You guys just don't listen. Italy will win the world cup this year, the Germans fought hard but looked looked weak, Italy dominated the game and have an unbreakable defence.

France will loose.

Italia 2006!

Ballacks. I had ten quid on Germany at evens with a mate. He was dead keen, I accepted the on-paper best of it without hesitation.

It's a bet I haven't minded losing, to watch the game of the tournament. Superb goals, superb play.

One day this century England will play like that; freely with confidence, certainty, and balls. Maybe.

Well-played! Viva Italia.

Question: Will Mr. Rooney apologise for losing his temper at mid-field?

Apparently he gets to speak to FIFA soonly. Or so the Philly Inquirer reported...

He has already said it 'was the only place he could put his foot' as he is a big lad and he was like off balance innit.

Chuckle.

Not a chance, Britain is too obsessed with celeb culture and individualism. German and Italy played beautiful team football.

England only talk about Rooneys and Beckhams.

If England expect to win, stop letting the Sun etc. run your country.

Who is 'we'? Enough with the passive/aggressive thing. You are 'here' well enough for most of the time, except when you decide the whingeing Poms aren't quite good enough. I hate and try to fight the influence of the Sun as any other decent human being; I don't see why I should to be blamed for it by someone with politics clearly opposed to everything the Sun represents knowingly choosing to live in the country where it is the biggest selling newspaper. If you are offloading responsibility, you are part of the problem.

I live in The International Free City of London, not England.

Oh, and isn't The Daily Mail the biggest selling paper?

Try a bit harder than that, eh? or we'll start talking about New Zealand football...

Nope. It's your soaraway Sun. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sun

Everything about England that is cruel, reactionary and odious, perhaps because it is distilled and filtered through the executive editorial policies of...an Australian.
