    I hadn't seen that Lampard goal in ages.  It really is breathtaking just how in it looked even in real time, but still got disallowed.  The fucker bounced behind the line, came visibly back out, then bounced again on the line before Neuer half-heartedly grabbed at it.  I can only imagine we'd still be furious about it now if it happened to us.  Granted, it's probably not worth it to them, given it would likely have meant they got pumped 4-2 rather than 4-1.

    It's all very well people trying to sit above all that stuff, and talk about how they won dirty, or are cheats, but fucking hell I wish both Scotland and Thistle could have people that are willing to be such unapologetic dicks. 

    No , we have had and we got Karma

    I see it exactly the same as the Marshall memes after he let in that goal.

    I would question anyone's motives if they were to bring race into it, the image is pretty iconic, for me it shows Chiellini's willingness to cheat to win at any cost, he didn't give it a 2nd thought when he pulled Saka back.

    Got f**k all to do with Saka's skin colour imo.

    Of course not. I'd be surprised if there's many meme-makers (memewrights? memesmiths?) old enough to really have taken notice of Enke's suicide at the time. I made the connection, but wouldn't say I was offended. Just noticing that everyone is jumping to the race angle, when the only racist bit I've seen over this foul wasn't in any of the many memes and gifs doing the rounds - rather, it was in the (apparently serious) attempt by some loon trying to get a petition up to replay the final. 

    So, I found the portrayal of the train gif/meme to be in bad taste, but I understand why others wouldn't know.

    I find the immediate jump by many to frame this in terms of race lazy and, yes, offensive.

    And I foulnd the petition for the replay sad, offensive, and pretty damn funny (if serious, still a better gag (without the slave comment)if its fake.

    Missing such an important penalty cannot be good for one s well being.

    Relatively recently Don Masson released his book , and his failure against Peru was still a large topic of conversation

    Just thinking about how close Southgate came to being a legend as opposed to not !

    Even though his team was on the defensive side he very , very nearly did the job. Would any other ( realistic ) choice of manager been as successful ?

    ( with a more creative team )

    Glad to hear that going on telly in blackface with a pineapple on your head for a hilarious impression, causing the player to face specific abuse throughout the rest of his career, and never apologizing to the person in question while setting yourself up as a moral arbiter on racism, was not racist because it was in 1996.

    One of them might have known better considering he is of a minority

    Lee Dixon fell silent as soon as Donnarumma saved the final penalty and never uttered a single word thereafter.
    Genuinely think he stormed out the studio in a huff as Matterface had to gonsolo for a good 10 minutes.

    We need the footage of him angrily taking his headset off, throwing it to the ground and PeirsMorganning out of the studio.

    or for us ( non ) da s Nott (?) and Sir Robin Day

     

    or 3 for 1 , the BGs and Clive ( ? )

    Similar to my experience. Those who follow football were a lot more restrained during the tournament, and especially in the run-up to last night. Those who don't follow the game, but got swept up in the hysteria, were convinced "it was coming home".*

    *Loathsome fucking phrase, imho. Just one more reason for Baddiel to be flayed and dipped in salt.

     

    or a legendary hot shot to kick his, or Skinner's ( same difference ) , backside
