LOL, they've won, so Wales are British now.

Unbefuckinglievable!
Gutted Ramsay is out but what the fuck. Semi fucking finals here we come.
― groovypanda, Friday, 1 July 2016 20:51 (eight years ago) link
ref robbed 'em haha
― imago, Friday, 1 July 2016 20:52 (eight years ago) link
Yeah, Ramsay will be sorely missed, thats a blemish, but this is wonderful.

Portugal totally beatable as well, this is thrilling

Oh God yes.

Wilmots will have to be sacked after this, shocking tactics and substitutions, hitting aimless high balls for over 30 mins with that talent

Ehr Portugal way more difficult to beat for Wales than Belgium tbh. But of course it can be done.
― Le Bateau Ivre, Friday, 1 July 2016 20:57 (eight years ago) link
Yeah this is exit Wilmots

Don't think ref fucked them too much. Lukaku one was a foul but he can't complain after that header early in 2nd half. Nainggolan was a dive
― Blandford Forum, Friday, 1 July 2016 20:59 (eight years ago) link
Both cards for Ramsey and Davies came after sloppy Welsh passes. Must be pretty devastating for them to miss out on the semi.
Assume it's going to be billed as Bale v Ronaldo.
― groovypanda, Friday, 1 July 2016 21:00 (eight years ago) link
Lukaku was a foul but davies didnt rly step egregiously into his path so you could see it not being given
Nainggolan was a lazy dive rly
― poor fiddy-less albion (darraghmac), Friday, 1 July 2016 21:03 (eight years ago) link
Chelsea's new 33m man made some great angry faces after he came on, looking forward to those next season

Prerequisite for a Prem player.

That robson-kanu goal is got to be goal of the tournament. It was sublime. He was so calm with the cryuff turn to take out three players.
― plums (a hoy hoy), Friday, 1 July 2016 21:14 (eight years ago) link
Courtois saying he's done with Wilmots basically.

For me the control during Hal's goal is the single greatest bit of control (maybe vs Ronaldo backheel vs Croatia) in the entire tournament therefore your arguments are invalid.

Can we acknowledge the tekkers in that fucking vokes header btw
― poor fiddy-less albion (darraghmac), Friday, 1 July 2016 23:44 (eight years ago) link
(ps I am drunkded)
And yes, Votes header great.

just woke up and noticed I had started to type a post but had only written a single letter t
wonder what I was going to say
"two thousand and sixteen is a fucken strange ass time to live in Wales" perhaps
― Pat Umunna Glass (DJ Mencap), Saturday, 2 July 2016 06:56 (eight years ago) link
Yeah the quality of both goals is some serious cometh the hour shit. The run and header and the cross, brilliant.
― Bein' Sean Bean (LocalGarda), Saturday, 2 July 2016 07:48 (eight years ago) link
he will probably never head a ball that well again in his life whatever the occasion
― Pat Umunna Glass (DJ Mencap), Saturday, 2 July 2016 09:02 (eight years ago) link
I've watched that second Wales goal at least 20 times and still don't understand how he suddenly became completely open
― mookieproof, Saturday, 2 July 2016 09:34 (eight years ago) link
How does this happen? You get a collection of average to slightly-above-average Premiership players, one very good Premiership player and one world class superstar (who doesn't end up doing much), a manager who has done very little of note in his career, and something like that happens. The last two goals were so great, just this sense of everything just clicking into place at exactly the right time. Robson-Kanu is a Championship free agent ffs.
― Matt DC, Saturday, 2 July 2016 10:34 (eight years ago) link
amazing what you can do with players who can take tactical instruction and execute it as a collective. story of half the tournament.
― taking straight talking honest politics a little too literally (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 2 July 2016 10:38 (eight years ago) link
tbf to the English lads there's a not a lot of evidence of them receiving coherent tactical instruction
― taking straight talking honest politics a little too literally (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 2 July 2016 10:39 (eight years ago) link
No amount of tactical instruction gives you goals like that HRK one.
― Matt DC, Saturday, 2 July 2016 10:49 (eight years ago) link
I told him to do it
― Number None, Saturday, 2 July 2016 10:51 (eight years ago) link
no but we're talking about why teams can punch above their nominal weight across a bunch of matches, not individual moments within a game
― taking straight talking honest politics a little too literally (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 2 July 2016 10:53 (eight years ago) link
maybe trusting the system and your team-mates gives you confidence to do things like that, defending was still a bit shit tbh
― taking straight talking honest politics a little too literally (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 2 July 2016 10:55 (eight years ago) link
u simply cannot underestimate the effect of the terrifying brain-eating mould identified by profs shearer & giggs as washbag culture
― r|t|c, Saturday, 2 July 2016 10:58 (eight years ago) link
tbf, HRK has gone for that move quite a bit in this tournament. It's just usually not in the penalty area
― Number None, Saturday, 2 July 2016 10:59 (eight years ago) link
xp we mustn't overlook the pioneering work of Dr Danny Baker in this field

Is Robson-Kanu still unattached? pretty choice free transfer there for some club.
― calzino, Saturday, 2 July 2016 11:05 (eight years ago) link
is there a passable HRK/HRC confusion display name up for grabs no probably not

lad i know who's a Hull fan already doing that hilariously imperious "should we sign Robson Kanu?" thing on Facebook

always think the tone of those conversations is risible enough when it comes from lol big club fans but in the Champo it takes it to another level
