World Cup Nonsense

[Sweder]

At least with the Beeb you can hit the fabled red button and listen to the 5 Live commentary featuring, ideally, the legendary Alan Green ranting at the moon.

Well said.
I cannot suffer Jonathan Pearce for another breathless, squealing minute :mad: Alan Green-lite, his 'passion' always sounds contrived (although I am aware his credentials as a die-hard Bristol City fan are in order).

Speaking of Greenie, did you hear his commentary (with Chris Waddle) on the Australia/ Croatia match? Our Al almost exploded as the Thing from Tring committed World Cup Hari Kari, but Waddle stole the show.
'He'll be on Play Your Cards Right next week' quipped the twinkle-toed Geordie.

I think Le Saux heard he wouldn't be going to Germany for the duration and spat the dummy. Just now I'd drive him there myself if I could bring Pearce and Wrighty back with me. (It's OK, I've got an i-Pod).
