Thoroughly enjoyed the Iceland-Argentina clash, the Germany-Mexico clash and the Brazil-Switzerland clash. What I love is a good contest. Not one sided rubbish. Early days yet, I know but I hope the momentum continues. The team that I am rooting for, is Iceland. Good luck with that Kiwi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I simply don't choose to play. It's nothing personal. It's very simple, Rick. If it is not something I have the confidence in betting my own money then I don't play. American football, basketball, baseball...these are sports I know inside and out and will put money down in Las Vegas. And I will play the pools and pick-em contests. But soccer, especially World Cup? I have neither the expertise nor the passion to go through all the brackets and decipher one team's chances over another. I couldn't tell you the difference between Ghana and Russia and Iran, other than their team colours, if I tried. Iceland and Germany have my support but I'll see only 10% of the matches during the World Cup, at best. If soccer truly is the world's game, you don't need me in your WC contest. There are thousands of people on this forum that are not from the U.S. So I would think that the WC contest draws better than our NFL and MLB contests. All this love for Iceland. I thought that was the Australia flag for a minute. I may take a light shot on Australia to beat Denmark because of the 3 yellow cards Denmark has in their pockets.

The guy did NOTHING. He lifted his arms in the air and incidental contact to the face of the guy. The ball was no where near the offensive player. He never had a chance to score. And they give those shit dicks a free goal? What kind of shit is this? Shoved $100 up my ass. Now I need Columbia -1 to win like $150. A 3 teamer and 4 teamer. All the rest winners. Also have Columbia with a couple other teams and Spain can cash me out also. On a smaller one. England screwed, blued and tattoed me. What a fucking shitty performance. And why wasn't Vardy there? The guy can score. He does not miss like the rest of them. He was on team England two weeks ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chillumpuffer Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Far from being a shitty performance, England looked the better side and played the better football and thoroughly deserved the win. If anyone wants to complain then take the referee. 2 blatant penalties denied by a ref who didn't know what the fuck he was doing. It has been said that the VAR (video assistant referee) was supposed to help the officials in deciding marginal decisions. Well can anyone tell me why this wasn't used when Kane was wrestled to the ground twice in the box? Fucking joke FIFA. Also our keeper only touched the ball a couple of times, once to pick the ball out of the net. When Tunisia scored their only mindset was to stick 11 players behind the ball and settle for the point. Well more fool them. All in all 3 points and very encouraging. We can only build confidence from this. Oh and Rick, Vardy is there but only to slice the Oranges at half time.

Obviously I’ll always defer to you on the level of play England 🏴 displayed. I expected more from a team of EPL players. The refs didn’t do them any favors, but I though England was sloppy with passing and shots on goal. Anyway, Poland 🇵🇱 knocked off today. Really enjoyed that match - another controversial play with the Senegal 🇸🇳. guy running down the field while being substituted and stealing a goal for all intents and purposes. Russia 🇷🇺 looks to be moving on... Nice luck with playing a team on one day less rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russia 🇷🇺 looks to be moving on... Nice luck with playing a team on one day less rest. England did not play that well but they got a win and need to be better. Columbia got screwed today big time. I mean, a red card, and a penalty shot given to Japan on the same play like 3 minutes into the game. I would have won $150 if Columbia had won. I got it planted in my ass. Strider, I know Guinness is Irish. The store was out of Boddington. I like Guinness. So back to Columbia, they had to then play the whole match with 10 men. Unreal. That division is up for grabs. And Group C with France, Denmark and Australia and Peru to me is the toughest one to call. I think Peru is going to give France fits with their speed. And I believe I escaped that game vs Peru with Denmark and now Denmark must play with 3 yellow cards. One mistake and they are going to be playing with 10 men. So I think I like the Aussies to win or tie this game. Argentina might have their hands full with Croatia too. Another tough group to call. As is that Columbia division. I still think Columbia can win it. Japan is lucky they got that call. I would expect Japan to get smoked the next two. Dont know why Morroco is getting any respect vs Portugal coming up. Portugal is minus 1 goal. To me they should be minus 2. England and Belgium should both go through but England must play far better if they expect to beat Belgium. I am wondering why Vardy is not in the lineup seriously. The guy can score. If Rooney could play 4 years ago Vardy can certainly help this team now. Spain should murder Iran tomorrow. We shall see. When the first round is over and the teams that move on are set, I will try and get the points added. I know one score already. Strider 0.

As the headline in Portugal's leading newspaper said: Spain 3 - Ronaldo 3 Yeah poor marking from Morocco apparently ( I was fixing my lunch at the time and missed it). The Marocs though are causing problems for Portugal. It's been a good game so far. Could be a draw? Expect more from England in the next 2 games Walt. Dickhead me booked my Sunday comp for a 1.30 tee time Doh!!. I was saved by a mate who reminded me that we play The Hat makers at 1 on Sunday. Tee changed to 08.12 am.
