When I was a kid back in the 70's, one of the channels (here in the U.S.) would show German soccer matches on Sunday mornings. I don't remember the announcer's name but he was British. He would always say things like "Oh, what a valiant effort by the Stuttgart team." Everything was a "valiant effort."

ETA: And it seemed like there were only a few teams in the league: Hamburg, Stuttgart, and Monchengladbach were the cities I remember hearing all the time.

Hey my club has only had one 0-0 score this season and that was only after they'd won the title. Oh and before anyone who know's what they are on about gives me lip. Three points;

A) I was nearly called George.

B) I cried when Kevin Moran was sent off in 85.

C) I endured the Atkinson years.

Also on the subject, Americans are wusses who wear 20 pounds of padding to play rugby. And waha! Congratulations you managed to make cricket less complicated and more boring when you created baseball.

If Murray Walker commentated on the FA cup final it would result in the ball exploding, three players suffering broken legs and wembley stadium collapsing at free-fall speed into it's own footprint.

Murray Walker : ".....he's gauranteed to win this grand prix now, nothing can stop him he's so far....HE'S CRASHED! HE'S CRASHED! ON THE LAST LAP!"

ETA: You just have to remember when Walker decided to change the way he pronounced 'ayrton senna' and then the poor sod crashed and died

Nothing to Micheal O Heiher, who commented on Gaelic football and Hurling, who once coined an euphemism for a punch up between players as

""And it looks like there’s a bit of a schemozzle in the parallelogram"

He would also burst into spontateous Gaeilge when he got too excited. Frankly if you were too close to the radio spittles of spit would hit you in the face

My favorite Walker moment is: "This car is absolutely unique—except for the one following it, which is identical". :D

Do you think they realize "hate ****" = rape?

They said much the same thing about Abby when she put out her video.

For that matter, anyone female who crosses their CT fantasies becomes so much grist for the rape fantasy mills.

Truly sad, and somewhat scarey, ****.
I very much doubt that Rosie would approve of their attitude toward her co-host, regardless of how she might disagree with her. Avery might want to consider that.

Check the FA rules, you can if its a Chelski goalie.

Actually I was outraged because I only saw the incident once, on the six o'clock news, in hindsight, no, it wasn't a goal.

Rule8ing rule8s.

If it was a foul then why did the ref not blow for a foul??
As we know he didn't so as the ball clearly crossed the line it should have been a goal.
 
Unless he didn't see it had crossed the line, in which case play continues...
Or he did ... and ignored it, diplomatically.
All is politics :)

Head in hands, speaking slowly and calmly.

Jack please tell me you're not turning the sodding FA cup final into a conspiracy.

Why? are you going to debunk the ball crossing the line?
personally I couldn't care less who won the trophy I'm a fan of neither.
The ball crossed the line "goal" simple.....even for you.
 
You know, it occurs to me that if we apply Jack's principles, Maradona's "hand of God" was a conspiracy betwixt the football authorities, the referee, and the Argentinian team to defraud England out of the Cup. Doubtless orchestrated by the SFA, for our hatred of England is well know and document! Look at the amount of Scots in positions of power!! They could easily hamper/fiddle/direct the inquiry!!!
 
I dunnae think it was a goal, Cech had come to a complete stop with the ball in his hands and only crossed the line after Giggs bumped him o'er it. I'm a ManYoo fan an' all.
 
The ball crossed the line.
the ref didn't blow for an infringment
so the goal should have been given.
No conspiracy, just a linesman with bad eyesight.
Some people just can't see whats is clear to others.

Who cares about this? Seriously. What does this have to do with a damn thing? It's a stupid game, and you're arguing like it matters. Grow up!
 
How little you understand to importance of football (aka soccer) to some in the UK.


I'm a rugby man, myself.
