    For epic advertising, behind the scenes corruption, frequent cheating and amateur dramatics from multi-millionaires.

    Sorry, I grew up loving football and have come to despise it.

    Following on from Putins recent last two great victories ( Winner of the FIFA 2018 World Cup and Brexit 2019), I can report that Germany thrashed The Russian Federation in the FIFA World Cup final 2022, Five nil.

    Ok, it's not brilliant but I like the spoken asides about not having a beer because of alcoholism & it not being on Sky.

    It's coming home for Christmas

    It may be almost impossible what with international Wendyball seemingly reaching yet another zenith of corruption and cant, but any more politics on here and it dies.
    We've cautiously allowed one 'Obviously it'll get political' thread because it also contains future 'military history'. (Probably :unsure: ). That doesn't mean I'm not stopping others if they just become places to piss into our main reasonably good-natured well.

    Keep it to Yay, sports team! Do a goal! Who's got the drunkest wife. The referee's undoubtedly an onanist. My country's better than yours at kicking balls. The strange use of 'we' in sport, etc. etc. without a wider level of toss, please.

    I'm looking forward to seeing the players and fans melt in the heat which will I think have a bearing on who might win, so one of the south American must be favourites.

    I've just been told that it's going on until nearly bloody Christmas. If I could live in a country that never mentioned sport on TV, radio or newspapers, I'd be there like a shot...unless they had banned beer, of course.

    Marina Hyde had this to say in The Guardian..."Anyway: is there anything to love about the imminent World Cup? Certainly not the sensational last-minute beer ban. (Although let’s face it – serving only Budweiser was already a de facto beer ban.)"

    I've tried alcohol free Leffe from Inbev and it's horrible.

    A Russian supporter, I presume. :unsure:

    I know, I know. I'll get my coat,


    Now there's the rub.
    Such a country would obviously also have banned beer (And 'hard liquor' as Jeff so charmingly calls it.)
    The dichotomies we must endure, eh.
    I do still maybe have a tolerance for motor sport, but am probably one of those people Owen hates that mostly watch for the crashes.
    (I mean... he hates me for so many other reasons, as do I him, but that's just being British. I would call him a C in the pub, as he would me, and this is right & proper.)

    That is not what Leffe is about.
