Best Tournament ever so far?

Post by Eaststand »

Now the group stages are over, and despite England underwhelming, this has to be the most enjoyable tournament I can remember, theres been one 0-0 draw, aside from that, every match has been pretty exciting, and the football on display has been to a decent standard.

I cant think of any other tournament that was better aside from euro 96, but thats kinda cheating.

You don't give up, do you?

We win 6-1, Kane is top scorer, but we're underwhelming.

Fucking hell.

Thats my view, calm it down, dont turn this into a troll session. Theres no wrong or right. I think we have been, move on. This threads not for that.

Why load it with your daft England comment then?

Dont start a threat with a comment that will get commented upon then whinge. That's actually stupid.

Nostalgia makes me pluck for 90 or 96.

This tournament has been excellent so far.

Comment upon it then.

Dont just start trolling me.

Say "actually I dont think england have been underwhelming because etc" not just start shouting.

I did in my immediate comment to your OP, which was in no way trolling nor shouting.

Before anyone thinks I'm really old I was only in my early thirties when the World Cup took place in France 1938.

Italy beating Hungary 4-2 in a fantastic final in Paris. Fabulous tournament overall.

I remember thinking at the time "this World Cup thing" could become big for sure.

1970 was the best tournament and the first I remember watching.
I was fucking gutted when I found out I'd missed England winning the cup by a few years. Gutted I tell you.

Exactly.
Baiting with stuff like that then bleating about it afterwards.
Classic internet forum tactic, unfortunately… :rolleyes:
