@stoolpresidente About as entertaining as watching a bloke eat a slice of pizza

If that was the only soccer game Id ever seen Id never watch again What a snoozer

@pdfuria Well everyone said France had it in the bag, so we'll see won't we

@robstaton That was exquisite team soccer - Arg / Eng are playing for second place

Absolute masterclass from Spain. France haven’t turned up

Spain were excellent and deserve a huge amount of credit. But it’s also stunning just how bad France were. Didn’t threaten at all. 0.3 xG.

@Philg2012 France have still been way off their best. An absolute mile off. That doesn’t warrant arguing about

@robstaton Spain are European champions, got best defence n shape and beaten France in last 2 meetings. French midfield just not been able to get into the game and unable to disrupt the Spanish tempo

@marcusdibley I said it was a masterclass. But let’s not put this French display *all* on Spain. It’s ok to say they’ve been absolute dross

@robstaton Spain simply hasn’t let France play. Their game craft, teamwork and technical ability are on a completely different level.

@Philg2012 It’s not just down to that. France have been dreadful. Way off their best

@robstaton Haven't Spain just stopped France from 'turning up' . Controlled the game n defended well yet again

Get the cards out ref. You can’t be allowed to delay a penalty like this

@Seahawk_1205 🙏🙏🙏

@robstaton As a fellow English Seahawks fan of over 40 years... Where do we go if England win the World Cup in the same year as the Seahawks winning the SB. There's nothing left on the sporting bucket list bar QPR winning the Champions league and that's kinda unlikely.

If you want to feel optimistic, there are growing similarities between Germany's 2014 World Cup win and England in 2026: - Scored four goals in the opening game against a good team - Drew with Ghana in the second game - Pushed by an unfancied African team in the first knock-out game, before winning 2-1 - Knocked out the hosts Maybe they'll also hammer a South American powerhouse in the semi's?

@afneil It’s one of the all time most ridiculous tweets

Really? Why on earth would a football match be allowed to determine a matter of sovereignty and democracy? It’s just football (not even a proper sport like cricket or rugby). If we win Wednesday but lose to Spain Sunday are the Falklands safe but we have to surrender Gibraltar?

@JohnSimpsonNews Here’s an idea. Let a football match be a football match. And forget the politics.

Argentina v England is important way beyond football. If Argentina wins tomorrow night, it’ll put real fire behind the demand for the Falklands. If England wins, that should put the lid on it — for now.

@beardedtyke @ScottyFEFL There’s no change. It’s just administrative.

@robstaton @ScottyFEFL There must be some change Rob. Neerav has taken an extra 9% from somebody on the board to legally hit 75%. Plus the BFC investment group Ltd has a Cessation notice as the controlling stake and BFC Limited with Neerav having 75% control has taken over

For #BarnsleyFC fans asking about this, my understanding is this is an administrative update to ensure compliance with Companies House requirements regarding the PSC register. There's no change to the ownership & doesn't reflect any new investment or acquisition of shares.

Genius

@DBHawks19 🙏

@robstaton had to go thru the 2014 Seahawks SB for a wk plus leading up to SB. Now he has to go thru hand of God talk all wk. Hopefully same outcome as Seahawks!

@geoffschwartz Guessing a 4.43 short shuttle

Two things Feel bad for this dude. He’s far away. Buffalo seeks him out and he’s 10 feet into the air Holy heck the movement skills for this beast. Look at that tight turn around the tree. Then acceleration into a finish.
