I want to boycott it now, I was cheering for the Celts but the Africans cheated. I'm mostly angry at FIFA who will let this pass as cheating is fine to them![]()

Well, what a great ambassador for the game Thierry Henry is!
Adored by the media for his campaigns against "racism" in football but so sadly lacking in basic honesty when playing this same sport. You'd have thought that such a role model, always keen to point out other peoples' shortcomings, would set himself higher standards.
Personally, I much prefer "racists" to sly and devious individuals like Thierry Henry.
I trust them far more!
This is ridiculous, indeed. What an anticlimax. There will come a time when it's impossible to decide a game with a hand ball, but for now FIFA is not interested in using modern technology to make it possible to avoid a drama like the one of last night. It's not only just Henry (who's not a real Frenchman anyway), I think the French number 17, Sébastien Squill, played the ball with his hands as well as he tried to find Henry in the point of the French attack - and the goal was offside anyway.
Henry should hang his head in shame.Worse, he says there was no hands at all. 40 years from now people will still recall how he ruined a fantastic, intense game.
It's disgraceful, and sad. Also because the Irish play with an all Irish team, and half of France's team is African - and the Irish have cool fans, so they're always very welcome at big tournaments.
The French can consider themselves lucky they didn't have to play their final game against a team from the Balkan, like Bosnia, in Sarajevo. If Henry would've pulled that crap over there, it would've caused a huge riot.
"Our country is ourselves. It is our villages, our altars, our graves, all that our fathers loved before us. Our country is our Faith, our land, our King. . . But their country — what is it? Do you understand? Do you? . . . They have it in their brains; we have it under our feet. . ." - François-Athanase Charette
So, he's a liar as well then.he says there was no hands at all.
I'm not the least bit surprised by this!![]()
When watching games on GOL-TV and FSC, the advertising crawler along the pitch plugs 'Say No to Racism."
This is a backhanded PC way of saying "SayNo to Nationalism." Surrender to the Centralized State, lose your national sovereignty and your culture. It's disgusting for the World Order types to use sport as propaganda.
That thing with the France-Ireland game disgusted me. It wasn't fair and Henry had the audacity to no concede his error and actually celebrate the goal afterwards. It seems like honour is a thing that is dying out.
As for this, I think this sort of thing is more targeted at club football (eg, UEFA) where you have a lot more races playing together as citizenship is irrelevant basically. The only really racist things I've seen happening was in some European league game a few years ago people threw bananas at some black player. That too is not an honourable thing to do, kind of childish.When watching games on GOL-TV and FSC, the advertising crawler along the pitch plugs 'Say No to Racism."

Seemingly though having this sign as a part of sport is growing. I was surprised to see it at the university rugby stadium when it was the final between Stellenbosch and Cape Town universities (in South Africa if you don't know).
Some teams that seem mostly Germanic are Denmark, New Zealand, Germany. I'm not sure how many immigrants there are on the German team at the moment though. England and the Netherlands has quite a few.![]()
This is precisely the reason why I won't be supporting England in the World Cup. I don't see our team as being representatiive of Englishness and if we ever won the tournament it would be a huge propaganda coup for the multiculturalists, almost certainly followed by knighthoods for the players concerned.
I'm supporting England, they've always been my favorite team, even including club teams.
I'd say to anyone who is persuaded against England because of their non-English players, remember that this team represents England and that's something you can be proud of. Even if the entire starting XI were black, it'll still always be the team of Moore, Charlton, Hurst, etc. That said, I'd certainly like some more 'classic' Englishmen on the team, like Scholes and Carragher. Shame they retired.
I really wish they hadn't drawn the US, because I wanted to avoid the awkwardness of rooting against my own country's team. I look at it like this: more joy will be created by the England team's success than the US team's success. If the US wins, it may not even make the front of the sports section, let alone the front page. If England won, I can't even imagine what it would be like. When I was there for a year, I heard people talking about '66, and that was over 40 years ago.
