  1. got to love these "professionals" in the commentary boxes In the Argentina game neither of them had a clue how the positions would be worked out after they were level on goal difference and goals scored - presumably someone eventually passed them a piece of paper - then they only thought it went on bookings and didn't have a clue about red cards and how they were awarded In the Mexico game when Saudi made it 2-1 they said it was "all over now" when in fact if Mexico had won 3-1 they would have been above Poland on goals scored
  2. Only just found out about Wilko - RIP Absolutely classic performance RIP Lee Brilleaux seems appropriate too
  3. Ashley Williams’ comment on the yellow/red card assault while it’s on the screen in slow motion and the keepers’ foot is in the guys face and then he knocks him into the middle of next week “he did catch him” How much are the BBC, sorry I mean we, paying for his expert analysis?
  4. They lost to Cameroon in the first game in 1990 but still got to the final
  5. If Iran are the 20th best ranked team in the world Wednesday must be at worst 15th
  6. There's a couple of unstoppable women in that New Zealand team There was a slender England lassl trying to tackle one of those two and she was literally thrown up into the air and landed heavily from a great height but she just got up and carried on A footballer would have been rolling about on the floor for hours holding his knee with one hand and banging on the floor with his other hand
  7. Just watched the second semi-final and both semi finals have been sensational Some saying Friday nights was probably the best Rugby League game ever And today's finish was incredible
  8. cheers Skamp I wonder if they class that as a success
  9. Wasn't Terry Payne number 7 and therefore a right winger in those days
  10. A pic my dad took 11/2/67 Wednesday 4 Southampton 1 - Fantham 3, McCalliog - 26,159 25/2/67 United 2 Southampton 0
  11. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/63540624
  12. The first 1st Round Wednesday match I went to and our first since 1928 was home to Macclesfield Town 22nd November 1975 3-1 Prendergast, Knighton, Proudlove 12,940 A fantasic turnout considering our previous 2 home league games had 8,235 and 10,880
  13. The ground they kept showing the inside of to show how bad things were in the 80s is actually Millmoor as it it now They still play Sunday league games there apparently
  14. Sounds like it “Born in Neumünster, Germany, Smith moved to Britain with his family when he was a child. They anglicised their surname from Schmidt to Smith at this time”
  15. You can’t see the clock on top of the South from out seats in the North now
  16. I paid £35 for a seat opposite the 25 yard line and this was for a known totally one sided game so for the first half I hardly saw the ball at my end it was easy to move into more expensive areas if you wanted to there was 4,400 there and i have no idea if that was more or less than expected if they had done a 3 match ticket for £50 say I would have gone to them all
  17. I would go again next Monday but I think the prices are a bit steep and no concession for the over 60s/65s I would have thought they would have made it more reasonable to attract non Rugby League fans especially in the group stages - could have done a 3 game ticket at Donny
