Who agree's this has been one of the shittest World Cups ever!!

First of Refs are ruining the fucking game, secondly tossers like Rio Ferdinand coming out saying who cares about the performance?? Er Rio are you forgetting something the fans, you know the ones who pay your £120k a week!!

I think entertainment value has been shit and i have lost intrest unless its a big game like tonight France Spain, but other than that im only really watching England which is almost like watching paint dry.

lets hope the 1/4 bring some better games.

know what you are saying but if we go all the way scraping dull 1-0 wins and lift the cup I would gladly take that !

The Mexicans, Swedes and Dutch have all gone home haveing played some good football , much better than us - but I know which situation they would prefer !

refs have been stark raving mad this world cup. I think its been a good world cup. best game for me was argentina v mexico on saturday.

The refs have been mad but we have seen some great goals,we have seen history being made with Ronaldo,we have seen 1 of THE greatest goals ever(Argentina) and we are only at the quarters. The only thing I can say is that Ukraine v the Swiss was truly a shamble and a disgrace to footy. This is the world friggin cup,you're here to win the greatest tournament ever and what about all those fans who paid thousands to see that tripe!! It was a disgrace!

its football mate its always gonna be shit ;)

Maybe it's me but i remember Euro 2004, being fucking awesome, i suppose it might be to do with the fact thats when England went into matches looking to murder the opposistion rather than go one goal up and then see it out, but for some reason i thought it would be better than this, like yesterday the Aus italy match aswell as Switzerland - Ukraine matches where pretty poor by all accounts.

women from the toon.....

I met my current girlfriend in Newcastle.

I said to her "What the hell are you doing here ?"

you smooth talking bastard ;D

I dissagree, I think this has been one hell of a world cup. As the game said, quality goals and a bit of history, plus the bonus of the portugal/dutch game, I haven't laughed so hard and for so long in years. Admit that swiss/ukraine was pretty shit, but in previous tournaments (world cup 98 and euro 2004 shining examples) most games were played out to a fucking 0-0 draw or scrambled 1-0 win.

last night was horrible. I've enjoyed it for the most part, the smaller footballing nations have been giving the big boys a scare.

I think this has been a great world cup for the neutrals to watch!Every world cup has its crap games but there has been some crackers at this one. ;D

What world cup, has there been one on?

:-*

Do you still think it's been a good World Cup?

I think personally its been shite especially the knocl out games, id say only Zidane has performed out of the big boys, the others didnt even turn up, and i heard a fact yesterday the best player in the world the one and only Ronaldhino was second in most missed passses in the World Cup!!

For me not agreat World Cup, Mexico Argentina was the only game i thought what a match !! Other than that nothing did it for me.

Disappointing World Cup:

- way too much diving and theatricals, players rolling around trying to get others sent off
- The big Boys being generally poor (Brazil , Holland)
- Africa and the smaller countries not making much impression
- boring games (any Swiss ones)
- France are doing well, which I dislike as a matter of principle
- Our home team being being arrogant (performances don't matter) and complacent (we will win the world cup) and then showing themselves to be extremely mediocre.

Rio - you are paid to entertain people. People remember Brazil in 1982 becasue they were entertaining, not because they ground out results, you duck-lipped fuckhead.

That said there have been some good moments, so its not the worst world cup ever:

- Ronaldo breaking the goal record, though he let himself and his fans down by being unfit.
- The Argies were a good side, their goal was excellent
- Italy/Germany semi was a really really good game

Italy Germany saved it for me,a classic. Both teams played with the correct intentions:to score.
