Another banger.

No pens after 120 minutes @hunnybunny. But some fisticuffs from the Argies,  CHEATS THAT THEY ARE!

[Desperate Dan]

Put it on and Twiggy ran away.

Paul’s homoerotic phase.

[Desperate Dan]

Well I think we all ought to after the Falklands stunt.

One of my neighbours is Spanish. However, he is not interested in football. Apparently a great disappointment to his father. May explain why he emigrated. He did say that he was enjoying the cool weather though.

[Desperate Dan]

From a really brilliant “no skips” album. IMO.

Another runt today. Makes up for the loss of Poached Eggs 1-1 yesterday.  Need to put something appropriate on the juke box.

[Desperate Dan]

Hi there @karen68, good to hear from you. Shame Canada couldn’t keep playing at home, that might have helped them. But they did OK. Better than Italy.

[Desperate Dan]

FIFA fixed the draw well so that the top 4 seeded teams are the remaining ones. Can’t have upstart countries like Egypt or Norway messing things up. This involves all sorts of conspiracies of course. They do seem to have upset Erland Harland’s dad. Even the spider cam is in on the act apparently.

[Desperate Dan]

Trump turned the whole world into Belgians for the night. And now we all say good riddance, rather than bad luck, well played. A disaster.

[Desperate Dan]

This is making Blatter look like he’s on the side of the angels.

I have to say, I really hope Balogun gets sent off again. Just so we have a bigger sample to work with.

[Desperate Dan]

Trump cheats at golf. Now he cheats at football. Even a mild-mannered non football-loving friend of mine has suggested that Infantino should now castrate himself then chop off his own head. That’s the spirit!

Is that a thing?

[Desperate Dan]

Good grief, a Rio Challenge today for which I hold the trophy. A rare thing indeed. You are welcome to it if you leave my ABo/Classics one alone.

Miss July in the northern Carneddau. Evidence of heather burning in background.

[Desperate Dan]

Tuchel’s only got himself to blame, taking a load of snowflake defenders. This is going to end VERY badly.

But we’re not Scotland.

[Desperate Dan]

I’m inspired @atlas-zulay! Making gains on quite a lot of the levels you are ahead of me, it’s just that you probably haven’t noticed because I didn’t overtake you. But I do have them as a targeted list. Also trying very hard to get into the lead on Flock Favourites. Very tough proposition, creeping steadily upwards but (same old story) I think it requires one or two old versions.

[Desperate Dan]

Nothing has given me more pleasure than seeing Uruguay going home because if there is one footballer I dislike more than Ronaldo it is that most hungry of footballers, Luis Suarez. He would really enjoy the crispy pigs’ ears in the BP.

[Desperate Dan]

If you score a goal in the last minute, celebrate by taking your shirt off, get booked but then have the goal disallowed,  shouldn’t the booking be rescinded?

No idea why I am asking that question in this forum.

[Desperate Dan]

Shooting craps with OB in the Lurkers Lounge. There’s a big screen in there now. What are things coming to?

[Desperate Dan]

That was a cast-iron penalty that England should have conceded against Ghana. And a red card. If only there was some kind of back-up system that could check these kind of things.

[Desperate Dan]

I hate Ronaldo with a vengeance. But as he is dragging Portugal down with his selfishness (way way past his sell by date and they are scared to drop him) I hope he continues playing.

[Desperate Dan]

There is a universal playbook for simulation. Open mouth, shocked look and arms flung crazily forward. Then obligatory writhing. Often followed by a miraculous recovery. Real injuries NEVER look like that.

[Desperate Dan]

OK “Sling God” @briann. Your sneaky progress up Jurassic Pork has been noted by more than one player.

[Desperate Dan]

Nothing personal @jrsquonk. You just happened to be at the top of the list. You may have lost BI but I think you can sleep easy over Jurassic Pork. That is an incredible record.

[Desperate Dan]

Dispatched Squonk now. BI is mine all mine (cackles despotically while stroking Twiggy). Need to have a look at Flock Favourites next. Anything to take my mind of losing all those Classics trophies.
