France / Ireland

[chirpychirpy]

The Irish will no doubt be laughing that France were denied a penalty in their first match and were well beaten by Mexico in their second. But, if I was Irish, I'd just be fed up that France have played so badly and with so little effort because the Irish always try their hearts out for every second of every match they play. What do you think, especially if you're Irish?

[ummmm]

I think France tried hard. Mexico were the better team though. The commentator said at the beginning of the match how impressive Mexico's passing skills were.

There's a few happy Irish today.....I might even have a drink :-)

A glass of French wine, ummmm?
It was the hand of god denied us a place in SA. We must be stoical and accept his will.
:-(

[ummmm]

No French wine :-)

The problem with Henry was his silence about it until the FA said that the match wouldn't be replayed. Then he piped up saying it should knowing the decision was final.....Finance Specialist!!

Cascarino was born in England but qualified to play for Ireland through his Irish grandfather. But in his autobiography he admitted that his mother told him she had been adopted and was therefore not a blood relative to his grandfather. As he put it in his book "I was a fraud. A fake Irishman."

--as long as youse never cheated ummm
:-)

[ummmm]

His Grandfather would still be his Grandfather in the eyes of the law....

Personally....I've never cheated...it's them damn sportsmen that are the problem :-)

[ummmm]

France lacked any fight, a team of individuals who can't play as a team

Still, when they get knocked out next week the players will have some spare time for some more forbidden lolita action!
