Crying is for when you're knocked out, not after a group defeat. Still can't believe what an overreaction there was after they lost to Croatia. I liked that one of their players went round dragging his teammates up and bollocking them for it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Blow-in 203 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 What is with all the hatred of Argentina? Is it really down to Maradona's hand of God? If it is its pretty pathetic. Ireland were eliminated from a World Cup by a handball by Henry for France, I was upset with the player for a while, but to hate an entire nation for 30 years. I honestly don't know what to say. I also at no stage felt that it diminished his quality as a player. Also, Maradona was caught using cocaine, a recreation drug so "drug cheat" is a load of @#/? and smacks of sore loser syndrome. The number of comments on here about Argentina and Germany over the last two weeks have done this site no credit, we should be bigger then this. A laugh at one of your big rivals losing is fine but there have been some really nasty stuff. Being Irish I like to see my team beat England (whats seldom is wonderful), but I would not sit and listen quietly to one of my friends talking about "disgusting English" I would tell them to grow up.

I thought it was commonly agreed he had used a cocktail of stuff to lose two stone before the world cup but its a fair point. Wish I knew what he used as I could do with losing a bit myself.

To a degree but the concept of 'the auld enemy' suits England for some reason. And in fairness, if you do talk to Irish about the troubles it can get very heated very quickly.

perthblue02 4994 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Hopefully that spurs Nigeria on to grab a winner , if it happens will be disappointed if there is not a caption under a photo of the penalty that reads " Moses parting the Messsi" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Husky 1961 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Is anyone watching the Iceland game? Croatia are winning, so for Argentina nothing has really changed with that Nigeria goal, as they needed a goal at 1-0, now they just need a goal at 1-1. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mattyblue 14799 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Maradona was on ephedrine. A banned stimulant that helps weight loss. So, not ‘recreational’ drugs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ewood Ace 4651 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Di Maria has not been the same player ever since he left Real Madrid. A shame really as he was superb in the 2014 Champions League final. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
