"if you appeal to the referee, nine times out of ten you're gonna get the decision"

i've got eurosport
game has settled into its fated pattern: japanese tippy-tappy reaches edge of box, english long ball through to keeper
oh god is the bbc co-commentator the one who was fellating the usa for 93 minutes yesterday

Bardsley flaps awkward freekick over the bar, goalkick given. do the kids still say 'standard'

it was offside so the shit officiating balanced out

whoever the Eurosport co-commentator is she sounds like a female Glenn Hoddle. tick.jpg

rafferty is so shit though, 80% her fault
eurosport main commentator bleatingly comparing that to the hand of god
fucking gonna watch the american stream
― rahrah avis (imago), Wednesday, 1 July 2015 23:34 (eight years ago) link
you just feel the japanese have better ball control.
perhaps there are too many foreign players in the english women's league.
don't blame the manager, blame the players.
we coach our kids to win games at under 9s - this doesn't happen in tokyo.
it's time we invested in our youth women's game.

dece penalty, Eurosport reckon it was soft and/or a dive?
Japan hammered it into England's box straight from the kickoff, not sure if that was petulance or what
― there was a lot of beer and people doing sit ups, (laughs) (DJ Mencap), Wednesday, 1 July 2015 23:43 (eight years ago) link
xp no "root and branch change", no credibility
― there was a lot of beer and people doing sit ups, (laughs) (DJ Mencap), Wednesday, 1 July 2015 23:44 (eight years ago) link
it was the most hilarious no-contact dive an england player has ever perpetuated
― rahrah avis (imago), Wednesday, 1 July 2015 23:44 (eight years ago) link
all 4 teams in the semis have been awarded a penalty
the only one that was a penalty was missed
― rahrah avis (imago), Wednesday, 1 July 2015 23:45 (eight years ago) link
yr a bunch of miserable cunts. i love sue smith and her crazy hairstyles.
― tayto fan (Michael B), Wednesday, 1 July 2015 23:48 (eight years ago) link
hmm, there was contact for the england pen, in fact, but it was so, so soft
― rahrah avis (imago), Wednesday, 1 July 2015 23:51 (eight years ago) link
the england penalty is more embarrassing than our government

"i felt japan were a bit cocky and disrespectful to england before the game" ... "i haven't actually watched japan this world cup"
i turned it off cos the commentary was so bad. great to see bbc's diversity, hiring the shittest commentators around regardless of gender.
― bureau belfast model (LocalGarda), Thursday, 2 July 2015 00:07 (eight years ago) link
it would be like getting andros townsend to commentate an england men's world cup game

thought that header from Scott was in
Japan amusingly incapable of playing a ball along the ground
― there was a lot of beer and people doing sit ups, (laughs) (DJ Mencap), Thursday, 2 July 2015 00:22 (eight years ago) link
Japan have waited until the last 20 minutes to bring on their best player; will England respond with Kirby
― rahrah avis (imago), Thursday, 2 July 2015 00:29 (eight years ago) link
the long cross button on my old xbox controller was broken and I used to play Fifa basically the way Japan plays

;)
another 30 minutes would have been pretty rough viewing, don't think m/any England players had anything left in the tank
sorry to quack on about the commentary but yer pair on Eurosport's efforts at staying on-message stretched credulity. "it's just a total freak goal" nah it's unlucky by any metric but that doesn't preclude it being a fuckup
