From the time I started noticing that the Guardian's power rankings were cursing the higher ranked teams, it never failed to be the case. Every...
Indeed I did.
USA: Upholstery fabric that should have gone on an antique couch or a first-class train seat. Australia: WTF, Australia?! That looks like...
My favourite so far is a ball that went out right in front of the dugouts. EVERYONE around, players and coaches alike, put their arms in the air...
England's "It's Coming Home" crap has already annoyed the hell out of me this morning, but then I saw Vida's Backpfeifengesicht... I perhaps...
It's fascinating how goalkeeper injuries seem to markedly increase when one of the teams is ahead and trying to kill time. Also fascinating that...
To give credit where credit is due, I learnt it from jocasta.
And this is exactly why I don't want either to win. Backpfeifengesicht is a GREAT term for a reason.
Blissett, you're there! You're cheering for football! (What is this moisture in my eyes? I'm quite perplexed.) As for me and tomorrow's match -...
Oh, I'm pretty sure they'll have that too. They dragged Fischer out for a farewell before a match.
Seger's retirment is increasingly likely, given how emotional she has been about not being able to play much during the tournament. Old Yeller...
I'm going off on a bit of a tangent, but right now I'm feeling so very ********ing over the Nu Barbification of women's football. Are we going to have...
I grew up in Scotland. It was so cold that we had to melt the ice off the insides of the windows.

Gianni sporting his usual bored look. Or maybe he's just thinking about his next inspiring speech.
I am not liking how Sweden are playing at the moment. They seem to have reverted to battering ram foootball.
It's the policy of the Swedish Federation: the national teams are welcomed home with a public celebration of any medal, even if it is "only a...
This Guardian podcast (yes, I've trawled practically everything on the site) says Australia and England. So Sweden and Spain then?
Has hell frozen over? Are you cheering for.... football?!
I'm pretty sure I wore something like that in the early 90s.
The ********n Guardian. Looking forward (?) to their power rankings for the final.
Amen to all of the above. So the Guardian power rankings have Australia above England. The crafty basstadz.
It's difficult to know how to get the recipe for success right. I started looking into Spanish verse, but got stuck on a 17th century Mexican nun,...
Oh noooooo! The curse of the Guardian's WWC power rankings is upon us!
The plan to storm the FIFA headquarters in Zurich was foiled when they realised only one of the mob had a passport, and it had expired.
