kids by escorting them to 8 games at the World Cup if he could cover his flight across. He's been working hard, wearing his kilt to most games and blogging his once in a lifetime experience here.


He got allocated Bloemfontein as base and so has had the various joys of Greece vs Nigeria and soon, Honduras vs the Swiss. But today it's perhaps the biggest group game at that venue as the home nation take on the bickering frogs - and it should be a good game considering the situation....


It's also where England will play Germany in Second round if they come runner up in Group C,although perhaps might want to take the tartan skirt off for that one!

If Spain beat Chile on Friday night they will finish ahead of Chile regardless of scoreline. Spain will top the group unless the Swiss can win by a bigger margin than the Spanish come Friday night.


If both the Swiss and Spain win 1-0 on Friday night, that would leave Chile and Switzerland in joint second place with the same goal difference of +1. I believe that Chile would progress in second place due to their head to head meeting with Switzerland which they won.

      T.D. PLUMBFIX SOLUTIONS LTD

      By red5 · Posted

      I have had multiple jobs completed at my home by T.D. PLUMBFIX SOLUTIONS LTD, and I wouldn't go to anyone else now. They always come at the agreed day/time, I have never been asked to rearrange. The jobs have always been completed to extremely high standards, and as a perfectionist myself, I appreciate this level of care and detail. I'm grateful of the clear up afterward too, leaving me very little to do after the job is done. I am always blown away by the speed and efficiency  - no waffle, no flannel, just sheer hard work from start to finish. In summary - a highly professional first class service. Don't hesitate to call T.D. PLUMBFIX SOLUTIONS LTD, if you like excellence and trade people that will respect your home.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      Or increase tax.  The freezing of personal allowances is one way, not what I would choose.  On principle I don't care if the rich immigrate.  The main parties could have been more honest before the election.  Reform is deluded.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By HeadNun · Posted

      I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here.

      You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect
