Old tweets are such a boring way to ruin people's lives.
The only thing is one good performance and he could walk off the pitch in a balaclava singing Celtic Symphony and nobody will give a shit.Quote:

How did my boy Islambek Kuat do for Kazakhstan? :cool:
EDIT: apparently he assisted the second.
Sancho starting :drool:
Dier binning it in to give Declan Rice a debut the madman.
The meejah won't know how to react to that.
They might have to re-print that article about his mum still living in a housing association gaff for balance.
Is calling it The Czech Republic a hate crime now or something, when did that change?
It's Czechia, isn't it? For some reason it just sounds wrong in English.
Yeah, I thought they wanted to be Czechia now (how I was going to spell it anyway) but I guess we've met them half way with the 'the' thing which seems to really piss off certain quarters.
Still THE United Kingdom, natch.
Was the first goal offside? It sort of looked like it was. And then a dodgy pen. Happy days.
I don't know who wanted it to be "Czechia". We certainly didn't, and if you come to Prague and call it that you'll get assaulted
We're a bit like that with Opal Fruits.
In 2013, Czech president Miloš Zeman recommended the wider official use of Czechia,[37] and on 14 April 2016, the government agreed to make Czechia the official short name.[38] The new name was approved by the Czech cabinet on 2 May 2016 and registered on July 5, 2016.Quote:

EDIT: Should honestly also do away with the weird Polish “cz” spelling the English-speaking world uses. It’s not helpful to anyone
Never knew they had a different name in the UK, the american capitalist machine putters alongQuote:

That one too?!
We won Coco Pops though :cool:
No booing :(
England’s team is amazing. Sancho and CHO with Sterling as well. Oh my fuck
Henderson tho. Lol
Surely Rice replaces him or that other joker Dier now that he's had his little slap on the knuckles.Quote:

I'm normally a youth sceptic, but Sarri failing to use Hudson-Odoi at this point really is a joke. I just wish we would stop hiring Italian coaches, they are all the bloody same.
Chechnya really have been unfeasibly unlucky.
I genuinely called something to vote for coco pops.Quote:

They were favourites pre match as well. Lithuania are probably the worst footballing nation in Europe.
Just below Armenia, who scrape past by virtue of having a single player anyone has ever heard of.
Moldova shirley.
You'd imagine Andorra, Gibraltar, and San Marino would have to be worse.
Remember when Latvia made it to Euro 2004?
And would have beaten the Germans with an honest referee. They had some no-mark, 20/20 acceleration and pace cheat causing all sorts of havoc.
Possibly. Moldova's club coefficient is about five places higher than Lithuania so it's a close call.Quote:

It was Maris Verpakovskis apparently.Quote:

Latvia - Czech was the first football match i ever remember watching, was in a pub somewhere in the countryside. As a 7 year old i was convinced Latvia were a powerhouse for the next five years or so
They beat the Swiss in '08 in the qualifying campaign for 2010.Quote:

I believe that's their best win.
There was Jankauskas and I’m pretty sure there was a Lithuanian defender who played a few seasons in the Premier league. I’m not saying they’re shit or anything but they have had a handful of “decent” players.Quote:

Makes you wonder why he never toned down his black man antics sooner. Well done the tabloids for giving him a bit of focus.
I still dont understand how in some sports, people are Team United Kingdom or Great Britain like in Athletics but in football, you have individual England, Scotland, etc.
