EVEN BIGGER CONTROVERSY. This is quite unbelievable. Long ball over the top - and two French players are offside - but forget that, Thierry Henry juggles the ball CLEARLY with his hand before squaring for William Gallas to bundle in. The Republic of Ireland have been robbed here. Robbed


Live text - BBC website

A handled goal and a deflected goal off the post was all they could manage in 210 minutes of football. Ireland to be fair could have won it in 90 mins with most possession and most chances.

Wonder if UEFA will look at the henry incident. He deserves a suspension but no doubt UEFA will bottle it.

He will have extensive trial by media which will be worse. It will be shown around the world and his reputation will be harmed in the eyes of any fair minded person and this will be his punishment.


He will be a loner and atila will be his only friend. Thats worse than purgatory.

There people go again expecting the French to have some concept of sportsmanship in the first place.


So now what? I was counting on being able to support Ireland next year. Now all I can do is watch South Africa lose in the groups. Then what? Support England? I support England in most sports but the current football team is such a bunch of prima donna, semi-criminal chavs I don?t know if I can bring myself to do it.

    • When I had a property with a basement there would often be a pool of water in the centre. I was told it was related to the fluctuating height of the water table in the area (se22) and would not become a problem and the only way to get rid of it would be to get the whole place completely tanked. 
    • We've got a Victorian coal hole cellar with a mud floor and after a couple of severe water leaks, I've taken more of an interest in the state of the dampness.  I've been running a dehumidifier for the past couple of weeks following a small water pipe leak and whilst most of the floor is now bone dry, there are damp patches along most of the wall adjoining the next house, a large damp patch in the middle of the floor that will not dry even with the dehumidifier right next to it and a patch of wet mud in a small hollow in the middle of the cellar.  An expert that lent us industrial drying equipment following a flood from a burst mains pipe said there will always be damp, but I'm a bit concerned in case there is a fundamental problem - any ideas from anyone with similar?
