      No sir, Spain only this WC after the Azzuris nuked our Ozzie dreams the last time round...

      Chelsea for far, far longer since the Ruud Gullit (long may he be remembered)-era...

        Hi Kyo, view from Youtube that the pictures were faked. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euoLWoXS-J8

        I have already placed my bet for Spain to win based on your Mr. Octopus link. So how now if Germany wins? Money down the drain.

        • Yes, it was a fake! I have already placed my money down buying the Spanish jersey, so either way I don't care

          Anyway, the Octopus will pick the real deal tonight..! Fingers crossed...

            Paul just picked Espana. He has decided to save us.

            • Good win last night.

              I've been a Holland supporter since Munich 1974. Johan Cruyff & Co.

              Hope it's 3rd time lucky for them.

              The team has a tendency to self destruct though..

                    Yes, I got an SMS from someone celebrating at 4.30 am in the morning. Thanks for the morning call.

                    Must have made a bundle from the betting system. Need to bring us out for a mini-LD as part of the celebrations (or punishment).

                        I could say something here fella, but I won't as you're a good mate

                        Last nights match was the most enjoyable so far, in what has been the worst World Cup I can remember.

                        I did say I would go to the Dam if they got to the final cos those Dutch know how to turn out and enjoy themselves on the big occassion, as witnessed numerous times on 30 April for the Queens birthday celebration, my favourite day in Europe each year.

                        Alas work seems like it will get in the way again.

                          • A mediocre match last night for me, and not because of the result. Not the best of World Cups so far, but still some intense games and rapid fluctuating of sentiments - which is what the whole thing is all about, right?

                            The big disappointment was the referees in the first two rounds. Some of these England or Mexican (for example) players may make a very good living out of football during normal league seasons, but as national teams they have been preparing for months. A lot of effort and hopes have gone into these teams' journeys so far; nobody has the right to take away their fair chances in the game, simply because they cannot or refuse to see the ball clearly crossing the post line.

                            These are mistakes that will remain in history forever and will be remembered not just by the supporters of a single club, but by the people of a whole nation. I particularly don't like Ashley Cole or John Tery (though I like other English players a lot) but they are part of a team that deserved a fair chance against their rivals, whoever they were during that game. And they didn't get it. They did not play that great either on that day anyway, but that means not much. A fair chance is a fair chance, and it must be provided to every single team no matter what.

                            Nothing in this world can give so much excitement to millions of people round the glolobe, as sports and true competition can under a fair basis. True 'fair play' is therefore important. FIFA and co. better make it practice soon, otherwise they should revert and simply award golden trophies to gifted footballers (albeit clowns) who occasionally prefer to use their hands for scoring.

                              That is one smart octopus!

                              I wonder if it also does feng shui?

                                Read that the PM of Spain vowed to protect the octopus and provide it with asylum. Not sure Spain will feel the same if the octopus chose Holland and our Iberian friends lost in the finals? At least AMS is closer than sunny Spain.

                                kyo+, you have been very quiet about LD 7.5 after it was suggested you need to celebrate (or make amends) for the "Viva Espana" announcements (on your expense of course).

                                Sorry to push you on these but I think a couple of SQTalkers are dying from lack of liquid diet.
