World Cup
« on: June 10, 2026, 08:49:24 pm »
Starts 18:00 tomorrow, live on Sky Sports.

Decent chance for Ireland to get out of Group D (Ireland, Singapore, Gibraltar).
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.

This will be the most corrupt World Cup of all Times Red Cards and sending offs to get the right results .Last 8 England,France ,Holland ,Germany Spain .Japan ,Argentina ,Brazil ..Two European teams in the final for the TV money .Best result for Fifa Final between England and Spain .Mexico are dark horses if the Game is Rigged .USA are worse than Ireland ,Canada are league of Ireland Standard .The race for the fast exit will be between Portugal and Germany with only one of them making last 8 .My pick is Spain love to see Brazil back to their best but do they have a striker ?

Irish Womens team could qualify for Girls World Cup Every Chinease Mr Woo has his chopsticks crossed for that as the Housewives will want to watch every moment of this massivly growing entertaining Sport .According to people who know Womens soccer is the 53 most watched sport in the world .Bid Dommo once watched a Game live in the Brickers Lourdes Celtic beat Dolphin Dynamose 34-7 in the ist round of the cup .

World Cup What Iffs .Could a team Withdraw or certain players refuse to play ?
 A terror attack a stampede in Stadiun Match abandoned ?
Tournament Abandoned ?
 Cartel attack on Team or stadium in Mexico ?
Trump dies final delayed so people can celebrate ?
 Russia moves on Ukraine .Isreal on Iran World war 3 declared ?
 Elon Musk announces his team of interstellar Players or Robots will take on the Winners in Richmond Park ?
Or Us Stock market crashes rioting on the streets games moved out of USA ?
England get to Final King Charlie refuses to attend sends the youngfella Trump invites the Red headed Youngfella to join Him in the Guest Box to annoy the King in Waiting .
 
The most interesting part of this tournament might be off the pitch .I was Down the Flats last night and Sadie dont know her second name was saying she didnt do the kids tee shirts this time as nobody knows the name of the World Cup Emblen ?Do you ?

It's not a game of two halves anymore!  They were saying on d'radio that there's mandatory water breaks at 23 mins each half.  So the game will played in quarters (like American sports) & there'll be lots and lots of ads  >:(

Back in Italia 90 I bought my first car a Ford Fiesta for £800 notes made money selling tee shirts around the pubs with the FIFA Dog on them and the Name of the Pub .Black Lion Inchicore Supporting Jacks Army .made about 50p on each one sold 46,000 of then throughout Leinster . Kept 3 lads in work printing them in the East Wall enterprise center .

For those who remember Italia 90 whats going on now is more like the Aids Epidemic of the 80 .Nobody knows whats going to happen but everybody is on edge .For what use to be a Must See event for MEN its now a thing that will get in the way of Coronation Street and Shed and Buried .Bigger is not always better .Like the Olympics use to be a must watch now winter olympics and Special Olympics have diluted the Original Idea of the best meeting the best .There are teams in this Tournament would not win a Sunday League Game on the Lawns in Ballyfermot .St Francis have a better Ground in Baldonnell than some of their National Stadiums .Greed has killed Sport it use to be the Best versus the best to see who was the Best .Now it just about Money .The Golden Boot could be won in One game mismatch where a striker could get 4 or 5 .

'Praise be to Allah' as Trump might tweet.  A happy ending!

Quote
Somali referee Omar Artan will take charge of Aston Villa’s European Super Cup showdown with Paris St Germain after seeing his World Cup dream dashed.

Governing body UEFA has appointed the 34-year-old, who was refused entry to the United States earlier this week, to officiate in the game between the Europa League and Champions League winners in Salzburg on August 12.

The Mighty Americans have taken the Tournament by Storm .Lallas the Big Red headed lad who played for them years ago recons they could go to the Semis .Harry Kane has to win Golden Boot somebody stole his and the English Kit Bags .Think that happened last time England were near Mexico Bobby Moore charged with Robbing Necklace .Trump will say Black English Players got their Immigrant Cousins to steal their Stuff .

i caught a chunk of america's game last night. they were very impressive.
they're fans in the crowd were fantastic as well.
i think england will win it. they've been knockin on the door the past couple of tournaments. they'll say it's ironic they could only win it with a kraut managing them.
i heard they're yanking up the tournament. lots of stoppin and startin for water breaks. that'll suit them.
remember andres escobar from usa 94 that was murdered. i saw that a gangster who was implicated was hit himself recently.
