Never a penalty augie




If there was any doubt in my mind, the fact that martin o'neill argued against the decision convinced me that it must be a certain penalty cos he doesnt know his arse from his elbow (useless c.unt) :evil: :evil:

I think that they will lose this game regardless, but Australia are def the better team in this game - if they had any c.unt capable of delivering in a good cross from the wing they would probably be ahead by now :roll:

Saw everyone losing their shit on twatter (what's new) about VAR so had a look at the penalty decision and if you're going to jump with your arm up like that and the ball hits it don't start crying when you give away a penalty.

That's exactly my point - it seems that when you give a penalty with var there is uproar, but when you dont bother to use it there is uproar too :roll:

Disappointed for Peru. Really passionate, talented side that played attacking, creative football. No end product though :(

You're welcome to call be names but, if England don't win the world cup (which they will :wink: ), then I hope Argentina do it. :shock: :D

Partly because Ive always liked Argentina (I was too young to hold a grudge over Falklands or the hand of god, but the right age to hold a grudge against Germany for 1990 and 1996)... but mainly because Messi winning the world cup would deeply upset ladyboy :lol:

I've always wanted the Germans to win them because I loved their players when I was a kid and the Oirish German jersey thing etc. But if Germany don't win it then I too hope Argentina do as it would sicken the ladyboy and his droves of snowflake fanboys and confirm what we all already know: Messi is better than the tranny and his freakish Adams apple. 8)

Are you referring to your good old friend Cristiano? I don't know why you guys insist on this 'ladyboy' reference, I really have no idea.

He seems like a good chap to me.

It's a good game now tbf, great finish by the Croatian lad but what the fuck was cabellero doing :lol:

It's nice seeing clips of that cheating little fat *word censored* (not you DB or onebard :lol: ) knashing his finger nails at hundred miles an hour like he's just done some lines and I don't mean "I will not use my hand to score" types of lines :? :lol:

Argentina fans really went through the mill last night..Horrible night for them.as it all unravelled before them..At least we didn't see the modern football bollix of fans looking dejected after defeat until they suddenly see themselves on the big screen and then they suddenly start waving and jumping around like demented morons.
Shambles on the pitch too, out of their depth against Croatia , imagine what is coming if they do get through and face a top team getting into their stride. They would be better off meekly going home next week.
