World Cup Final

[FoxForceFive]

Surely no-one will actually watch it on ITV when you can watch it on the BBC!

I don't really understand why anyone really gives two fucks who wins out of Netherlands or Spain, although I'd like to see Van Bommel sent off or carried off, because he's a massive zlatan

I think Spain have less cunts playing for them, but on the other hand, there is Dirk...

Nah, still don't give a fuck

MVB is 9/1 to be sent off. The next player is 22/1. Jesus.

MVB will surely be a marked man tonight and will surely get book at least.

You must be joking. Lineker as compere, Lawrenson as summariser? F'ck. That.

I see they're happy for them to be playing in red and orange tonight, when which much more dubious 'clashes' in other games they were eager to wear their other kits.

When Liverpool plays Wolves it's never orange vs red.

Marketing bullshit.


edit: ignore me, what a cunt of a post 🙁

I know Torres has been poor but it will be weird not to see him line out tonight.

 

[SaintGeorge67]

He'll come on and score.

 

[ILD]

Would be nice for him. I can Spain scoring first here and controlling the game.

 

[SaintGeorge67]

BBC call them the Netherlands, ITV call them Holland...

 

[SaintGeorge67]

I thought Kuyt could defend? 😉

 

[Spionkop69]

Both sides looking to get people booked. How classy.

Both sides squealing in imaginary agony and then getting up 10 seconds later when no card is imminent. Wish I'd backed a red card now.

BBC are right.

ITV are dumb fucks.

 

[Farkmaster]

Wow, Van Bommel actually gets a deserved yellow for a change.

 

[Frogfish]

Christ that was a bad foul by De Jong - could have killed Xabi !

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

How on earth was that not a red card?

 

[Farkmaster]

How on fucking earth did De Jong not get a red there. That was a flying side kick to Xabi's sternum.

 

[Frogfish]

Very poor match so far.

 

[Delinquent]

That's incredible. So far from the ball it's not true.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Webb bottled that. Red card all day every day.

 

[bobtkelpie]

Webb seems determined to send somone off... 5 yellows in the first 30 mins...

 

[SaintGeorge67]

See, once Xabi leaves Liverpool he can no longer draw a red card

Well they were all pretty much deserved and he had the perfect opportunity to send someone off but didn't.

he doesn't seem that determined. De Jong shouldn't still be out there.

 

[manwithnoname]

Haha, apart from that, yeah

 

[ILD]

Would have been hilarious if Casillas conceeded there.

 

[Friend no. 2]

I'm not even going to try spell his name, but that was some air shot.

Yep. For once all the cards have been deserved from Webb. In fact he's looked like he's handled it well (apart from the De Jong decision).

But is anyone else sick of the Spaniards surrounding the ref even though its obvious the card is coming or has already been given. Its really grating.

 

[Farkmaster]

Van Bommel should have been sent off in previous matches, and surely will get sent off in this if things continue as they have. He's a filthy player.

He may well be, I'd fucking love him to replace Mascher though.

 

[Farkmaster]

Spain, as with other games, can't find width early enough in the play to do damage.
