It's thoroughly enjoyable.

The football has been missing but it's entertaining, probably with the help of this thread 😁

Its strange how many of the iranian team have exactly the same beards.

No input of jersey number fonts that I've seen for today's games.

If Ramos was playing for Hibs he would be a cult hero.

Nearly. Redundant second word and change one consonant in the first.

Apparently he was homeless a few years ago, even when he was a pro footballer.

Really? good knowledge. Hes unconventional but he looks a fine keeper.

Ramos is a superb player. His cheating is an impressive skill in its own right.

Iranian-standard play acting from the Spaniard there.

He's also a beard stylist on the side

Now your being too clever by half.

**nellio** · 20-06-2018 07:40 PM

Iran just brought on the top scorer in the Dutch league. What's he doing on the bench??? Shows they had no ambition to win the game in the first place.

Different stylists for different parts of the beard!

Impressive attention to detail.

***Mon Dieu4*** · 20-06-2018 07:41 PM

Choo choo, that would have been some goal

***One Day Soon*** · 20-06-2018 07:42 PM

Why couldn't these minnows have played like this all game? idiots.

**hibsbollah** · 20-06-2018 07:44 PM

For once i agree with the Tyldesley creature. Morocco have been really unlucky in this group, i think they can get something against Spain in the final game which means the plucky Iranians arent out of it yet.

Think I overdid it last night.

As for tonight, two Adidas fonts cancelling each other out to an extent.

I'll reassert my contention that the ones and sevens are too similar. This however has meant that the Iranian number nineteen, Hosseini, looks like he might be wearing a 79 from a distance. Especially if you're viewing on SD or have had a couple of libations.

I like to think it's deliberate and if there's one thing the modern game is crying out for, it's more symbolic tributes to the overthrow of American-appointed despots through fundamentalist revolution Glenn.

***Mon Dieu4*** · 20-06-2018 07:53 PM

Hahaha wtf was that?

***cabbageandribs1875*** · 20-06-2018 07:53 PM

bit of a sweat waiting on all games today just having 1-0 wins

hfc rd · 20-06-2018 07:53 PM

WTF was that from the thrower 😂

***overdrive*** · 20-06-2018 07:53 PM

What the hell was that all about?

**Lago** · 20-06-2018 07:55 PM

Good result for football.

**heretoday** · 20-06-2018 07:58 PM

Spain are great going forward but a bit rocky at the back. Still, no team is perfect in this World Cup.

***One Day Soon*** · 20-06-2018 07:58 PM

**** me. Why did they decide to screen three 90 minute episodes of the Gilmore Girls exactly when the footy was on today. Hopefully they'll be showing the actual games tomorrow.

***Mibbes Aye*** · 20-06-2018 08:02 PM

A lot of posts slating Iran on here tonight but there wasn't anything like it when we had the Swiss, taking turn about to kick and up-end Neymar. As I posted at the time, I don't think there was an outfield player, including their subs, who wasn't penalised for a foul on him

That's far more cynical football in my book.

I'll see whatever you want to say about that plus anything else football related and then raise you Ramos. Game over.

I love Ramos, reminds me of John McNamee, probably before your time

I said at the time they were involved in rotational fouling.
