World Cup Clichés
I fully expect to be entertained by such old favourites as:
"There's no easy games in international football Clive..."
"Rumours are coming out of the French camp that the players are not fully behind the gaffer Gary..."
"Keep you eyes on [insert name of unheard of player here] who's been strongly linked next season to a move to Championship side Charlton..."
"I agree Lawro, African goalkeepers are often the weak link in the side but that looked decidedly suspicious to me..."
"Well there's Ronaldo's partner in the crowd, it's not a bad life as a footballer is it..."
"The heat in the stadium today reminds me of USA'94, who else remembers it was a bit warm then..?"
"...and as England crash out of the tournament on penalties once again, it's back to the drawing board for Greg Dyke..."
"Well, they'll be celebrating well into the night in Tehran after that shock defeat of Argentina..."
"You're right I'm sure we will know every word of Girl From Impanema by the time we leave for home Alan..."
Plus lots of pervy camera work of course...can't wait for it to start now!

"Spain need to change things, maybe go to a plan B, because it's just not working for them at the minute"
"We're here in Rio, where the samba party atmosphere is in full flight"
"There were lots of worries about the stadiums in brazil being finished on time"
"There were protests about the world cup coming here, but you can now see the brazillian people have really got behind this world cup"
"I just think Rooney just isn't quite as sharp as he usually is for united, Clive"
agree, really can't wait now, the lovely weather has made me feel more excited!2 -
Great goal by Messi but i'm not sure whether he could do that on a cold wet Tuesday night in Huddersfield.1

'It is a shame to think, that is going to be repeated on the school playground tomorrow' - following some kind of simulation/cheating/sly fouling by a high profile player.2

A jokingly said 'Good luck' or 'Easy for you to say' when the Iranian/Algerian/Greek/Bosnian/Croatian/South-Korean line-ups are read out.1

I asked the father of Man City's full back how his son felt about missing out on the French squad.
He said his son would watch the tournament as a fan and would be supporting the team 100%.
Then I thought to myself - thats an Old Clichy.0 -

Some sort of penalty remark/stereotype if Germany go to penalties - or German officials are invovled in penalties - or USA have penalties - any connection to Germany when penalties are happening...grumpyaddick said:
