ok these are dumb as f*ck. bring back the ussr

Uzbekistan have been nearly at the World Cup for about the last 5 so I hope they don’t get embarrassed here, they’re not a bad team at all. Very defensively sound.

You can work out roughly who we’d play especially later on through who’s winning groups but aside from that, guess second round match ups is literally impossible right now due to the amount of teams. I think the one you really want to avoid is Mexico in the last 16 at the Azteca which does kinda look nailed on. They’re not a great team but altitude, home crowd, our history there, it gives me bad vibes.

It’s almost like having the regarded greatest referee of all time in charge of referees pays off. I did like in the Argentina game last night, the Austrian getting booked after getting pushed but falling over like a fool. The directives of the refs is clearly, you’re here to play football, don’t BS and we’ll let you get on with it.

The permutations thing is so funny because so many people are trying to work things out but you won’t know a thing for sure until the final group game is completed. And I say this as an autistic man that loves a spreadsheet.

Harvey Barnes

If Dembele shoots and the ball is millimetres from going in, but there’s a lightning strike before it goes in, does the goal count?

Glad the ref booked that Austrian player

If they’re ALL BAD, then it shows it’s not the people, it’s the system.

Funny I actually saw Burnham at a new order concert once hahaah (in with the plebs I should add).

A bunch of northerners in main cabinet positions would be the best thing he could do. One of the worst things about Starmer’s cabinet is that they’re all posh southerners which only widens the disconnect.

Nah I think that’ll be Louise Haigh who is again another very good northern MP.

I just hope Burnham’s experience of what he’s done in Manchester pushes him outside of that box. If he doesn’t do it then I don’t think anyone ‘electable’ ever will.

Which is what he should’ve lent into. He’s a massive football fan, his favourite band is Orange Juice, he listens to 6music while cooking with his kids. These are COOL (if not slightly pretentious) things yet he acts like the refbot from robot wars

Although saying all this, when Andy Burnham does his first speech in his stone island gear, the reform voters will soon change their minds.

While this is true, he had a massive mandate and 5 years to do whatever he wanted with it and blew it because he was too cautious and didn’t want to upset the people that wouldn’t like him anyway. So it didn’t really matter what the media thought, he knew the country needed massive changes and he blew his chance so I have little sympathy.

Harsh. There’s not a team I’ve seen yet who’s worked harder than them.

OMG

These a bloody great, defend like heroes, counter like the final furlong at aintree. The way football was supposed to be.

Yes lads, get stuck into these argie wannabe losers

Why not? They were very well organised the other day

Been a decent 0-0 this

UP THE IRAN

If only they picked Faes

Yeah those clowns that support that big nosed monarchist loser Reza Pahlavi
