Even more amusing: now getting sidebar ads for "Visit Saudi" with Messi posing with binoculars up a mountain in Al Soudah, leaning against some modern building in a tuxedo, wearing a flower crown in Rijal Almaa, etc. (Probably shot on location but so hyperreal it just looks like Photoshop).

re the armbands. if they do it in the last game of the group stage won't the tickets that follow go away for the knockout stage? does that also apply to red cards?

i think the yellows aren't wiped until the quarter finals. and coyly gaming the system would be just more insult imo

Doesn't look like the Argies will have a problem getting out of the group.

Haven't seen any of this game but Poland are the same every World Cup, lumbering, slow as molasses and out at the group stages.

Fuck sake, Jason Cummings is in the Australian squad and he's actually been capped by Scotland. Still, who are you more likely to play in a World Cup with?

my faith in the Sockeroos holding on for 77 minutes is not very high

xp
Ndlovu was only with us for a freescoring short loan period, we tried to extend it but Warnock said he wasn't available - then loaned him to Brum and we got relegated.
― calzino, Tuesday, 22 November 2022 19:29 (three years ago)
or it might have been Trevor Francis who said he wasn't available then loaned him to Warnock .. lol easy to get 2 cunts mixed up

and we're back to normalcy

Funny reading the start of match comments after watching France hammer these for the last 20 minutes

yeah Australia scoring early seems to have knocked over a wasp's nest, they shoulda just parked the bus and tried to poke one through at 45'

no they're actually playing a stoppage half
― Fash Gordon (Neanderthal), Tuesday, 22 November 2022 20:39 (three years ago)
I don't believe England did start the tournament as one of the favourites but Jonathan Pearce hadn't mentioned them in a couple of minutes so what the hell.

sorry, dropped off there for a bit, are Australia still winning?

lmao I would have expected 6-0 before this, easily the worst Australian squad since getting out of Oceania
