FIFA World Cup 2010 - Group Stage

Probably Timmy McCarthy you’re thinking of. He definitely did Donegal v Antrim last year anyway. Tony O’Hehir the racing commentator got a couple of GAA matches during the 1998 World Cup. He was dreadful.

He’s a protestant. They all look like that.

+1 dickhead of a man

Plenty of heart and seoul about this korean side…

Horrible mistake at the back but a splendidly taken goal by Ji Sung Park and the Korean’s deservedly lead by 2 now.

Lovely finish by Park Ji Sung there. Greece are muck.

:clap:

Both Dunphy and Giles highlighted him as Korea’s biggest dangerman.

What referee have England sent to the world cup??? Howard Webb???

Seoul destroying for the Greeks that goal was

Irwin aint no Prod.

Samaras is such an ineffective player for the most part. This rigid 4-5-1 certainly hasn’t worked for Greece. The Koreans are moving the ball around nicely and they have a bit of pace - should progress from the group with this win behind them.

Greece could badly do with the likes of Nicos Dabizas…Korea should have been three to the good there

Or Dellas.

The Koreans have a fine World Cup pedigree and they’ve proved they have the bite to match their bark, although they’ve made a dog’s dinner of a couple of chances. Park’s girlfriend is a complete hound but he thinks she’s good enough to eat. Each to their own I suppose.

Korea defending a bit carelessly now. Greece have had a couple of chances.

The vuvuzelas are really adding to these magnificent occasions for me.

Bzzzzzzzzz

The voozyvayleys are attracting a lot of flak for being annoying but you do forget about them after a while. However, I’ve just noticed in this game that the horns actually make a bollix of the atmosphere of the game. Even when there’s a great chance for one of the teams the crowd noise hardly changes from the incessant drone. A few times I’ve thought whistle must have gone as a lad goes through as there’s no audible roar from the crowd.

My pal ClarkeyCat and I were speaking about your point on atmosphere earlier. Those yokes ruin it - even when Korea scored, there was just the same incessant drone from them.

A small price to pay

Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Richardson is just too negative.

Your man didn’t dally on it when he was in there, it was a good tackle. But he’s from the Ray Houghton school of commentary and reckons every possession that doesn’t result in a goal is a mistake by the attacker.
