Scotland vs Italy

[ZAMB]

Have to beat Spain and hope Sweden lose at home to Latvia to go through,they've put us in the RoI to shame with their campaign

Shame that we don't get a thread of our own to celebrate on. However, I'm not all that surprised, as bloody Talksport has been refusing to acknowledge all week that we even still had a chance. That 'charming' Scot, Alan Brazil, just said our chances against Spain were laughable - topic closed.
Poor old Nigel Worthington even phoned the station to complain about their attitude to the NI games this week.

2-1 was great, though.

I wonder if they will change their attitude now that Healy has broken the goal scoring record, though, and start proclaiming it as a great British achievement? It would be typical of their hypocrisy as far as NI is concerned.

 

[Halibut]

excellent result for Italy. splendid stuff, enjoyed every minute.

I hope your next shite is a hedgehog

yep i look forward to future gameshows asking 'Which british footballer holds the european qualifying goal scoring record?'.

fucking cunts.

 

[Yossarian]

I give up - which British footballer holds the European qualifying goal scoring record? I guess Healy has the UK one...

unlucky kid, Northern Ireland isn't part of Britain (the geographical entity) but Northern Ireland citizens with UK passports are classed as British or at times when they are caught up in some crime, natural disaster or warzone are better known in the papers as 'Britons'.

 

[ziconess]

I blame the fuckin maroon Jersies in Georgia.

Apart from that Scotland have been fantastic. A wonderful campaign & tonight's game was a real emotional rollercoaster. Why McFadden shot instead of crossed is a cunt but the miss a couple of minutes later!!! ARRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!11111!1!!

However, we'll always have Paris!

I heart McFadden!

well I do apologise for supporting Italy in every game they play.

I'd be just as pleased if it were Cyprus or Moldova they'd beaten last night.

Forza Azzuri

[Balbi]

LOL. Fascism.

 

[JTG]

Do you have a point to make other than xenophobic comments on Italy?

 

[revol68]

yes, they are cheating scum fucks who despite having not sorted out their crowd trouble, corruption and fash saluting players still remain untouchable by UEFA and FIFA, they also bore the shit out of me every final they are in.

are you drunk?

 

[revol68]

More tar for your brush sir?

yes and their men folk seem to think that wearing pink D&G tshirts tucked into yellow slacks is the height of heterosexual maculinity.

They do however have fantastic ice cream, coffee and food in general.

 

[revol68]

aye i've been on the bitter all night.

You've been dumped for some Roman Adonis. I'll have a pint of that bitter

Jittug - good result for your lot yesterday

a fucking criminal result, how the fuck the ref gave a foul to Italy, god and some Swiss bankers (probably) only knows.

 

[JTG]

ah right so we're now bordering on homophobia as well as xenophobia and other broad generalisations.

Splendid, carry on

Balbi - yeah, last minute winners are fucking brilliant, even when you've been gash all afternoon and never deserved it

Shouldnae you be whinging about the Wales penalty in the last minute when that foul was clearly outside the box?

nothing homophobic about it, nor is there anything xenophobic about pointing out the kid gloves Italian football is treated with.

Next you'll be telling me pointing out the english football team is shite and their fans the most hysterical bunch of tabliod led fuckwits on this green earth is xenophobic too.

why would I give a fuck about the RoI, sure they have more English playing for them than Arsenal.

 

[JTG]

ah yes, you are bearing the torch of truth, shining it into the darkest recesses of international football that we lesser mortals may be illuminated

thank you kindly sir, please continue with your fascinating broad generalisations about Italy and any other country you care to bring to the discussion. It's most educational

i dunno about that now but the facts remain a) that the italians get away with shite other nations would be slaughtered over and b) Pink D&G t shirts are fucking hideous.

 

[zoltan]

I am fuckin depressed

BUT

the Italians played well - not as much of the theatricals as usual - but excellent in the pissing rain and commited throughout - I cant knock either of the teams here, and I am usually a bit cynical with the Italians

I always said it was 70/30 to the Italians, but Scotlandl didnt give up

The refereeing is another matter and I dont buy into the corruption aspect, even though we all know the Euros would not be the same without the Wirld champions present

Fuck it.


The WC is drawn next week - Scotland are in pot 2, so will be interesting - no Italy this time though....

 

[nino_savatte]

Fucking, twatting ref...what a blind cunt. Was he being paid to do that by the Italians? Cunt.

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

If you lot turn in that kind of performance for the next qualifiers I'm sure you'll be at the 2010 WC

 

[Biffo]

Fucking, twatting ref...what a blind cunt. Was he being paid to do that by the Italians? Cunt.

Do what? Disallow a 2nd legitimate goal for Italy in the first half or award an offside goal to Scotland? The shit decisions were 2 a piece and 2-1 to Italy would have still been the score had those decisions been awarded correctly.

Lets face it, even a 1-1 draw would have seen Scotland knocked out come Weds. Top effort by Scotland though.

He waved away a blatant penalty and his award of the free kick that led to Italy's second goal was wrong. It was a Scotland free kick not an Italian one.
