What will you eat Spacey?
A baguette plus a couple of vins rouges?
After the game maybe some sour grapes.
Come on France,our near neighbours.

Including half-time you'll be in the pub for 1 3/4 hours. Will you be able to stand at full time after drinking seven pints of Stella?

I just hope refereeing decisions don't unfairly influence the tie, i 'd prefer northern european referees thank you very much as they allow you to tackle

Quickly using google to find this out brings the result: "German lad Felix Brych". Don't know anything about him, do you?

Actually found the info on this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_FIFA_ ... cond_Round

The ref for the 2nd leg is Swedish - looks like you get your wish!

I'm struggling with something that may be swineflu at the moment but hope to be better by then

Pushed myself a little hard when trying to finish my chapter...

Algeria play Egypt in Cairo on Saturday with Egypt needing a 3 goal win to overtake Algeria and qualify. The team bus the players travelled on in Cairo to the hotel was reportedly attacked with windows being smashed, once they were at the hotel 3 of the players had cuts to the head...

......according to the bus driver it was the Algerian players smashing up the bus and smashing the windows, he said it looked very planned.

LOLZ if true!

Additional - Egyptian players claim they were poisoned before the first leg of this match

I hope to spot the French president on the box.

i'd like to get in the french first lady's box


spacey do you think the referees will favour the french as it would be "unthinkable" (says Platini, Blatter, Cruyff and various ex pros, legends of the game, FIFA bigwigs) not to have them at the World cup

[LUX]

no, Gus, Spacey is convinced the whole world is unjustly against our misunderstood Gallic friends.
