yoink 321 #26 June 25, 2004 Quote Besides, probably the worst team in history (British soccer terms anyway) is Bon Accord (Aberdeen by any other name), they lost 36-0 to Arbroath a long time ago (1885) in a Scottish cup match. Being from Arbroath, and living in Aberdeen, I take some delight in reminding the locals of his great day. Compounded, by the way, by Dundee's thrashing of Aberdeen 35-0 on the same day. Quote Those are some pretty massive losses... The dodgy referee didn't help matters last night, but that wouldn't have been an issue if we didn't stick to our usual tactic of defending for the rest of the game after going 1 up... and I lost money last night too... dammit. the french better not win... We'll never hear the last of it from Remi! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites skreamer 1 #27 June 25, 2004 Hell that was an entertaining match! The ref really wasn't great, but Portugal played the better football and deserved the win. I was amazed that they only scored 1 goal in the second half and not at least 3 - then again England did have at least 5 people in the box at all times.

Oh, and also it was a bit of a pity that Rooney had to go off... I still reckon that it was cos he couldn't tie his own shoe laces after his boot came off... Skreamer: You're right, we deserved the loss - I'm not angry at that, just bored of bad play by England.

We didn't defend well, but it was well enough to ensure that we were on level terms towards the end, and then we created the opportunity to win. And then we took it. And then it was taken from us, not by the other team, but by the man in black. We've got a great team, and we keep getting close just to get unlucky. We won't be unlucky forever...

After we scored the first goal we sat back and spent most of the rest of the game in our own half. We looked knackered and they looked physically stronger than us for most of the match. I think most people here are just upset about the circumstances of us losing though. Despite them playing better than us and some extremely biased refereeing, we managed to get a crucial goal right at the end of the game to have it disallowed. The decision was attrocious because the ref was no-where near the incident and couldn't have had a decent view, and even the lino (I apologise, Referees Assistant) gave the goal. So after a weak decision from the bastard in black (who incidentally is Swiss and we beat them 3-0 last week - coincidence?) we ended up doing extra time and then having to go for the lottery that is penalties which we ultimately lost. But hey thats football I suppose, we should all be used to biased refereeing and shocking decision making by now. Never mind though, its only another 2 years til the World Cup where we can try again. Anyway, rant over, its very nearly the weekend (1.5hrs left to go at work - woo!) then I'm going to go and jump and take my mind off it. ~~~ London Skydivers ~~~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites skreamer 1 #36 June 25, 2004 QuoteThe entire team!
