I turned off the game after that red card - what a f****ng travesty.

I'm seriously enjoying The World Cup this year.
I like drinking beer at lunch and watching TV.
Americans, particularly rich ones who run legendary football clubs (and by virtue legendary British institutions) by piling them up with miilions of pounds of debt, are not the most popular people in the red sides of Liverpool or Manchester at the moment!
Still burning the flag is a bit much
Here's what the English soccer fans were posting a couple weeks ago:

Why don't you be honest. Not all of those rich Americans are poor owners. I know that Cleveland Browns owner Randy Lerner has been fantastic for Aston Villa. I can't vouch for other Americans, but Randy Lerner is good people. Which isn't surprising since he's a Northeast Ohio dude.
The best thing that ever happened to Aston Villa FC is that a nice Ohio billionaire bought the team.
I didn't mention Birmingham in my places where rich American debt runners are not popular. I know Randy Lerner is well respected for what he's done in both England and the States.
I think he sanctioned the transfer of Emile Heskey for example! (Joke)
I think the World Cup hasn't started too well. Teams nervous and maybe unfamiliar with the ball. A lot of skied shots from distance.
Having said that, there have been some high points, honest endeavour, some surprises, and things should liven up as we come to the last games of the group stage.
The Refs have been of variable quality. Some blow for the slightest nudge, others let the game flow. It's a pity when games are spoilt by poor decisions.
Reading through the thread, is mozsupportsrovers the only England supporter who has confidence in the team!
I think since the Spanish defeat against Switzerland (and arguably North Korea against Brazil) this World Cup has rapidly improved. Up till last night. They took Corrie off for that!
Your British corporation wrecked the Gulf of Mexico and your British politicians can only go on about how they're "concerned" about the anti-BP rhetoric in America. I can only imagine what the English would be saying if an American corporation had done such evil to England's environment.
