Removed Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 oooooooooo shurrrrrrrrrrrup ok ok it might not have been a penalty but so wasn't the red card ! no way that tackle would have warrantied a red card, all commentators said that too we dominated in the first half and should have scored then, suffered in 10 men but still defended very well.... I guess I'll see you english boys in the final if you get there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick_MSM Posted June 27, 2006 Author Share Posted June 27, 2006 Bit risky buying tickets just to watch England in the final isn't it Val? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Removed Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 but are you going past Brasil in the semis? i reckon we have more chanches to go past germany or argentina than you go past brasil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick_MSM Posted June 27, 2006 Author Share Posted June 27, 2006 So far, albeit 2-0 up, Brazil are allover the place in defence. Ghana can count themselves VERY unlucky to be losing this (2nd brazil goal was offside). Wouldn't be overly worried IF England could put in a performance against them..

Gus Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Val, quick question that popped into my tiny brain watching the Eyeties the other night....... Why do you play in blue ( both football and rugby ) ? Most teams play in the predominat colour of their national flag, but your's is red white and green I'm sure there's a logical explanation............

Removed Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 I'm sure I used to know the answer to this...... can't remember now though! I'll get back to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick_MSM Posted June 27, 2006 Author Share Posted June 27, 2006 Pretty sure it's because Blue is the colour of Savoia which was once the ruling house of Italy. I *think* their national flag had the Savoia coat of arms and was blue?? until the Italian republic came into force and the 3 coloured flag was created? Is that right Val?
