            The sound of all those fans tooting their horns in the stadium... trying to watch the football on tv it sounds like a giant swarm of wasps in the background.
My half-time thoughts. Uruguay are playing a primitive game compared to France's sophisticated game, which is a bit like how Arsenal play. I had higher hopes for Uruguay but their game is just one of trying to hit on the break with hopeful balls. France really are passing better are controlling midfield, but cmon Uruguay.0 -

France just don't seem fully together to me (and I'm not just saying that because I've got Malouda in my team). Thought the first game was better.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

Sadly it wasn't interesting lir. Its a sorry old state of affairs when the man of the match award has to go to the ref.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?

What a pedant! He still had a better day than Uruguay and their was it three or four strikers who couldn't hit a barn door and a French team that looked like they wanted to sit on the bench and watch the grass grow.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?

            ooooo...are we talking football in here?

The first game was exactly what the world cup should be, played with spirit and gusto. France v Uruguay was so boring.
How are people planning on watching while at work? I'm contemplating taking a lot of time off

It was a bit painful on the ears after a while Lir. One of the commentators, Lawernson/Lawro(?) picked up on it in the middle of the second half, saying it was like a swarm of bees; constant. It wasn't horns either but a horn like instrument with a special South African name.
It was also a frustrating match compared to the play and excitement in the opening match.inspector_monkfish wrote: »
