The equaliser sumed up what's great about the dutch team, robben's cynical dive what's awful.


It was naive of the defender as they had it well covered, but robben, tut tut tut.


The piblet has gone crazy over the world cup, is always acting out imaginary games, and penalties, but the thing he most of does is throw himself to the floor clutching his face and rolling around. Its equal parts hilarious and utterly depressing

Sorry did this hapen on the pitch while millions of viewers looked on? And did it happen on 3 ocassions? Regardless of who the little rat plays for he's out of order and he's been punished. Instead of griping about it how about moving on, or better still admitting he's a wrong un rather than trying to delect the flack on to another side issue? How many times must Liverpool and it's fans try to defend the indefensible, the T shirts issued for the Evra affair were enbarrassing, and this is going the same way. He's probably off to Barca anyway, we'll see if you feel the same way if does bugger off to Spain.

But you've only brought this up BECAUSE of the Suarez incident, you wouldn't have given it a second thought had that NOT happened. Yes it's awful yes it's despicabe, but so is Chewy Suarez. Better?

And that is the point I've been trying to put over to Anna.

Good that he's admitted what happened. And nice that he's apologised to the player, especially after Chiellini said the following the other day, which really impressed me.

"Now inside me there's no feelings of joy, revenge or anger against Suarez for an incident that happened on the pitch and that's done. There only remain the anger and the disappointment about the match.


At the moment my only thought is for Luis and his family, because they will face a very difficult period.


I have always considered unequivocal the disciplinary interventions by the competent bodies, but at the same time I believe that the proposed formula is excessive. I sincerely hope that he will be allowed, at least, to stay close to his team mates during the games because such a ban is really alienating for a player."

    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
    • Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.  
    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.
