And I wonder what that means...
Somewhere with an abundance of human rights violations.
Sounds like a shite idea. I don’t mind the expansion and neighbouring countries hosting but to play 3 games in South America and than have the rest of the tournament in Spain Portugal and moroco sounds shite.
He was serious about that stadium, weren't you?
Think it was a typo Monkman, think he meant Mexico 78Mexico 82 doesn't trip off my tongue
Spain 82 was mint though. First World cup of my lifetime that England made the finals. I remember sprinting to my gran's after school and just getting there to see Bryan Robson score against France.Mexico 82 doesn't trip off my tongue
i can just about remember 78, it’s the theme tune more than anything, but 82……Brazil fisting poor Scotland and having their own goal of the tournament competition…….think out of they 13 they scored 10 were contenders.
Denmark were fantastic as were the Russians or Soviet Union as they were.
David Narey should never have scored with that toe poke. He just made them angry. '78 was the first I remember. Archie Gemmil scoring that goal. And I had to listen to the final on the radio in the car as my parents insisted that was the time to drive home from the caravan at Skeg. I sulked for days about that!i can just about remember 78, it’s the theme tune more than anything, but 82……Brazil fisting poor Scotland and having their own goal of the tournament competition…….think out of they 13 they scored 10 were contenders.
Good to see you’ve moved on
, crazy what memories come back Zico in 82, free kick against Scotland, curling it in, after that every time I kicked a ball I’d try and hit a curler as we called it, even if you missed the goal you’d always back it up with “did ya see the curl on it?”
That Brazil side, with Socrates, were magnificent.
Sure he played with a cigarette on the go, also liked a headband so I was a fan early doors ……and while we’re on that kit made by Topper ?
, think maybe apart from the Argentinean Le coq sportif kits is the greatest international kit ever ?
It was the most Brazil side ever - an absolute joy to watch. They should have won it but that game against Italy was weird..
And he finished his career on a real high at Garforth Town.Sure he played with a cigarette on the go, also liked a headband so I was a fan early doors ……and while we’re on that kit made by Topper ?
That Brazil kit indeed is quite probably the greatest international shirt ever.Sure he played with a cigarette on the go, also liked a headband so I was a fan early doors ……and while we’re on that kit made by Topper ?
