As much as I hate to agree with FIFA, I think they are right here. After all if you allow this for one (or three actually) then who knows what some countries will be wanting to put on their shirts.....

Great [8|]

When I saw this I assumed Arsenal had lost last night - they were 2-0 down. So, having seen this, and with great expectation I went to the BBC website and..... they won [:(]

As a matter of fact, I like Wenger / Arsenal. Simply because they propose attacking football and the young talents thing (I don't know if they changed lately). It's a philosophical issue [:D] I will always appreciate everyone offering attacking football.

Well to paraphrase Sir WSC

If Arsenal were playing the Devil's XI, I'd be rooting for Bealzebub

Ain't 11 matches enough for one season? Do we really need all 38 to be played?

Football is such a cruel game. Scotland did not deserve to be on the end of a 3-0 scoreline. England were sloppy (especially Stones), lacking in ideas (even more than usual) but managed to put away three of the few chances we had.

What never ceases to amaze me it how England always manage to make poor teams seem much better than they are. Some of Scotland's passing and attacking play in the first 15 minutes of the 2nd half (and for part of the first) was excellent and only the final ball/shot let them down and came to England's rescue.

England are truly awful.

Another loss for Norway, yet the coach replied that this is not the time to talk about leadership changes... [8|]

I really, really, dislike the current interpretation of the offside rule. It is to complicated and ambiguous. [:(]

I guess this is a classic, but somehow I missed it. Soccer vs Football rant by John Cleese [:D]

If anything, a bit harsh. If I well understood, he is basically calling the American football players morons.
