We can talk about what might have happened all day long, but it doesn’t alter the fact, England were rubbish and didn’t deserve to take it to penalties let alone win. Read the rest of this entry »
FIFA President Blatter is an arrogant, meglo-maniac. The penny hasn’t dropped that the fans run the game, not him, not FIFA, the football world couldn’t care less about him and his corrupt mates. Who is he to tell us there is nothing wrong with the Jabulani, when the players are clearly saying there is? Read the rest of this entry »
