You need to press 'Reply to Topic' for your replies to be seen Taff, the comment button is useless and should be scrapped.

Of course I'd never dream of mentioning a foreign rivals opening line of their national anthem when Wales qualify for a major football tournament.

I can say this with every confidence because it will never ever happen - rofl!!!

I wonder if it's worth learning the words to a song of my own?

How does it go???

I remember!!

In the Euro 2008 matches, we were in the bar at Salbris, (campsite in France - lovely, at the side of a lake, and very friendly manager and staff) and the clientele was mainly Dutch and French. In the bar the manager jokingly set 'sides' a Dutch side and a French side when the football was on. He knew we were English (perhaps the only English on site), and laughingly asked us 'Which side are you sitting? You must choose'. We chose the French side, but when Holland scored my OH picked up his plastic chair and his beer, and changed 'sides'.

This caused such a laugh from both sides, and some good humoured jokes about each of the nationalities, that firstly we were bought a drink by a Dutch couple, and then the bar manager gave us a bottle of wine for adding to the atmosphere!

We had a really good night - and neither of us watch football normally! In fact, what was the result this afternoon........ haven't heard.........!!!!

Parksy,

As a Welshman Living in Germany, I really hope England win so that all these Germans stop beeping their Bl**dy horns all night when they win a game. That said I won't be too dishartend if Ze Germans win, that would mean more parties in the town.

I see this world cup has turned out just like World War Two........

The French surrendered early (again)

The Yanks arrive at the last minute

And we're left to fight the bloody Germans!

Talk about good planning.

We are at our third CC site having arrived today at Slinfold.

Having seen the TV reception was listed as fair I was optomistic but not a whimper. Even the warden can't get a signal with his dish :O(

Got my son texting me the score and a text just came in, one down already. I'm gutted.

Perhaps someone upstairs is looking after me afterall, not wanting me to see it.

Whatever happens they will need to up their efforts after the performance against Slovenia.

I couldn't believe the plaudits that the media were giving England after that game, they must have been watching a different one to me.

It's beem lovely to see the flags adorning cars; houses; businesses etc; everyone feeling patriotic!! Not today, I've seen a number of cars with the white stumps of where their England flags used to be - didn't last long did it.

The cricket's going well if anyone want's to re-deploy their flags!!

Not only now do we have the world cup pumped down our throats but also Wimbledon - when is the broadcasting media going to offer a programme of interest and the press something interesting to read which does not have a sporting bias? - (now ducking under the table from the flack) LOL.

I'm hoping Argentina and Germany thrash it out to extra time and penalty shootouts. That should knacker them both whoever gets through to the next round.

Cheers

I would have thought that a channel could be dedicated entirely to sport. That way everyone would be happy. I feel sorry for viewers who are expecting to see a favourite prog only to find that sport has replaced their choice.Personally I am only mildly interested in the final result (can't stand the overpaid, oversexed prima donnas who kick the ball about!)
