craig

YOU watched most.... I struggled to watch any as the times didn't suit - obviously watched the weekend games - that is... the ones when I didn't realise the KO was earlier than I thought

Venice for a couple nights, Pisa/Florence for one night, Rome for 4 nights and Naples/Pompei for one night.... then off to Amsterdam for 3 nights (and will be trying to get tickets for the Ajax vs Twente game whilst there). How was Rome Colsh ?

Back on topic.... Domenech says that he is disappointed that ZZ did what he did but said he could understand it - which leads me to believe that he WAS provoked (which most of us suspected anyway). Still not defending the indefensible though.

lol !! Yeah, I thought that was what it was Colsh - my concept of foreign languages is PISH !! And i am off to Italy in November, should be interesting....

RESULT !!!!!!!!!!

Maybe we WILL win Mr & Mrs Colsh Or is that you and Jon ?

Am I missing something Jon ? I thought this was light-hearted banter - am I offending you Colsh ?

You shut it or I'll get Smalce back on to you

Nah, you are alright - I get the gist and I am sure it wasn't that important that I urgently need to know what you typed

Enjoy the last word Colsh - as I said, no desire to argue this evening. And no you can't get a week off work - you have already had 4 to sit and watch footy so get back to the job. And if you are going to take everything I say seriously either I need to not post ANYTHING humourous or you need to look at my posts differently sometimes.

They will see sense when they see it. The only thing for them to have to consider is what they feel for ZZ in light of his actions. I don't think we have heard the last of it either BTW - wonder if we will ever hear the truth.

lol wija - even when I translate it I can't make sense of it - so maybe it WAS Colshy's own work after all....

That IS a mad rumour Danny - and not least because the mere fact that he played any part in the game renders him a contender for drug testing. So getting sent off would not preclude him from being part of the testing - it is not just players that finish the game that can be tested.

My first comment was in jest about you not knowing Colsh, don't take everything I say seriously. Re the American slang, does it annoy you ? And as for Barbados, I have never been there, not that it is American anyway...... As for the nipple tweak comment I was complimenting you on seeing something that was difficult to see, and finishing up with a joke - but obviusly you are in much too serious a mood this evening and I have no desire to get into an argument with you over something so trivial ! There is NO DOUBT ZZ had to go and I personally don't think anyone that commented in this thread feels you are suggesting he didn't - I think you are being over-sensitive. ZZ had to go, no doubt. And given the type of player and person he seems to be I think that it is so out of character for him that it was, at least for me, blatantly obvious that Materrazi did or said something pretty extreme.

Wonder if ZZ will get a 4 match bad or similar ? Not that it makes a difference......

You use Google translate Colshy ?

Sorry Danny, I edited my post about spitting being alleged - some have refuted it so I just pulled my post. Nothing can condone the action though

Just a shame that it ended this way for ZZ - he could have done some real damage to the guy

Beckham, Gary Neville, Figo, Lehmann, Kahn

ZZ really cracked him one as well huh ? That had to have been painful ! A shame to see his career finish that way though

To be fair too though geo - EVERY Italian penalty was a quality penalty !!

I reckon Italy will take this - Buffon looks HUGE in net

I think it was the 4th official and not the linesman - will be interesting to see what that was all about though geo

how da fuck do you know what Materrazi says ?? Nice work with the nipple tweak though..... you like watching 2 guys do that ?

What in EARTH was Zidane doing there with that header into Materrazi. Would be interested to know what Materrazi said to Zidane ?
