Ahhhh!!! Wots up with you, football is great, But there is one thing I hate about it, The players WAGES!!!!!!!!! They get paid just too much ££££££
The amount of money some people earn in a year is what these players earn in a WEEK! The wages should be cut down and the money should be used on something more important such as education for children or medical needs.

i totally disagree!,,,thet should make as much money as you, the public are willing to pay.....would you be willing to take a pay cut? or work for less money just because you can? no you should make as much money as you boss is willing to pay you....supply and demand low supply of football player of that skill, and as such they are in high demand,,,,high demand means higher pay....but i'll save the rest for another thread in the debate room if you choose to start one there.

Holland-Portugal
This was the most bizar soccer match I have ever seen. I think Holland was better, but Portugal maneged to score. And that is what its all about..... or not.... iff you look at the cards that have been showen:
This was the first World Cup match ever with four red cards. It was the third game at this tournament with at least three. The 16 cards shown are a record for a World Cup encounter equalling the Cameroon - Germany fixture at the 2002 tournament.
Iff you look at that then you probebly think its al about getting the most cards!
I hope England wins from Portugal next match and that they kick there behinds for me and the rest of Holland. We have tried but failed.

Portugal Hmm They seem a good side, but lost to them, I think it was in the last European games. 2 goals to one! It was a close game, but maybe will beat them this year, in a way, I am glad we are playing Portugal and not Holland because the Dutch side would beat I think
Now to see the Ozzies and the Italians and Switz and UKR to go head to head today and tomorrow its Brazil and Ghana and Spain and the French!! My favourites to win are Spain and Ghana LoL, then if England qualify against Portugal, then they have a better chance of beating either Spain or Ghana. France and Brazil, welll.... we all know the bad moments that they have given England in the Past LoL
For all us non dutch this means Quarter-finals Germany vs. Argentina - 30 June 2006 - 17.00 Italy vs Ukraine - 30 June 2006 - 21.00 England vs. Portugal - 1 July 2006 - 17.00 Brazil vs. France - 1 July 2006 - 21.00
