Well for the next game, they are not Argentina and that should be a good enough reason in anybody's book. For the Morocco game, I would normally support the underdog, but on this occasion, les bleus got my support on account of my wife being French, therefore my children are half French and if you go back a couple of hundred years the Bingers family came over to England from France, so it's in the blood. Down to practicalities within the Bingers household, a happy wife generally means a happy family and it certainly means a better fed Bingers and therefore a happy Bingers. I do, however, understand your concerns. PS for the game before, the three male members of the Bingers family were definitely in the three lions camp.

Allez, allez les Singes qui mangent du fromage et agitent un drapeau blanc. *
For those not ITK, this more or less translates as "Come on you cheese eating surrender monkeys".
I'm trying to compromise with our Daily Heil reading friends.

They truly have. I can't see there being much celebrating in the Bingers household tonight.

It's a bit stressful here. My arms and hands haven't taken this much of a battering since Boy Bingers came into the world - I had bruises for days.

Any body else feeling a bit empty? We needn't have bothered with the tournament, just take penalties and hand the trophy (which looks like it was made by Lindt the chocci people) to the winners. What was decided? Argentina the best team in the world? But we already know that Saudi Arabia are better than them! In the future please leave the winter to proper football and the World Cup can return to being a summer novelty.

Not really, it is what it is. It’s the same for any cup competition. Real Madrid got outplayed in every knockout round in the champions league but were able to win it despite being far from the best team in Europe. Tell the English women’s that these sort of tournaments are worthless and their success is therefore meaningless!. Should the FA cup be scraped because the best team doesn’t always win it?.

For me this is exactly what is the magic of cup competitions is.

I personally thought it was the best World Cup in my lifetime (earliest memory 1978), fantastic shocks, twists and turns. Not too many dull games. England could have won it had everything gone right but glad the Argies did in the end after we bailed out. There was no real stand out team but I think they were the best at the crucial moments. Some of their fast interchange play was next level. I don’t think the new format will add a lot and will set up several dead rubbers in the group stage.

I didn't really mind who won so much as just not liking penalties deciding everything after months of qualifying and weeks of finals. Can't think of another way without replaying the final. It's just that penalties are great for the winners and leave every one else feeling flat, it's an anti climax. If the FA Cup does get scraped I'm sure it can be repaired, not scrapped Never mind back to proper footie on Tuesday.
