My point is, in a tournament like this, i would love to see the best players playing the best football. Italy have deservedly gone out, though I do feel that they were a bit unfortunate, however it would have been nice had they played the way that they can and gone through, I would have liked this more than seeing a good Sweden or Danish side.

If you are claiming that my knowledge of the game of football are on the whole ignorant simply because I enjoy watching the "big" teams play against each other than I think you are making a rather sweeping statement. I'm sorry that the prospect of playing Sweden doesn't do the same things for me as possibly playing Italy or Spain.

That's a bit out of order isn't it? Touching on a sensitive subject

I do agree with Lofty...comedy is not your friend

Another intelligent and lengthy post from Eddie Booya

...that was just awful

Not all daft posts then !! "Booya"...it was too tempting

Shut up chicken. Another intelligent and lengthy post by T4E Booya. Oh I am so glad you have decided to participate in this. To quote lofty "stop acting like a little kid"

Seems like he has a bit of a fan club

By the looks of the poll Lofty...no one is your friend

Shut up chicken. Another intelligent and lengthy post by T4E

Now that Lofty's not ###### off this isn't nearly so funny...I think some punishment should be thrown at him just to spice things up

I think the big brotheresque idea is a good one...we could make it a weekly thing

By the looks of things he doesn't have any...couple devoted followers though...bit like Jesus

You're trying to chat him up again now aren't you Lofty

youll pick it up as you go along...........same as ste b does on clayton street Best chippy in 'Arrod.. Never heard it called that before...

Now Lofty...I've been here from the start but you've yet to mention me!

This is starting to sound a bit like the American Constitution. Sidenote: You did it to me again Ste when you deleted the poll...and I was just thinking that you had listened to my suggestion and that Lofty's campaign was really starting to have an affect and was improving the standing of the common board member.

...they do actually run the site

You could always just lend them some of the extra glue from your work...could make things a bit more interesting later on

Now now...isn't some of this a bit against the rules mods?

Abbey...I'm rather confused now...

He must be typing something long...it's been a while since he's said anything. Edit: I take that back, and good on you Lofty for fighting the common man's war

I can understand why he can catch your eye. From what you've just said he sounds like he must have a nice body, and he also knows men in high places, good choice.

Everybody who knows me is well aware i've grown too much matey Are you hitting on him now?
