I’ve learned a lot from this tournament and these threads and I’m thankful for it. All new to me:

  • Term humdinger/bumbinger

  • Mancini is a golden god carved by Zeus himself

  • “Its Coming Home” (awful song, but the camaraderie is endearing)

  • North Macedonia is an actual country

Things I wish I saw:

  • A bicycle kick

  • One of those rolling/tumbling throw in towards the box you read about.

Still have one game left, maybe all my wishes will come true.

God knows how many tens of thousands of hours I’ve spent watching football and I’ve only seen this once.

(Greatest moment of my life)

Matterface: That’s an extraordinary throw in from Jack Grealish… and it’s… IT’S HARRY MCGUIRE! IT’S STUPENDOUS! (Something about Hamlet)

Because I’m a football fanatic now, I watched Chile vs Brazil in the Copa after a glorious day of the Euro’s. Guy from Chile went back about 15 yards from the line, ducked down real low and had a head of steam about to toss one in. Much to my dismay he teased me and didn’t tumble.

Think it’s been illegalised hasn’t it?

Yeah the one I mentioned wasn’t even a proper one (Iran) cos the referee blew before. An exhilarating couple of seconds though.

Very disappointed that Signori Occhiali e Baffi isn’t in that picture.

Was? He’s still signed up for a couple more years. Nearly 30 years of promoting unhealthy snacks to children. Despicable.

The galaxy brained fbpe crew are flying at the minute.
