Vacamion

Jesus. Four pages of loft puns. Not much info about the player. If ever sign a player with a name like "Fish" or "Cheese" you lot will go crackers.

Would be even more hilarious if they struggle again and their fans go crackers again.

VAR is the tool. The reffing when using it is the problem. Still think it’s better getting to see contentious incidents and make a more informed decision that not having the facility.

That ref ain’t going on holiday to Croatia any time soon...

France are becoming the implacable tournament enemy for Croatia. Just like Germany and Portugal became for England.

Glenn Hoddle has recorded the beeb's coverage to watch later with the sound down..

Soft. I can see why he's given it, but I'm not sure the video evidence was conclusive. Hope that's not the decider.

Shearer will be incandescent.

My Serbo-Croat isn't all that, but I think that chant they do is more "You're going home in a fvckin ambulance" than "Abide with me"

Another ding dong game.... Qatar will never live up to this world cup.

Lovely goal. Belgium are better than England. And that's that.

This tournament is ending fittingly. Defeat. On ITV. By a decent side. It's hot. With Hoddle making me feel slightly sleepy. The brass band has been playing the same three songs.

My Dad’s been dead 10 years. But I’m pretty sure I just heard him shout YOU BLEDDEH PINEAPPLE, STERLING.

Rose. Not great. But good from them...

“Four a.m. in the morning” TO THE PEDANTRY THREAD.....
