Colombians got what they deserved imo. Fuck all.

Was not expecting that equaliser

Have moved some of this thread to AberdDNA as it didn't really belong in the transfer chat

From what i've seen, Colombia are shit.

According to the stats Belgium should have won that easily. Really though Honda was gonna drive it home at the end

Was hoping we’d hold on for a bit longer, but then vergtonghen scores a fluke and sideshow bob pops up with the equaliser. Ah well. Still all to play for yet. Hopefully Honda pops up with the winner

Nothing to do with that prick Putin. They are a horrible football team and a negative one at that. Not saying Spain deserved it, because they didn’t, but Russia were not playin football.

i've been to / driven through Aberdeen in Delaware, it was a complete shit hole. Reasonable baseball team apparently.

Hoping they win it, Jute. Classy team, normally at least That’s a crazy prospect la don

Schmeichel unlucky, some incredible saves. But I’m pleased Croatia are through. Someone needs to fucking stop Russia and I’m hoping it’ll be them.

I see Murray announced he wasn't going to compete in this years Wimbledon, big shame, but hopefully the right call to let his rehab continue.

What a strike from Cavani to put Uruguay back in the lead. This World Cup really has been a joy to watch.

A wins a win, especially with new boys starting. Anyone know how the new partnership looked?

Sounds like I missed a cracker ! Will dig out the highlights at half time

that is a crazy amount of loyalty points

Personally, I felt that was another one we should have tied up in jan. after that it becomes difficult. If that’s true, then I very much doubt we’ll have a chance.

Should actually be a decent game. The game that looks least appealing is Switzerland sweden.

Awful game, the fact that the Belgians were happy to be "winning" 5 cards to 2 sums up the game.

I know, and it’s all good for debate, keeps forums like this going. Would be boring as sin if we always agreed on everything. I apologise, my point re Scottish coverage wasn’t really aimed at you, it was more in response to what I’ve read elsewhere and it genuinely makes me cringe. Some folk are just completely blinded by their hatred, whilst completely forgetting that Scottish coverage would be equally if not more nauseating. Moaning for moaning sake. But I also think that no such thing as non-partisan coverage truly exists in football. I very much doubt any country that has their national team in the tournament have anything other than biased coverage. It’s just that our situation is somewhat unique in that technically we have four countries under one broadcasting umbrella. I can guarantee that the dutch will be laughing at the Germans as much as the English, if not more so.

Cracking photos Elgin, especially the last one!

I know that’s the point, But you know the reasons for it. That reason is a whole non footballing discussion. Folk comparing those countries coverage is totally irrelevant. The bbc (less itv as they’re not public I don’t think) are a public company that broadcast for the majority of their customer base. Rightly or wrongly, given that no other home nations qualified, that is the English. If you felt so strongly , boycott the bbc, you don’t need to watch it, especially given the technology out there. It would be a total waste of license fee money for them to send more than one team to cover the same stuff. I doubt the Scottish coverage would be any better anyway, they’d concentrate of the two cunts from Glasgow. Non biased coverage doesn’tappear to exist in the UK.

I like how the Sun played it like they had snubbed the dhimmery

Predictors would have taken a battering with those first couple of games. Brazil have been good but Serbia unfortunate not to have scored. Even the kiwis are laughing at the Germans going out. Amazed it’s registered. Was disappointed there wasn’t more laughing at the Aussies

Don’t disagree with that but surely we should be offloading a striker then? I’d rather we didn’t waste a wage for someone tonsit on the bench. Agree with LA , would prefer a youngster to do that.

Amazed his skin will cope out there, doesn’t look like he’s ever seen the sun
