so close....

Argentina made a lot of mistakes in the second half, but not as many as Scotland did.

We lost.

I will not blame any one player, it's a team, but wenchpixie and D no doubt know exactly who I'm swearing at right now. It was a team game, the boys done good. Just... not quite enough.

eta okay, so that sounds awful. I sound like such a poor loser right now.

 I am so proud of our boys. They did so well to get this far. They held their own, they played so well. I'm gutted, but hey - we were in the top eight of the world. That's pretty damn good!

All told, those have been four of THE closest, hardest fought, tightest quarter-finals I have ever seen. Comiserations on the result, but your boys did you proud.

The boys done good. The B team held their own against the All Blacks, they *have* to be proud of that.

We made way too many mistakes in this game and Argentina capitalised on them.

I wish I'd been awake yesterday to watch the games, this whole World Cup has been pretty amazing so far. Good luck for the semis! (Really, I mean that!)

Heh. They had me in at work, less than an hour after the strike finished and running one of the LSMs (letter sorting machines) throughout the entirety of the England game. All I could hear of the game was the radio commentator's tone of voice, which was a tad frustrating.

Which might explain the current England/Australia torrent running. :P After all the trash talk beforehand, I feel I owe it to myself to see their faces at the end.

My Boys did not do good. And yes we were lucky....Aganist Georgia!

We were not beaten by France and Argentina, we lay down and let them run over us.

There was something missing from the Irish team, i think it was the ability to Pass the ball to each other. When we finally got that part right, we just couldn't convert it to the scoreline.

At least i am going to get my money back from the office pool, almost makes up for the diaster that was our world cup(the part that does make up for it is the Rabid Anti-England (GAA)head got England andThe office G&*%$$£e got Ireland.) oh well.
