And Declan..thanks for
putting us onto this and
setting this up...it made
this WC a lot of fun. I
agree with Graham.

I thought some of the
"Oh My God, I've
been shot" posing
made rugby look so far
the superior game that it
was laughable.
As someone who genuinely
enjoyed aspects of this
WC and regularly watches
the Prem (where poseurs
appear limited), I
actually think the semis
and the Final hurt
football as far as truly
winning hearts and minds
in the US. "Cynical
and posturing" are
two words that come to
mind.

I won't say France lost
because of Zidane's
idiocy (a self-inflicted
sad end to a great and
illustrious career) but
they could have used his
decisiveness in the
penalty kicks. There was
just that one penalty
kick difference in the
end. Let's do this again
in 4 years (or maybe the
Euro's in 08)

Right now the race is on
between 2 people Brendan
OC and Rob Van
IN........
If France loses then
Brendan wins bragging
rights otherwise Brendan
wins.....
Bragging rights is all I
offered as 1st prize..cos
thats all I have.....Stig

beig last. Hard luck Stig

, I thought he was well

yesterday but alas alak
it was not to be. Lot of
sore heads in Dortmund
last night....

Nobody forecast Italy to
win. After watching that
Italy win with two very
good goals, we all look
like fools! Italy have to
be favored now.

So to all you fuckers who
thought Portugal would
lose - I have one thing
to say...
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAHHHHHH!" -
woohoo! Just got back
from Germany - went to
the Germany v Argentina
game - was fantastic -
72000 fans - about 5% of
them from Argentina - who
really deserved to win.
Now this next phase
should be interesting -
battle of the midfield in
Portugal v France - the
other should be a no
contest for Germany.
Making my last second
push for the win in this
game - GO PORTUGAL!!

If Brazil beats France
(likely) & England
beat Portugal (more than
likely with all the
Portuguese yellow cards)
& Germany beats Italy
(could go either way),
I'll have 3 teams in the
semi's! I've forcasted a
Brazil-Germany final. I
think I'm in this thing
till the end.

Qtr finals should be very
interesting O'Connell is
in trouble as he has only
2 chances at5 scoring
points whilst de Pina
Healy and me could really
shake it up As Mulcahy
and Pocket D have kept
their choices secret
there are 6 in
contention... last place
should be interesting as
all should get some
points in the Qtrs,.....
I hate to say it but
come on England (for
Qtr's only)

Let's hope so - will be
tough without Deco - and
thanks to that asswipe of
a referee in the Holland
game, half the bloody
squad already have
yellows, so the chances
of playing ANY of the
games going forward with
a full squad are next to
nil :( - nevertheless I
have faith - this is the
year the Golden
Generation make it all
happen! Forca PORTUGAL!!!

Stage 1 will soon be over
Fry makes a spectacular
recovery to get some
points on the table, (and
currently ties with
me)OConnell is a nip
ahead of Mulcahy (who is
currently in Morocco),
Greg in Fiji remains
isolated in the teens.
Brian Dosi has faltered.

When the board assigns
the bonus points for
qualifying then we will
seperate the men from the
