They eeked out a bunch of 1-0 wins in South Africa, I guess they could do it again


they had Villa in SA who is a very good finisher and actually took some shots despite their playing style. sure they could still win but teams will be a lot more prepared for them as tournament progresses.

Kudos to the Irish fans. Their team is getting ****ed, and they still are singing out loud.

If Oezil doesn't try to keep going and just goes down at the end of the half that'd be a penalty shot to put us up 1-0 against spain, in which case they couldn't have scraped by with a 1-0.

I like to think they're so drunk they don't even know they lost. It's the only logical explanation in my mind.

I'm not gonna post the link, but there's a pic of an Irish fan in the crowd sucking some Croatian chick's boobie at the end of the last match. The Irish are there for the party.

As they should, they were robbed in the last major tournament.

I thought Mandzukic sucked ass when transferred to Wolfsburg. I take it all back.
I'd always thought of propane as a dignified lady. But she can also be a dirty girl.

Croatia on 25/1 to win the Euros.

I'm mighty tempted to stick in a 20 there.

Last time I did something on a hunch I bet Forlan to top score in the world cup and worked out pretty well.

Decisions!
