Just thought I'd drop in to point out that Portugal are going OUT of the European Cup tomorrow (Thursday 24th). Sorry Baldy, but its true.
That will be all.

hey spacewoman.
as I'm typing this post the players are resting to play overtime. You are so lucky!!! england isn t playing JACK SHIT. we diserve to go through!!! We're so much better than you. You were lucky because of that bonus given by our defense, otherwise we would have already been through to semis (this reminds me of a certain CWT 2004 quarter final game)...

Well, the refereeing was poor throughout the match... and the goal shouldn't have been disallowed, the keeper jumped in to Terry, not the other way around. The linesman ad a better view of the game and he gave teh goal, ref was nowhere near and disallowed it. Note that the ref was Swiss and England beat Switzerland in the group stages. Hmmmm....

Boy what a game really! I would like to point out several things here: 1 - Penguin said: Well, I belive I was talking with one CWT'er about football and that CWT'er told me: Everyone only talked about Rooney, well he's only 1 man not a whole team. And sometimes... Well... Shit happens! 2 - Penguin, UrbanSpaceman and Voodoo complained about a suposed roberry. Well the goalie can't be touched in the small area. it is a fact that the player who fouled our goalie was not the player who headed but he made the foul. According to your point of view, then players could break each other's legs as long as the oponnent wasn't involved in the direct play. In my opinion there wasn't any robbery at all, it's just your frustration talking. 3 - It would be extremely unfair, as I said before, that England would go through to semis. There was only 1 team playing decent attacking football. Your first goal was a bonus by Costinha and your second was from a corner kick. Portugal played better and end of story! We diserved it! 4 - Spaceman I believe you were from Wales, not England, right?

It's because even though I'm English I consider my "Britishness" to come before my "Englishness". I'm also 3/4 English and 1/4 Scottish, so it incorporates that too [NB: that doesn't count as miscegenation because the two racial groups are so similar, so I'm not mixed-race] Don't be too disappointed, France, for you might still reach a different semi-final soon

Crespo: I was born in England and my father is English, but my mother is Welsh and I've lived in Wales for most of my life, which is why I generally claim Welsh nationality, as I identify with this country more. However, I support England if Wales aren't playing (which most Welsh people despise: the majority of Welshmen will actually cheer the French if they're playing against England). I have a tendency to conveniently switch nationality at will, for example, when england were doing well in this tournament, I was English, but as soon as they were knocked out, I became Welsh... that way I never lose!
Also, I still think the goal should not have been disallowed. I agree that the goalkeeper cannot be touched inside the penalty area, however, Ricardo clearly jumped into the English attacker, not the other way around, and its not a foul if the goalkeeper jumps into you: the attacker is not expected to move out of the way for them. John Terry was jumping for a header when the goalkeeper jumped in to him, which is perfectly legitimate, and not a foul. Also, even if it HAD been a foul, the ref never should have allowed the free kick to be taken so quickly, whilst the English players were still celebrating the goal they thought they'd scored.
Anyway, it doesn't matter now, 'tis all in the past... why the hell get excited about a silly game like football when there's worms to play!
