What a relief!! I just hope Spain have something left for the semi-final and (maybe?) the final. Interesting how well Fabregas and Torres seemed to link up too...and Wenger was in the crowd...To be fair to Italy there was an awful lot of breathtaking skill on display from them despite the obvious more negative play

Sorry, only just come back to planet earth. I couldn't believe it when Fabregas said that was the first penalty of his professional career, what a moment to start.

If Spain can throw off this jinx then maybe...juuust maybe.


Mind you, if Russia play like they did the other night it'll be very very tough, but we could be in for a real footying treat.


Either way I'm really glad that Italy didn't get through regardless of my Spain fan status, such negative football has no place in my view,;I hope Germany wins for the same reason. Though I'm still highly impressed by Turkey's never-say-die spirit (something England can learn from) I'm much less impressed by their football.

Hate to say I told you so. ;-)

What's with all this bashing other nations, aren't we in twenty first century Europe, haven't we put all that behind us yet?


I really don't hold grudges against Fritz. Sooo the Bosh are better than us at penalties, who's fault is that. If we can't beat the Hun in 120 minutes then we only have ourselves to blame.

Personally I want the Krauts to win this game then lose to the Spics in the Final.


In fact there are so many teams that have put one over on us, shouldn't we hate everyone by now? (remeber the Aussies (do we have a good pejorative term for them?) at Upton Park with that massive "If we beat you at this you suck at EVERYTHING" banner?)

By now Keef you probably know exactly what I think of Spadeboy, and if he is from the Emerald Isle who is he to laugh at either England or Turkey.

Once again you are very brave when using the internet to hide behind. Just hope and pray that I never bump into you face to face because then I'd see just how "brave" you are paddy. Never mess with a Turk.

I've offered to meet you outside the Plough at 8 tonight, and we'll see if you score pussy paddy. Apart from the fact that you couldn't score in a brothel. See you at 8 if you got any balls which I doubt.

This is not the first time this arsehole has started making racially motivated remarks, and it's not the first time I offered to meet him and it's not the first he shit himself and went crying to his mum. If he insists on going down the racial road he'd better be prepared to back it up or shut up.


If he thinks it's clever well that's fine, but as I say don't start what you can't (definitely true in this idiots case) finish. My offer to meet him still stands. Let's see how popular he is when I introduce him to a few Turkish business owners in ED, and surrounding areas.

With respect, mind your business. If this idiot can't stand up for himself that's his look out. It's not the first time he's chosen to be racially provocative and I won't let it go.

    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
    • I love the fact that virtually everyone held their hands out when furlough payments were made yet can't equate massive debt with massive cash payments to keep the economy ticking over.   
    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
