Wonderful match. Correct result!

(No, it wasn’t handball! I wouldn’t have wanted to be in the German changing room after the match.)
In contrast, Boris was nowhere to be seen. And no reception at Number 10. Says buckets.. toxic

Complete disgrace. Where were the red cards? There should have been just maybe five players left by the end.

I’m glad that’s over. It’s too stressful. What must it be like if you actually care who wins??

[color=RGBA(var(--primary), 1)]ONE-ARMED WONDER [/color]

Shocking story of one-armed title-winning footballer who had limb amputated at 14 and was shot dead aged 38
https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/21812649 ... shot-dead/

JH lived a few doors up from us in the early 60s; all the kids in the street played soccer with their left arm tucked under their shirt.
