Just tuned in and I’m already bored.

Can we discuss goats again?

at the risk of enraging Arminius,

i cant go that Alistair Johnston,
terrible player who can be a bit thuggish at times

Harsh, harsh yellow.

Yep, I’m no fan of FIFA’s money grabbing commercial breaks.

They are the worst. But I agree with him that it is the USA that should be blamed in principle more than FIFA. Had it not been for the USA, it would not have happend during this WC.

It’s a given that big business wants to commercialize and maximize profit as much as possible. Yes, that’s a very American trait. It is FIFA’s tournament and we are possibly witnessing Pandora’s box being opened on the way to an extra slot for adverts. Ugh. I very much hope not.

It should be banished as it is no good for the game. It breaks momentum.

It won’t go back now.
Anyone betting against a 10 second ad appearing for every free kick soon?

I fear you are right, but I hope not.

Anyway, Morocco has been extraordinary disappointing. They have a much higher ceiling than this, and it is pathetic that this is then how they play in an 8/8.
So they better play better in the next half. As for Canada, much better, but sort of limited. Those factors combined have made for a poor game, that I for one, hope Flobbs won’t be including in his judgement of the football quality of the tournament.

It’s not as if Infantino had his arm twisted for the breaks and he isn’t going to disband them for the next WCs.

The bold prick is as greedy and corrupt as they come.

I wasn’t defending the bastard. I was just noting that these are made for US televison, where this god-awful travesty is accepted, so I for one, blame the US more for that reason.

You can say that again

Why does Laura Woods always look like she’d rather be anywhere else at that particular moment?
